The symptoms, which vary based on the tumor's location, size, and number, include pain, constipation, urinary disturbances, and abnormal menstrual bleeding. Certain types of uterine leiomyomas, such as pedunculated subserosal myomas or large degenerating cystic myomas, may closely mimic ovarian tumors, leading to significant diagnostic and management challenges.

Article Synopsis
  • - Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDL) is a rare and aggressive subtype typically found in the retroperitoneum, with challenging diagnostics, especially when it occurs in the mesentery as documented in very few cases.
  • - A 76-year-old woman was discovered to have a large mesenteric mass incidentally while being treated for pneumonia, leading to surgery where a tumor adherent to the intestine was removed and identified as intermediate-grade DDL.
