Abstract
Leiomyosarcoma account for 5-10% of soft tissue sarcomas1. They are principally tumors of adult life and are more common in women than in men. Primary oral leiomyosarcoma is a rare entity with unusual bone location because of paucity of smooth muscle in that site2. We report a histologically proven case of leiomyosarcoma of maxilla with bilateral renal metastasis, which were visualized in CT and diagnosed by CT guided fine needle aspiration cytology (FNA).
