Özet
Leiomyosarkom retroperitoneal bölgede nadir görülen tümörlerden olup kendisini genellikle karın ağrısı gibi nonspesifik bulgularla belli eder. Bizim olgumuzda; retroperitoneal leiomyosarkom, 44 yaşındaki erkek hastada bilateral alt ekstremite ödemi ve derin ven trombozu gibi retroperitonal tümörlere nadiren eşlik eden bulgularla birlikteydi. Olgumuzda da olduğu gibi; bilateral alt ekstremitede ödemi olan ve derin ven trombozu nedeniyle takip edilen hastalarda retroperitoneal tümörler ayırıcı tanıda düşünülmelidir.
