SILVA-BENITO, Fernando et al. Adrenal leiomyosarcoma and synchronous cervical cancer. Case report and literature review. Gac. mex. oncol. [online]. 2019, vol.18, suppl.1, pp.69-74.  Epub Oct 17, 2022. ISSN 2565-005X.  https://doi.org/10.24875/j.gamo.m18000143.

Primary adrenal leiomyosarcoma (LMS) and synchronous cervical carcinoma are rare. We present the case of a 72-year-old woman with this disease, treatment and findings by pathology. The LMS was found incidentally in an extension study. Complete resection of the adrenal lesion was performed, showing positive immunoreactions to smooth muscle actin and desmin. Cervical cancer was treated with radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy. She has a disease-free period of 17 months, with no recurrence. It is argued that complete surgical resection of LMS is the most important treatment.

Keywords : Adrenal leiomyosarcoma; Cervical cancer; Adrenalectomy.
