Uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULC) is an uncommon neoplasm characterized by poor prognosis, it can predispose to distant metastasis, causing various symptomatic presentations. We present a unique case of a large heterogeneous mass in the lung cavity arising from a ULC, with complete absence of pulmonary symptoms and with concurrent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. A high degree of clinical suspicion is required for ULC with accompanying metastasis.
子宫平滑肌肉瘤(ULC)是一种罕见的肿瘤,其特点是预后较差,易发生远处转移,导致各种症状表现。我们报告了一例独特的病例,一名子宫平滑肌肉瘤患者肺部出现巨大异质性肿块,完全没有肺部症状,且同时感染了2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)。对于伴有转移的子宫平滑肌肉瘤,需要高度的临床怀疑。
