title: [MRI appearance of a primary leiomyosarcoma of bone with epiphyseal involvement].
abstract: Primary leiomyosarcoma of bone is a rarely reported tumor of elderly subjects. It usually shows an aggressive osteolytic pattern on plain radiographs and involves predominantly the metaphyses of long bones. We report a case of primary leiomyosarcoma of bone, which is atypical by its epiphyseal location, a non-aggressive pattern on plain radiographs and its MR imaging features.
