We present an autopsy case of a primary ovarian leiomyosarcoma in a 73\u2010year\u2010old woman. She had noticed an abdominal mass after difficulty in defecating for several months. The excision of tumor with bilateral salpingo\u2010oophorectomy and hysterectomy was carried out. A diagnosis of pure leiomyosarcoma of the left ovary was made on pathological examination with immunohistochemistry. Adjuvant radio\u2013chemotherapy was not given. At 18 months\u2019 follow up, abdomino\u2010pelvic sonography revealed an abdominal tumor and hepatic metastasis. The patient died 3.5 years after the initial surgery. The post\u2010mortem examination revealed a peritoneal recurrent tumor and extensive distant metastases of the liver, lungs, pancreas, gastric mucosa, muscle and skin. The prognosis of the ovarian LMS is poor from the pertinent literature. Several prognostic indicators on histology including mitotic activity, proliferative activity and p53 status of the tumor are discussed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1440-1827.2000.01020.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,3,12]],"date-time":"2003-03-12T17:14:32Z","timestamp":1047489272000},"page":"162-165","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Ovarian leiomyosarcoma: An autopsy case report"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"Michiyo","family":"Nasu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Inoue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mitsuaki","family":"Matsui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shigeki","family":"Minoura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Osamu","family":"Matsubara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2001,12,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","first-page":"920","article-title":"Primary ovarian sarcoma.","volume":"37","author":"Azoury RG","year":"1971","journal-title":"Obstet.
