Abstract:
[Abstract] Uterine leiomyoma is a common benign tumor in women, but distant metastasis is extremely rare in clinical practice. This article retrospectively analyzes the clinical data of 6 patients with uterine leiomyoma metastasis at different sites who were treated at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School from January 2019 to August 2023, summarizing their clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment plans, pathological features, and prognosis. Meanwhile, combined with literature review, it explores the pathogenesis and clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies of metastasizing uterine leiomyoma, aiming to improve clinical recognition of this disease and provide reference for its diagnosis and treatment.
