Abstract
-
Primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma is a very rare malignant tumor of the liver and rather slowly progressing disease. When the tumor is solitary or even multiple but located in one lobe, the treatment of choice is an operation. We report a case of huge leiomyosarcoma in a 58-year old female patient treated by surgical resection.
