Clinical follow-up suggests that primary osseous leiomyosarcoma has an aggressive biologic behavior. The immunohistochemical studies are useful tools and suggest that osseous leiomyosarcoma arise from the vascular smooth muscle cells within the bone. The molecular biologic findings of a high rate of genomic instability confirm the hypothesis that this rare entity is of an aggressive nature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
