Deep sequencing reveals the molecular pathology characteristics between primary uterine leiomyoma and pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma

摘要

Pulmonary benign metastasizing leiomyoma (PBML), a rare condition of smooth muscle tumor, originates from women with a history of uterine leiomyoma (LM). Numerous genetic studies of uterine LM have been reported; however, there are few cytogenetic and molecular descriptions of PBML. Therefore, molecular subtyping is necessary to understand the pathogenesis of metastasizing sites.
