Causes:
Exact cause of leiomyosarcoma is not clearly evident.However following points are considered regarding causes[1]:
- Although not proven but some reasearchers believes that it could be a malignant transformation of the fibroid( leiomyoma).
- It may arise denovo or can be due to the genomic instability. However molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis driven by genomic and genetic aberration is yet to be elucidated.
- Over expression of the protooncogene C-myc is seen in 50% of the cases.
- Retinobalstoma gene discrepancies are also seen in 90% of cases.
- P16 chromosomal deletion causes loss of tumor suppression and so is involved in the development of leiomyosarcoma.
- P53 gene mutation is also frequently seen in uterine leiomyosarcoma.
