Perivascular Leiomyomatosis: A Unique Case Report:
2018
There are 3 histologically benign smooth muscle neoplasms that have unusual growth patterns. These include intravascular leiomyomatosis, benign metastasizing leiomyoma, and leiomyomatosis peritonealis desseminata. We report a unique case of perivascular leiomyomatosis. The tumor showed multiple nodules of benign smooth muscle with some of the nodules closely associated with the periphery of the medial muscle layer of venous channels. All the neoplastic nodules were located on the outer surface of venous channels, thus precluding a diagnosis of intravascular leiomyomatosis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first documentation of such an entity.
