Abstract

A 79-year-old man undergoing leiomyosarcoma resection of the antebrachium 6 years earlier and referred for a liver tumor found in computed tomography (CT) was diagnosed with liver tumors with multiple metastases from antebrachial leiomyosarcoma by biopsy, necessitating extended S4 segmentectomy and S8 partial hepatic resection of liver. He remains alive for 4 year with no recurrence. Superficial leiomyosarcoma is very rare, and its subcutaneous form involves a high rate of recurrence and metastasis. We report this case due to the patient's long survival after complete metastatic lesion resection.
