| Core Tip |
Primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma is an extremely rare tumor, among all primary hepatic malignancies, with approximately seventy cases reported worldwide, including our case. The rare nature of the disease has precluded its underlying pathogenesis. Clinical manifestations are usually nonspecific, and tumors are generally asymptomatic until they significantly increase in size. They have a relatively poor prognosis and aggressive metastatic potential. The most preferred type of treatment is surgical excision, which sometimes is combined with adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, little is known about the current therapy's effectiveness because of the disease's rarity. More in-depth studies are needed to investigate and shed light on this uncommon clinical entity. |
