Description

Retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma is often too large to be completely removed. We report a 67-year-old woman successfully treated with neoadjuvant CYVADIC (cyclosphosphamide, vincristine, adriamycin and dacarbazine). The tumor was removed with the right kidney and ureter and a part of the vena cava after 2 courses of CYVADIC. The tumor recurred at the duodenum 7 years later and was completely removed following neoadjuvant CYVADIC. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy could be helpful for the complete resection of advanced leiomyosarcoma.
