Abstract
We present the case of a 23-year-old female with multiple diffuse and nodular
masses of different sizes involving predominantly the posterior wall of the uterus,
omentum, and peritoneum which were histopathologically confirmed to be dis seminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis. Meticulous investigation and accurate di agnosis are of utmost importance for the establishment of the correct diagnosis.
Additionally, proper management of the patient while considering choice of the
patients including close follow-up of the patients is mandatory for the reason of
ensuring early detection of recurrence.
