Primary intracranial leiomyosarcomas (LMSs) are unusual tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) affecting all age groups, and are recently, becoming more prevalent in immunosuppressive conditions such as in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. However, only a few
An unusual solid tumor composed of myofibroblasts in an infant with nonimmune hydrops fetalis is presented together with a review of previous cases reported under a variety of different names, most notably congenital leiomyosarcoma. Immunocytochemical, ultrastructural, and flow cytometric data plus
Hydrops fetalis is classically the result of immune mediated intrauterine hemolysis. Increasingly, however, nonimmunologic abnormalities have been associated with fetal anasarca. A number of these are potentially surgically correctable. Four such infants have been treated at the Arkansas Children's
BACKGROUND
When retrohepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) resection is required, for example, for IVC leiomyosarcoma, reconstruction is recommended. This is particularly true when the renal vein confluence is resected to preserve venous outflow, including that of the right kidney.
METHODS
Two patients
Gemcitabine and docetaxel combination chemotherapy is the standard of care for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic leiomyosarcoma of the uterus. Although they are generally well-tolerated agents, they can also cause severe and life-threatening pulmonary toxicities. Here, we describe a
A 62-year-old woman was admitted for the evaluation of pedal edema and ascitis. Echocardiography revealed a right atrial (RA) mass invading the interatrial septum and extending into the inferior vena cava (IVC). Contrast enhanced computerized tomography scan excluded extravascular involvement. An
We report a case of a 47-year-old female who presented with breathlessness and palpitations for two weeks. On clinical evaluation, bilateral pedal edema was noticed. A CT pulmonary angiogram showed a mass in the left atrium causing significant obstruction to cardiovascular outflow. After extensive
Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava is a rare tumor that is usually fatal. The tumor may grow very slowly or occasionally very rapidly, shows extensive local invasion, and metastasizes more frequently than previously believed. Complete surgical resection remains the only potential curative
A 61-year-old woman presented with dementia, 7 years after an operation for retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed enhanced masses with perifocal edema in the bilateral frontal regions and a very small mass in the right medial frontal region. The tumors in the
A 37-year-old patient presented with relapsing edema of the left leg lasting for 3 months. The radiological investigations indicated a thrombotic occlusion of the pelvic veins. Surgery revealed a neoplastic growth within the common femoral vein. Histology corresponded to a leiomyosarcoma of the
A 38-year-old woman had developed an abdominal distention, lower extremity edema, and dyspnea. Imaging examination revealed a large mass in the right atrium which was connected to lesions within the inferior vena cava. Although complete resection of the mass was not possible, partial surgical tumor
Objectives: Leiomyosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm that affects smooth muscle tissue and it is very rare in the field of oral and maxillofcial surgery. The purpose of this study was to obtain information on diagnosis of and treatment
We report a case of leiomyosarcoma of the lower segment of the inferior vena cava in a fifty nine year old man who presented with bilateral leg edema on physical exploration. Ultrasonography, computed tomography scan and intravenous urography demonstrated the existence of a retroperitoneal tumour.
There have been only nine cases of primary bronchopulmonary leiomyosarcoma (PBPL) in children reported in the English language literature, to our knowledge. Herein, we report the tenth case of PBPL in a 24-hour-old newborn infant with associated nonimmunologic hydrops fetalis. We believe this to be
The first three cases of myxoid leiomyosarcoma occurring in the ovary are reported. Two cases in stage III were found in postmenopausal patients and a further case was found in stage I in a 32-year-old. All masses were large and gelatinous with cystic change, necrosis, and hemorrhage, but both uteri
