Abstract

Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare disease from a group of tumors with the indefinite grading potential. The paper describes two cases of intravenous leiomyomatosis with its detailed morphological pattern, molecular genetic findings, and a brief literature review. Losses of heterozygosity of microsatellite repeats thatwere located on chromosome 10 in 10q22.1 and common in uterine leiomyosarcomas were found in both cases. Investigations of the morphological and biological characteristics of leimyomatosis are important to clarify the key molecular mechanisms underlying the development of this nosological entity and to determine etiopathogenetic relationships between intravenous leiomyomatosis and other uterine smooth muscle neoplasms.

Интравенозный лейомиоматоз - редкое заболевание из группы опухолей с неопределенным потенциалом злокачественности. Приведено описание двух наблюдений интравенозного лейомиоматоза с подробной морфологической картиной и данными молекулярно-генетического исследования, кратким обзором литературы. В обоих случаях выявлены потери гетерозиготности микросателлитных повторов, расположенных на 10-й хромосоме, в районе 10q22.1, часто наблюдающиеся при лейомиосаркомах матки. Исследования морфологических и биологических характеристик лейомиоматоза важны для выяснения ключевых молекулярных механизмов развития данной нозологии и определения этиопатогенетических отношений между интравенозным лейомиоматозом и другими гладкомышечными новообразованиями матки.
