Leiomyosarcomas of the extremities
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1989AbstractLeiomyosarcomas are uncommon malignant neoplasms that rarely arise in the extremities. We report on the clinical characteristics of 17 cases seen at the Memorial Sloan‐Kettering Cancer Center over a 32 year period. Most neoplasms occurred in the lower extremities, and most of the tumors recurred after surgery alone, with several late ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the pancreas
Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histopathology, 1993We report a case of leiomyosarcoma of the pancreas. A spindle cell pattern at light microscopy, immunocytochemical reactivity with desmin, alpha-1-antitrypsin, vimentin and actin and ultrastructural features of smooth muscle differentiation help to establish the diagnosis.

A 32-year-old woman underwent a conservative total excision of a leiomyosarcoma of the sigmoid mesocolon. During the subsequent six years she developed additional malignant and benign smooth muscle neoplasms in the soft tissues and uterus which were treated only by nonmutilating surgical excisions with an excellent result.

Cutaneous leiomyosarcoma is a rare soft-tissue sarcoma with negligible metastatic potential, but local recurrence rates after surgical excision have ranged from 14 percent to 42 percent. Unlike other sarcomas, guidelines for the optimal surgical excision margin of cutaneous leiomyosarcoma are not clearly defined in the existing literature.

A cutaneous leiomyosarcoma arose in the upper lip skin of a 22-year-old patient. This unusual tumor was diagnosed clinically as a basal cell carcinoma although histological studies confirmed a leiomyosarcoma. The tumor was excised using Mohs technique and the wound reconstructed with a nasolabial flap and full-thickness skin graft.

Abstract A presentation of our experience with leiomyosarcoma of the uterus is made. Coupled with a review of the literature on this subject, we have attempted to clarify such important aspects of the problem as diagnosis and proper understanding of the ecology of such growths and to promote a more clear understanding of therapeutic procedures.

Review of 36 cases of colonic leiomyosarcoma in the literature and our case demonstrate that most patients complain of an abdominal mass and a change in bowel habits of short duration. No physical finding has prognostic value. The mitotic activity of the tumor is the best index of survival time.

In adults, rectal leiomyosarcoma is uncommon, and anal leiomyosarcoma is even more rare. We report one patient with anal leiomyosarcoma and one patient with a biphasic clinical history, with three occurrences of perineal leiomyosarcomas after surgically resected rectal leiomyoma. We discuss the characteristics of these rare entities based upon a review

Leiomyosarcoma of the skin is a rare tumor that cannot be diagnosed clinically because its gross appearance is nonspecific. The primary skin tumor usually appears as a solitary nodule. It may arise de novo in the dermis or in the subcutaneous tissue, or as a metastatic lesion from an internal neoplasm.
