| Abstrakt: | Gastric leiomyosarcoma is a rare entity with only a handful of cases reported in the literature. Although this entity has been known to metastasize, there are currently no reported cases of metastatic leiomyosarcoma to the bilateral adrenal glands. We report a case of a 58-year-old woman with primary gastric leiomyosarcoma with bilateral metastasis to the adrenal gland. This case illustrates a presentation of gastric leiomyosarcoma with bilateral adrenal involvement, the challenges in its diagnosis, treatment, as well as a rare complication of primary adrenal insufficiency and adrenal crisis.
