Incidentally identified intra-abdominal leiomyosarcoma in a 55-year-old woman.
(a–c) Axial T1-weighted (a), T2-weighted
(b), and gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted fat-suppressed
(c) MR images show a large relatively homogeneous,
non–fat-containing solid intra-abdominal mass that is isointense to
skeletal muscle on T1-weighted images (arrows on a),
heterogeneously T2 hyperintense (arrows on b), and heterogeneously
enhanced (arrows on c). (d) Photomicrograph of
leiomyosarcoma shows elongated atypical spindle cells with blunt-ended nuclei
with mitotic activity. (H-E stain; original magnification, ×80.)
