Leiomyosarcoma is an infrequent soft-tissue tumor that generally occurs in the myometrium and gastrointestinal tract. Primary tumors of the veins are unusual and generally occur in the inferior vena cava and only exceptionally in peripheral veins, such as the jugular or its branches. We report a case of leiomyosarcoma located in the left inferior turbinate. The 87 year-old male patient presented nasal obstruction and recurrent nosebleed. He had pulmonary and mediastinal metastases at the time of diagnosis.
平滑肌肉瘤是一种罕见的软组织肿瘤，通常发生于子宫肌层和胃肠道。静脉原发性肿瘤较为罕见，一般发生在下腔静脉，仅极少数发生于外周静脉，如颈静脉或其分支。我们报告一例位于左侧下鼻甲的平滑肌肉瘤病例。这位87岁男性患者表现为鼻塞和反复鼻出血。诊断时已有肺和纵隔转移。
