Repeated local tumor progressions near the IVC (arrow, a) following PCA procedures for a 5-cm leiomyosarcoma involving the posterior wall of the IVC and replacing the right adrenal (black arrowheads, a). This 90-year-old patient tolerated repeated outpatient PCA procedures (b, d) and maintained a 100% Karnofsky performance status. Progressive calcifications along the involuted tumor rim developed between 12 months (c) and 24 months (d), which also helped define the original tumor margin from newly enhancing adjacent local tumor recurrences (black arrow, c).
