  • Title: A giant unhomogenous leiomyoma simulating ovarian cancer. A case report.
    Author: Mäenpää J, Nurmi M, Taina E, Aho A.
    Journal: Ann Chir Gynaecol Suppl; 1987; 202():100-2. PubMed ID: 3310821.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of a giant unhomogenous uterine leiomyoma that simulated ovarian cancer both clinically, roentgenologically (computerized tomography) and ultrasonically. As an incidental finding there was also a carcinoma in situ of the endometrium. The difficulties in the differential diagnosis of an abdomino-pelvic mass are discussed, and the significance of laparotomy also as a diagnostic method is emphasized.
