Follow-up in patients with disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis: a report of an unusual, high-risk case
Summary
Leiomyomatosis peritonei disseminata is a condition seen uncommonly in states of oestrogen hypersecretion in women of childbearing age. There are no clear guidelines for the primary management and follow-up of these patients. Here, a rare case in a postmenopausal woman with a normal hormonal state who may be considered higher risk is presented, with a review suggesting a management pathway in these patients.
