title: [Leiomyosarcoma of ileocecal mesentery--a case report].
abstract: We report a case of leiomyosarcoma whose origin was near the root of ileocecal mesentery and extended into the retroperitoneum. Preoperative imaging examination, including CT, MRI and angiography clearly displayed its origin and retroperitoneal extension. These results contributed to treatment planning.
