Indolent gastric epithelioid leiomyosarcoma in Carney's Triad.
We report a patient with gastric epithelioid leiomyosarcoma and multiple pulmonary chondromata who remains asymptomatic 38 years after initial resection of the gastric tumour and 4 years after representation with recurrent tumour and multiple liver metastases. This represents an incomplete form of Carney's Triad, and illustrates the unusually indolent natural history of the gastric tumour in this condition. The radiological appearances are described.
