    (GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2019-01-01) Meseci, Elif; Naki, Mehmet Murat
    Objective: To determine the clinical and pathologic characteristics, prognostic factors, surgical practice, adjuvant therapies, and survival outcomes of patients with uterine sarcoma diagnosed and treated in our institution. Material and Methods: Patients diagnosed and treated for uterine sarcomas at our institution from 2009 to 2017 were retrospectively evaluated. All histologic slides from the specimens underwent a thorough pathologic review by a gynecologic pathologist. The following variables were assessed: age, family history of cancer, smoking status, age of menarche, parity, age at first delivery, related symptoms, clinical staging, histologic type, treatment received, disease-free period, and the time and site of recurrence, as well as treatment of the latter and overall survival. Results: Ten patients were diagnosed as having leiomyosarcoma, a further 10 patients had malignant mixed mullerian tumors, and five had endometrial stromal sarcoma

    Management of a primary cardiac leiomyosarcoma in a young woman
    (BAYCINAR MEDICAL PUBL-BAYCINAR TIBBI YAYINCILIK, 2021-01-01) Onalan, Mehmet Akif; Demirkaya, Ahmet; Behzatoglu, Kemal; Erek, Ersin
    Cardiac leiomyosarcoma is an extremely rare tumor with a poor prognosis. An 18-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with a left atrial leiomyosarcoma extending to the right lower pulmonary veins. We performed complete tumor excision by the right anterolateral mini-thoracotomy approach using minimally invasive techniques. After pathological confirmation of the tumor, right lower lobectomy was performed with the same incision one week later to prevent recurrence. Although no tumor remnant was found in the lobectomy specimen, adjuvant chemotherapy was started. No recurrence was detected during the 12-month follow-up. In conclusion, the right submammarian minithoracotomy approach has the advantages of its less invasive nature and suitability for complete tumor resection with lobectomy.
