Abstract:
A case of a 36-year-old woman with a past history of uterine leiomyosarcoma and an intracerebral metastasis is reported. The patient presented with a 24-hour history of severe headache with coma, and the CT findings were consistent with a metastatic lesion. Pathological examination of the operative specimen showed features of a leiomyosarcoma. Uterine leiomyosarcoma is an uncommon tumor and metastasis to the brain is rare.
