Rezumat: Uterine leiomyosarcoma represents a rare malignancy, but it is aggressive and has a poor prognostic. The clinical manifestations are similar to those of leiomyoma, but leiomyosarcoma may present some specific features. In the current case, we present a 42-year-old woman diagnosed with atypical location of a leiomyosarcoma. Furthermore, we present the evolution, along with the surgical and oncological treatment for this rare case. Within a multidisciplinary team, there were practiced uterine artery embolization, partial tumor excision, adjuvant chemotherapy and radical surgical treatment.
Cuvinte cheie: uterine, leiomyosarcoma, leiomyoma, embolization.
