This article reports a rare case of bladder leiomyosarcoma effectively managed with primary surgical intervention without chemoradiation.
While urothelial carcinoma is the most common histologic type of bladder cancer in the United States, leiomyosarcoma is a rare and aggressive variant. The rarity of bladder leiomyosarcoma results in uncertainty regarding the optimal treatment pathway. We report on a patient with a giant non-metastatic bladder leiomyosarcoma effectively managed with primary surgical intervention without chemoradiation.
