ABSTRACT
Leiomyosarcoma with heterologous differentiation is relatively rare. To date, only 19 cases have been reported in the English literature. Heterologous components frequently show histological pleomorphism, while those exhibiting well-differentiated morphology are seldom reported. Here, we report a 34-year-old female diagnosed with leiomyosarcoma and developed abdominal wall recurrence 8 years after primary surgery. The recurrent tumor mainly comprised well-differentiated chondrosarcoma except a single focus of leiomyosarcoma. Due to the rarity and prolonged onset of such a transition, our case provides insight into the understanding of this phenomenon.
