| dc.description.abstract | Abstract Introduction: Sarcomas of the kidney are rare.Among primary sarcomas, leiomyosarcoma is the most frequent. A case of primary renal leiomyosarcoma is presented. Case report: This report concerns a 48-year-old woman, who presented with slowly increasing right flank mass and dull aching pain. A well-defined, gray, firm mass measuring 12.5 x 10.5 cm was histologically composed of interlacing bundles of spindle cells with cellular atypia and nuclear hyperchromasia. Mitotic figures constituted 10-12/ 10 HPF. Tumor cells showed positivity for desmin. The differentiation from sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma is discussed. Conclusion: The case is reported for its rarity and this is the first reported case of renal leiomyosarcoma in Nepal. | |
