Abstract
Uterine cervix sarcomas are rare tumours forming less than 1% of all cervical malignancies. Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) of cervix is extremely uncommon. According to literature, only 22 cases have been reported of which only two cases have been reported in the Indian literature. The rarity of LMS is contributed to paucity of available data regarding the signs and symptoms, mode of management and prognosis of the patients. We report a rare case of leiomyosarcoma of uterine cervix in a 34 year premenopausal Indian female presenting with bulky cervical mass and bleeding per vaginam. Final diagnosis was made on the basis of histopathological and immunohistochemical findings.
