Leiomyosarcoma of the breast - a case report

Memenin primer leiomyosarkomları oldukça nadirdir. Literatürde bugüne kadar yaklaşık otuz hasta rapor edilmiştir. Bu olgu sunumunda, daha önce sol memesinde mikst invaziv duktal karsinom ve lobüler karsinom teşhisi olan, sağ memesinde büyüme gösteren kitle ile başvuran ve primer leiomyosarkom tanısı alan 66 yaşındaki kadın hasta bildirilmektedir. Memenin primer leiomyosarkomları çok nadir tümörler olmasına rağmen, meme kanseri öyküsü olan hastalarda ortaya çıkan iğsi hücreli meme tümörlerinin metaplastik karsinomu da içeren ayırıcı tanısında akılda tutulmalıdır.

Memenin leiomyosarkomu - bir olgu sunumu

Primary leiomyosarcomas of the breast are extremely rare tumors. There were approximately thirty patients reported in the literature up to date. Herein, we report a 66-years old female patient who presented with an enlarging mass in her right breast which was diagnosed as primary leiomyosarcoma following previous mixed invasive ductal carcinoma and invasive lobular carcinoma in her left breast. Although primary leiomyosarcomas of the breast are very rare tumors, they should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of spindle cell breast tumors including metaplastic carcinoma in patients with prior breast cancer.
