Primary Leiomyosarcoma of the Mandibular Gingiva | Chapter 1 | Advanced Concepts in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 9

Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a diseased neoplasm, which begins from smooth muscle. Primary spoken LMS is an exceptionally exceptional lesion, often guide poor prognosis. The most coarse symptom of oral LMS is bestowed as a painless bulk. We present a case of oral LMS in the anterior mandibular gingiva, accompanying an uncommon clinical image in an no prevalent anatomic spot. Moreover, this case presents troubles in the histopathologic diagnosis of the incisional biopsy, that referred to the lesion as pseudosarcomatous. The situation of choice is radical surgical resection; however, supplementary radiotherapy and chemotherapy can also have a beneficial effect.

Renal Leiomyosarcoma with Mixoid Component: Case Report and Literature Review | Chapter 11 | Advanced Concepts in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 1

 Primary leiomyosarcoma is an intensely rare entity establishing only 0.5–1% of all invasive renal tumors. It is commonly diagnosed after histological test because it does not have any distinguishing diagnostic countenance clinically and radiologically. At times, it is difficult to differentiate leiomyosarcoma from the sarcomatoid renal container carcinoma even all the while histological examination as both tumors have pivot-shaped atypical containers. Moreover, some epithelial tombstones can be present in pure smooth influence sarcomas, while some smooth muscle tombstones are positive in carcinomas. An intensely uncommon condition is leiomyosarcoma that develops in the renal stomach. A patient with an obstructive grain-related abandoned renal colic was admitted to ward with a filling defect in the renal stomach, which was originally misdiagnosed as a blood clot. After visual test of the renal pelvis and a examination of the exophytic lesion, leiomyosarcoma was determined expected the cause. Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy was performed, histological and immunohistochemical examination rooted the lesion expected a leiomyosarcoma with mixomatoid component. No adjuvant situation was performed, and the patient remains active 6 years later surgery without repetition. Herein we provide literature review, consideration of the diagnosis and situation scenario of the patient with renal stomach leiomyosarcoma with mixomatoid component.

A Rare Uterine Cancer: Epithelioid Leiomyosarcoma | Chapter 14 | New Frontiers in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 16

 Uterine epithelioid leiomyosarcoma is a form of uterine mesenchymal tumour that develops from the smooth muscle that lines the uterus's walls. The exact cause of leiomyosarcoma is unknown, however it is thought that uterine leiomyosarcoma accounts for 5 to 10% of occurrences. Leiomyosarcoma, the most common subtype of uterine sarcoma, accounts for 1-2 % of all uterine cancers. Molecular approaches have recently been used to identify a number of lesions with specific genetic abnormalities and clinicopathological characteristics. Malignancy should be suspected in menopausal women who are not taking hormonal replacement therapy and have developed a tumour. A 64-year-old woman has been experiencing postmenopausal haemorrhage for the last two months, with a palpable lump approximately 16 weeks in size. On ultrasonography, the whorled mass lesions, endometrium, and myometrium could not be distinguished. Both ovaries have been removed from the uterus. A 16-week-old uterine tumour with a dimension of 15x15 cm and a weight of 1kg, as well as an intramural fibroid, were discovered during the procedure. Necrotic and haemorrhagic areas with degenerative modifications on cut sections signify malignancy. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry were used to find epithelioid leiomyosarcoma.
