Vaginal metastases, though more frequent than primary vaginal tumors, are rare. Except for isolated reports of metastatic disease arising from extragenital organs, the vagina is typically a site for metastatic disease from genitourinary tract sites, especially cervix, endometrium, and kidney. We present herein a case of a 68-year-old woman presenting with a vaginal metastasis as the first manifestation of a uterine leiomyosarcoma. The magnetic resonance imaging features are described and correlated with the pathological findings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of vaginal metastasis from uterine leiomyosarcoma described in the literature.
阴道转移瘤虽然比原发性阴道肿瘤更常见，但仍很罕见。除了有来自生殖器外器官的转移性疾病的个别报道外，阴道通常是泌尿生殖道部位转移性疾病的发生部位，尤其是子宫颈、子宫内膜和肾脏。我们在此报告一例68岁女性，以阴道转移瘤作为子宫平滑肌肉瘤的首发表现。描述了磁共振成像特征并与病理结果进行了对比。据我们所知，这是文献中描述的首例子宫平滑肌肉瘤阴道转移病例。
