- Abstract
The article presents a case report of a 50-year-old male patient with a history of multiple bilateral pulmonary emboli and who was diagnosed with a spindle cell tumor based on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT). The patient was previously diagnosed with deep venous thrombosis (DVT) because of the appearance of a non-compressible right common femoral vein with minimal flow. A tumor was excised from the femoral vein of the patient.
