Breast lump as the initial presentation of metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma: a case report and comprehensive literature review
Croat Med J. 2024 Feb 29;65(1):51-58. doi: 10.3325/cmj.2024.65.51.ABSTRACTUterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS) is a rare but aggressive cancer with a high metastatic potential and an unfavorable prognosis. A 54-year-old woman with a history of uterine fibroids clinically presented with a painless, palpable left breast mass measuring 20 mm. A core biopsy of the breast mass demonstrated a cellular spindle cell neoplasm (a potentially malignant smooth muscle neoplasm; B4). A wide local breast-mass excision was performed, revealing grade-2 leiomyosarcoma. A re-review of the uterine fibroids revealed that the largest one (200 × 130 m...
