Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
Invasive uterine leiomyosarcoma is a very rare tumour mainly affecting peri-menopausal women. It presents with profuse vaginal bleeding and pelvic mass. These are highly aggressive and often show recurrence. Such tumours are rarely reported in young age group. We here present a case of invasive uterine leiomyosarcoma in a 22 year old female. She presented with a pelvic mass without bleeding manifestations. Despite early surgery and resuscitative measures, she succumbed to the disease. The clinical profile of the disease and relevant treatment options are also discussed.
