The most common metastatic sites are the lung, intraperitoneal, pelvic and paraaortic lymph nodes, and liver. Brain and skull metastases are very rare.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 57-year-old woman underwent a hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for a grade T2N0M0 uterine leiomyosarcoma. There was no evidence of other lesions. Three months later a total-body PET scan demonstrated the presence of metastases in both lungs, and the patient was started on chemotherapy. One year later a cranial MRI demonstrated a brain metastasis to the temporal lobe. Emergency complete resection of the recurrence was performed, followed by whole-brain radiation and adjuvant chemotherapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Given the limited treatment options, the gold standard for uterine leiomyosarcoma brain metastasis is total surgical removal.
