    Abstract:
    A case of hepatic metastasis from leiomyosarcoma of the rectum submitted to right hepatic lobectomy is presented. Surgery for hepatic metastasis from intestinal leiomyosarcoma is rarely possible. The patient was a 67-year-old woman who was diagnosed as leiomyosarcoma of the rectum and underwent abdominoperineal excision of the rectum in fifteen months. Hepatic metastasis was detected by US, CT and angiography. Right hepatic lobectomy was performed, and the resected hepatic lesions were histologically identified as metastasis from leiomyosarcoma of the rectum. The patient is still alive 10 months after the second operation with no lesions of the liver.
