Abstract
Leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) is a rare clinical condition characterized by the development of multiple smooth muscle-like nodules in the peritoneal or abdominal cavity. Here, we report a case of a patient who was diagnosed with LPD after laparoscopic myomectomy with power morcellation. Growing evidence has shown that LPD might develop after using power morcellation for hysterectomy or myomectomy, and this can worsen the prognosis if the spreading tissue contains malignancies, such as leiomyosarcoma. Thus, it is crucial to use laparoscopic morcellation for gynecologic procedures cautiously, and the use of a containment system is even better. If LPD develops without evidence of malignancy, the primary treatment is surgical intervention, and gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, aromatase inhibitors, and selective progesterone receptor modulators can be prescribed as adjuvant therapies for recurrent or refractory cases.
