Renal leiomyosarcoma

Abstract

Renal leiomyosarcomas are very rare and only account for 1-3% of primary renal malignancies. The prognosis for a renal sarcoma is poor, and differentiation from sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma and a renal sarcoma is particularly necessary. The patient's clinical presentation and imaging findings are not helpful for accurate preoperative diagnosis. The primary treatment is radical nephrectomy with or without adjuvant radiotherapy chemotherapy. The prognosis is poor. We report a case of primary renal leiomyosarcoma of which pathological diagnosis was confirmed immunohistochemically.
