Lungs, bones, and brain are common sites of metastases of uterine leiomyosarcoma. Metastases of uterine leiomyosarcoma to the small bowel are extremely rare, and only four case reports have been published to date.<jats:italic>Case presentation.<\/jats:italic>A 55-year-old Saudi woman diagnosed with a case of uterine leiomyosarcoma treated with total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) and bilateral salpingooophorectomy (BSO) presented in emergency room after sixteen months with acute abdomen. Subsequent work-up showed a jejunal mass for which resection and end-to-end anastomosis were performed. Biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of small bowel metastasis from uterine leiomyosarcoma. Further staging work-up showed wide spread metastasis in lungs and brain. After palliative cranial irradiation, systemic chemotherapy based on single agent doxorubicin was started.<jats:italic>Conclusion.<\/jats:italic>Metastatic leiomyosarcoma of small bowel from uterine leiomyosarcoma is a rare entity and is sign of advanced disease. It should be differentiated from primary leiomyosarcoma of small bowel as both are treated with different systemic chemotherapeutic agents.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/603097","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,4]],"date-time":"2014-03-04T16:08:07Z","timestamp":1393949287000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Obstructive Small Bowel Metastasis from Uterine Leiomyosarcoma: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2014","author":[{"given":"Mutahir A.","family":"Tunio","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiation Oncology, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mushabbab","family":"AlAsiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiation Oncology, Comprehensive Cancer Center, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh 59046, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rasha M.","family":"Saleh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Oncology, Comprehensive Cancer Center, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh 59046, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shomaila Amir","family":"Akbar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiation Oncology, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh 59046, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nagoud M.","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Anatomic Pathology, King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh 11525, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed Abdalazez","family":"Senosy Hassan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Oncology, Minia Oncology Center, Minia, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ygyno.2009.09.023"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1006\/gyno.1993.1123"},{"issue":"5","key":"3","first-page":"309","volume":"12","year":"2010","journal-title":"Israel Medical Association Journal"},{"issue":"7","key":"4","first-page":"346","volume":"133","year":"1996","journal-title":"Journal de Chirurgie"},{"issue":"6","key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"855","DOI":"10.1002\/jmri.1880060603","volume":"6","year":"1996","journal-title":"Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4076\/1757-1626-2-9288"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.oraloncology.2010.01.013"},{"issue":"3","key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"675","DOI":"10.3892\/etm.2013.1220","volume":"6","year":"2013","journal-title":"Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine"},{"issue":"2","key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"175","DOI":"10.1097\/00000658-197408000-00008","volume":"180","year":"1974","journal-title":"Annals of Surgery"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3747\/co.20.1357"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/criog\/2014\/603097.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/criog\/2014\/603097.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/criog\/2014\/603097.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,8]],"date-time":"2019-08-08T00:42:05Z","timestamp":1565224925000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/criog\/2014\/603097\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014]]},"references-count":10,"alternative-id":["603097","603097"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2014\/603097","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6684","2090-6692"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2090-6684","type":"print"},{"value":"2090-6692","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014]]}}}
