Introduction:
Gastric leiomyosarcomas are extremely rare tumors, comprising 0.1-3% of all malignant gastric lesions; their diagnosis and management are still a gray area in medicine.
Objective:
To describe a gastric leiomyosarcoma case report with pulmonary and mesenteric metastases.
Methods:
A 70-year-old male with dyspepsia worsening within 3 months.
Results:
Endoscopy reports a polypoid lesion whose immunohistochemical result concludes a gastric leiomyosarcoma.
Conclusions:
Gastric leiomyosarcoma continues to be a rare entity. More case reports are necessary to improve its diagnosis and management.
Palabras llave : Gastric leiomyosarcoma; Gastric cancer; Immunohistochemistry; GIST.
