    Bladder leiomyosarcoma, a rare cancer, was treated with segmental cystectomy in two patients. Both patients experienced long-term remission, suggesting surgery can be effective for this uncommon bladder tumor.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Leiomyosarcoma is a rare mesenchymal tumor that can arise in the bladder.
    • Accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial for managing bladder leiomyosarcoma.
    • The rarity of this condition necessitates case reports to inform clinical practice.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of bladder leiomyosarcoma were diagnosed via histological examination.
    • Both patients underwent total segmental cystectomy due to the tumor's slow but progressive nature.
    • The surgical approach considered tumor grade, stage, and endoscopic findings.

    Findings:

    • Follow-up periods of 11 and 6 years showed no evidence of tumor recurrence or metastasis in either patient.
    • Segmental cystectomy proved to be an effective treatment modality in these cases.

  • The conservative surgical approach yielded successful long-term outcomes.

    • Implications:

    • Segmental cystectomy can be a viable option for treating bladder leiomyosarcoma.
    • Treatment decisions should be individualized based on tumor characteristics (grade, stage) and endoscopic evaluation.
    • Further research and case studies are needed to establish optimal management strategies for bladder leiomyosarcoma.
