Leiomyosarcoma of the chest wall mimicking schwannoma resected by a video-assisted thoracoscopic approach : a case report
Published by Oxford University Press and JSCR Publishing Ltd. © The Author(s) 2022..
Chest wall sarcomas account for <20% of all soft tissue sarcomas of which leiomyosarcomas represent only 1-4%. We report a case of thoracic leiomyosarcoma that resembled schwannoma in preoperative image studies. A 79-year-old man presented to our hospital with a chest wall tumor that increased in size over 3 months. Computed tomography of the chest revealed a 3-cm mass arising from the chest wall. Thoracic magnetic resonance imaging showed a solid tumor that was hypo-intense on T1-weighted imaging and iso-intense on T2-weighted imaging. Chest wall resection was performed using a video-assisted thoracoscopic approach after a frozen section examination revealed sarcoma. The histological diagnosis was leiomyosarcoma. Liver and multiple lung metastases were detected 5 years after surgery. Malignant tumors should be considered in any patient with chest wall tumors. The thoracoscopic approach could be an optimal treatment for chest wall tumor.
