A Case of Primary Leiomyosarcoma of the Liver
Abstract
- Primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma of the liver is a rare tumor, with fewer than 70 previously reported cases. There was only one case reported in Korea. We present the case of a 54-year-old man who presented with a mass in the right hepatic lobe on CT scan. Percutaneous biopsy was consistent with leiomyosarcoma. The patient was treated successfully by right lobectomy, and has been disease free for 19 months. We report the case of primary leiomyosarcoma of the liver with review of relevant literatures.
