Abstract excerpt
Inflammatory leiomyosarcoma (ILMS) is a very rare soft tissue tumor that usually follows an indolent clinical course, but long-term follow-up studies are lacking. Recent publications primarily focused on its genetic profile characterized by a near haploid genome. One study also showed these tumors to have upregulation of genes known to be crucial for skeletal muscle differentiation. Nevertheless,...
