title: Primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma.
abstract: Hepatomegaly was noted in a 63-year-old man who presented with an exacerbation of chronic pulmonary disease. A diagnosis of hepatic leiomyosarcoma was made by fine needle aspiration biopsy. Intensive investigations failed to reveal a primary source. The patient was treated conservatively.
