Received Date: Aug 03, 2018 / Accepted Date: Oct 20, 2018 / Published Date: Oct 23, 2018
Abstract
Leiomyosarcoma of the ankle is a rare occurrence. It typically manifests in the 4th to 6th decades of life with no definite gender predilection. Frequently, it is misdiagnosed clinically as a benign entity due to a seemingly indolent disease course. Herein, we describe an 81-year old gentleman who presented to his primary care physician with a complaint of painful right ankle lump.
