Response of "benign" metastasizing leiomyoma to progestin withdrawal. Case report.

J D Cohen1, H I Robins.   

Abstract

We report a rare case of a benign metastasizing leiomyoma in which progestin therapy permitted or promoted pulmonary metastases, but progestin withdrawal induced a marked tumor regression. The significance of these observations is discussed relative to the estrogen and progesterone receptor positivity of this patient's tumor.
