文摘Leiomyosarcoma most frequently arises in the vretropefitoneum, the intra-abdominal space, and the subcutaneous tissue of the extremities. Primary leiomyosarcoma of bone is a rare malignant neoplasm, most commonly involving bones around the knee.1 Although whether leiomyosarcoma can be considered a true primary bone tumor remains questionable, refinements in immunohistochemical techniques are causing this recognition to slowly gain favor. We report a case of a huge primary leiomyosarcoma of bone in the right pelvis.
