A case of leiomyosarcoma of the rectum associated with rectal amebiasis is presented. This is the first case to be reported. Initially, amebiasis obscured the histologic diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma, but incomplete regression following a course of treatment with metronidazole aroused the suspicion of malignancy, which was confirmed on repeat biopsy. A brief review of the features of leiomyosarcoma was also undertaken.
本文报告一例直肠平滑肌肉瘤合并直肠阿米巴病的病例。这是首例报告病例。起初,阿米巴病掩盖了平滑肌肉瘤的组织学诊断,但甲硝唑治疗疗程后未完全消退引发了恶性肿瘤的怀疑,再次活检得以证实。本文还对平滑肌肉瘤的特征进行了简要综述。
