Leiomyosarcoma is one of the rarest types of gynecological cancer. It is a relatively rare condition that affects young women. The most frequent symptom of this disease is vaginal bleeding. The primary treatment for localized disease is still surgical intervention. It is widely recognized that leiomyosarcoma has a poor prognosis, with reduced survival rates and a high likelihood of early recurrence. This report presents a case of uterine leiomyosarcoma in a 22-year-old female patient. Following a total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, the diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma was confirmed through a histopathological examination of the surgical specimen.
