Abstract

Uterine epithelioid leiomyosarcoma is a rare neoplasm. There have been no previous reports describing computed tomography (CT) findings for this tumor. A 31-year-old woman presented with a heterogeneous enhancing mass, with internal septa, in the uterus, which was shown on CT images. Histological diagnosis was compatible with epithelioid leiomyosarcoma.
