  • Title: Metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma masquerading as a primary lesion of the masseter muscle.
    Author: Nusrath MA, Kendall CH, Avery CM.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2006 May; 35(5):466-8. PubMed ID: 16278070.
    Abstract:
    Leiomyosarcomas are malignant tumours of smooth muscle origin. These tumours are very rare in the head and neck region. We report a case of metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma masquerading as a primary sarcoma of the masseter muscle. We highlight the importance of considering the possibility of an unrecognised primary abdominal or uterine tumour.
