"Benign metastasizing leiomyoma"

Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma presenting as acute hypoxemic respiratory failure: a case report. Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma is an uncommon condition, predominantly affecting women of childbearing age with a history of uterine smooth muscle tumors and uterine leiomyoma surgery for uterine leiomyoma. The progression of PBML is often unpredictable and depends on the extent

Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma in patients aged 45 years and younger: clinical features and novelty in treatment. Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma (PBML) is the most common extrauterine spread of uterine leiomyoma, and its biological behavior is traditionally thought to be hormone dependent. Studies on older PBML patients have been previously reported, but limited literature

A Liposarcoma Arising in a Pulmonary Hamartoma, Coexisting With Benign Metastasizing Leiomyoma. Pulmonary hamartoma is a common benign tumor that rarely degenerates into malignancy. This report documents a unique case of pulmonary hamartoma with malignant transformation into well-differentiated liposarcoma, coexisting in proximity to pulmonary nodules representing benign metastasizing leiomyoma

Concurrent benign metastasizing leiomyoma in the lung and lumbar spine with elevated standardized uptake value level in positron-emission tomography computed tomography: A case report and literature review. Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is rare condition involving distant metastases secondary to benign uterine leiomyoma, and it is most commonly found in the lungs. It rarely metastasizes

Aberrant uterine leiomyomas with extrauterine manifestation: intravenous leiomyomatosis and benign metastasizing leiomyomas Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) and benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) are uncommon variants of benign uterine leiomyomas with extrauterine manifestations. Categorizing the extent of disease allows clinicians to delineate the clinical spectrum and the level

Case of pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma from synchronous uterine leiomyoma in a postmenopausal woman Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare tumor comprising histologically benign smooth muscle cells and exhibits the same histological findings as a uterine myoma although in an extra-uterine location. Most BMLs occur several years after surgery for uterine myoma in women

The Heart as a Site of Metastasis of Benign Metastasizing Leiomyoma: Case Report and Review of the Literature Uterine leiomyomas are the most common gynecological tumors in premenopausal women. While the lung is the most common extrauterine organ afflicted, benign metastasizing leiomyomas (BML) of the heart are rarities. We report an incidental finding of a cardiac mass in a 36-year-old woman

Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma: A case report Uterine leiomyoma is the most common benign gynecological tumor. Rarely, it has benign extra-uterine growth patterns, including benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML), with lungs being the most common metastatic site. We present a case of a 47-year-old female who, 3 years prior to presentation, underwent abdominal supra-cervical hysterectomy

Concurrent pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma and primary lung adenocarcinoma: a case report Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) in the lung is a very rare metastatic disease. BML accompanied with primary lung cancer is even more uncommon. In our report, a 38-year-old female who undertook routine computed tomography (CT) scan revealed the pulmonary abnormality. Chest CT imaging showed

Pelvic and pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma: A case report Seven years after she had a total abdominal hysterectomy for benign leiomyomas, a 46-year-old woman presented with a pelvic mass and multiple pulmonary nodules. She underwent resection of the mass and core needle biopsy of a pulmonary lesion. Histopathologic analysis revealed that both the pelvic and the pulmonary lesions were consistent with benign leiomyomas. Benign metastasizing leiomyoma should be considered if a woman of reproductive age and with a history of leiomyomas presents with extrauterine nodules without evidence of malignancy. The final diagnosis should be based on histopathological examination. Treatment depends on tumor size, location, receptor positivity, and disease progression.

Benign metastasizing leiomyoma presenting as multiple cystic pulmonary nodules: a case report. Benign metastatic leiomyoma (BML) is an extremely rare disease. Although uterine leiomyomas are benign histologically, they can metastasize to distant sites. While the incidence is very low, the lung is the organ most frequently affected by BML. Pulmonary BML usually presents as numerous well-defined

A rare case of benign metastasizing leiomyoma Benign metastasizing leiomyoma is a rare disorder involving distant metastases secondary to a smooth muscle tumour of the myometrium. This case report describes a 48-year-old woman with multiple pulmonary nodules noted on post-operative chest x-ray. Further investigation revealed a history of total abdominal hysterectomy for benign fibroids

Massively parallel sequencing and genome-wide copy number analysis revealed a clonal relationship in benign metastasizing leiomyoma Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare disease entity typically presenting as multiple extrauterine leiomyomas associated with a uterine leiomyoma. It has been hypothesized that the extrauterine leiomyomata represent distant metastasis of the uterine

Benign metastasizing leiomyoma and 18-FDG-PET/CT: A case report and literature review Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma (PBML) is a rare disease entity that usually occurs in females of reproductive age with a previous history of uterine myoma. It is typically characterized by multiple pulmonary tumors consisting of benign leiomyoma cells. In the present study, two cases of PBML

Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma presented as acute respiratory distress Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a very rare condition and is characterized by the presence of benign smooth muscle tumours in organs distant from the uterus, most commonly the lung. It generally affects women of reproductive age and prognostic is usually excellent. However, the course of the disease

Malignant Transformation of Pulmonary Benign Metastasizing Leiomyoma Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma (PBML) is defined as metastasis of a leiomyoma to lung tissue. It was first reported in 1937. P BML is known as a benign disease, but can undergo malignant transformation. Only 1 case of the malignant transformation of PBML to leiomyosarcoma has been reported previously. In this report

Benign Metastasizing Leiomyoma. Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare and poorly characterized disease affecting primarily premenopausal women. Asymptomatic patients are often diagnosed incidentally by radiographs or other lung-imaging procedures performed for other indications, and the diagnosis is eventually confirmed by biopsy. Patients with BML are usually treated pharmacologically

Treatment decision based on the biological behavior of pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare disease in women undergoing surgery for uterine leiomyoma. About 100 cases have been reported in the literature, none of which describe the biological behavior of lesions. The authors present the case of a 36-year-old, asymptomatic woman who had undergone

Benign metastasizing leiomyoma in triple location: lungs, parametria and appendix Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) usually are situated in one organ, most often in lungs. BML patients typically have a history of uterine leiomyoma treated with hysterectomy, myomectomy or subtotal hysterectomy. The aim of the study was to present the case of a 53-year-old woman with triple location in the lungs

Benign metastasizing leiomyomas in the lungs: a case study Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare disease that occurs in middle-aged women with a history of uterine myomas. The most common location of BML is the lungs. We report the case of a 44-year-old obese woman (BMI 45.5) who underwent surgery to remove uterine leiomyomata and then continued to take a drug containing the hormone estradiol for a period of 15 years. Computed tomography chest examinations revealed multiple size nodules of varying size in both lungs. Videothoracoscopy and right thoracotomy was performed, and a few nodules were enucleated from each lobe of the right lung. Postoperative histopathological examination revealed benign metastasizing leiomyoma staining positive for estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER
