Zusammenfassung:	A case of recurrent intravenous leiomyomatosis with cardiac extension and a temporally extended presentation is described. Complete excision was achieved employing simultaneous sternotomy and laparotomy and deep hypothermia with circulatory arrest. Coronary revascularization was performed concomitantly with complete tumor resection. Diagnostic, operative, and pathologic considerations are reviewed and a preferred surgical approach discussed.
