Abstract:
Four patients with leiomyosarcoma of the small intestine who presented with a pelvic mass are reviewed. The tumors had clinical and radiographic features resembling ovarian neoplasms. These patients develop sizable tumors and, yet, have relatively few symptoms which would necessarily direct the physician to the intestine as the site of origin. The clinicopathologic features and management of these tumors are reviewed.
