title: Primary liver leiomyosarcoma: CT appearance.
abstract: Primary hepatic leiomyosarcomas are exceedingly rare tumors. To the best of our knowledge, only 17 cases have been reported in literature. We report the computed tomographic findings of two cases of primary location in the liver. We also discuss the differential diagnosis of such lesions.
