Core Tip	A large liposarcoma adhered to and constricted the main trunk and branches of the superior mesenteric vein (SMV). Because of the existence of the collateral circulation, which had been observed by computed tomo­graphic angiography, we resected the eroded SMV and devascularized it without vein grafting. In the case, we were aware of the clinical value of 3D reconstruction, and we believed that the collateral circulation could replace the function of SMV. Moreover, the collateral circulation may have ensured this patient’s postoperative survival. However, the actual condition for the formation of collateral circulation must be explored further.
