Abstrakt: Objective: We report a new case of bladder leiomyosarcoma in a young female patient. We review its features and different treatment options.
Methods: The patient underwent neoadyuvant chemotherapy and surgical excision.
Results: A partial response was achieved with neoadyuvant chemotherapy and remains still alive 60 moths after radical cystectomy
Conclusion: Despite the poor prognosis of this disease, multimodal treatment may improve results. Neoadyuvant chemotherapy and subsequent radical excision could be a good combination therapy for these aggressive tumors.
