MACEDO, Carlos et al. Uterine leiomyosarcoma - right on time. []. , 17, 1, pp.72-75.   31--2023. ISSN 1646-5830.

Uterine leiomyosarcomas, although rare, are the most frequent histological type of uterine sarcomas, and have a poor prognosis even when diagnosed in early stages. More often they present with abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic mass and/or pelvic pain, making the differential diagnosis with uterine leiomyomas. Due to its rarity and aggressiveness, there is no consensus regarding the treatment algorithm. We describe the case of a woman who presented a spontaneous rupture of leiomyosarcoma, a rare manifestation with few cases described in the literature.
