Abstract: | |
Leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) is an extremely rare smooth muscle benign tumor in women’s reproductive age. It is characterized by the dissemination of multiple small nodules on the peritoneal surface, which are chiefly comprised of smooth muscle. To date, there are only around 100 cases previously reported in the literature. In the present study, we described the case of a patient who developed leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata five years after a laparoscopic myomectomy, consisting of multiple nodules located on the surface of the sigmoid colon and ileum mesenterium, parietal peritoneum of trocar puncture hole, ovarian, bladder and Douglas pouch. |
