Leiomyosarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal tumor of smooth muscle origin with variable morphology. * Chondrosarcomatous differentiation in primary uterine leiomyosarcoma is quite uncommon. * Carcinosarcoma, a malignant biphasic tumor, is...
Conclusion/Relevance: We report a case of a 68-year-old, African American woman who presented with postmenopausal bleeding …. Heterologous differentiation has rarely been described in metastatic or recurrent uterine LMS; however, a primary uterine LMS with chondrosarcomatous differentiation has not been reported previously.

CM should be considered a reliable and safe approach to prevent the need for another surgery for remnant leiomyoma. Herein, surgeons performed CM when uterine leiomyomas were large, of the...
Conclusions: CM should be considered a reliable and safe approach to prevent the need for another surgery for remnant leiomyoma. Herein, surgeons performed CM when uterine leiomyomas were large, of the subserosal type, or few. Standardized treatment guidelines for myomectomy during CSs in pregnant women with uterine fibroids should be...
Physiological tracer distribution and benign lesion incidental uptake of Al18F-NOTA-FAPI-04 on PET/CT imaging - PubMed

doi: 10.1097/MNM.0000000000001563. Online ahead of print. 1 The PET/CT Center, Department of Nuclear Medicine, Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Institute, Sichuan Cancer Center, School of Medicine, University of Electronic Science and...
Conclusion: This study provides a reference range for 18F-FAPI uptake in relevant organs and benign lesions. Benign lesion 18F-FAPI uptake may reduce 18F-FAPI PET/CT specificity.

Benign metastatic leiomyoma (BML) is a histologically benign disease with invasive biological behavior. Most patients are women of childbearing age with a history of uterine leiomyoma. The progress of the...
Conclusion/Relevance: Combined with the clinical data of this case and reviewing the relevant literature, this paper discusses the pathological characteristics, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and treatment of BML.
Rapid enlargement of pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma with fluid-containing cystic change: a case report - Surgical Case Reports

Background Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma (PBML) is a rare disease that can occur in women with a history of uterine leiomyoma. Despite its benign histological features, like a malignancy, leiomyomas...
Conclusion: Given the risk of rapid progression, we should carefully consider the surgical indications of fluid-containing PBML.
