A 60's woman had undergone abdominal total hysterectomy due to uterine leiomyoma 17 years previously. She underwent resection of multiple intra-abdominal tumors 9 years previously, and was diagnosed with disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis. Because of several recurrences, she was referred to our hospital and treated with GnRH agonist therapy. However, the tumors enlarged gradually and she underwent further resection for multiple intra-abdominal tumors. After surgery, we performed several operations. This is an extremely rare disease and we present this case with a discussion of the literature.
