Nazal kavitenin nadir bir primer tümörü olarak leiyomiyosarkom

Düz kas hücrelerinden kaynaklanan, genelde endometrium ve gastrointestinal traktta saptanan leiyomiyosarkom, nadir görülen yumuşak doku tümörlerindendir. Burun ve paranazal kavitenin en sık görülen malignite tipi olan karsinomlara nazaran sarkomların insidansı bir hayli düşüktür ve bu bölgenin sarkomları arasında leiyomiyosarkoma az rastlanmaktadır. Bu tümörlerde genelde tercih edilen tedavi cerrahi rezeksiyondur. Bu yazıda nadir bir yerleşim yeri olarak alt konka posteriorundan kaynaklanmış ve endoskopik transnazal cerrahi rezeksiyon ile tedavi edilmiş bir nazal kavite leiyomiyosarkomu olgusu, literatür bilgileri eşliğinde sunulmaktır.

Leiomyosarcoma as a rare primary tumor of nasal cavity

Leimyosarcoma is a rare soft tissue tumor originating from smooth muscle cells and it is usually diagnosed in the endometrium and gastrointestinal tract. Compared with carcinomas which are the most common malignancies of the nose and the paranasal cavity, the incidence of sarcomas is quite low and leiomyosarcomas are rarely found among these sarcomas. Surgical excision is the usually preferred treatment choice for these tumors. In this paper, a case with nasal cavity leimyosarcoma originating from a rare location as the posterior part of lower concha and treated with endoscopic transnasal surgical excision is presented with the relevant literature.
