Abstract

•A rare case of recurrent peritoneal sarcomatosis (PS) arising from aggressive uterine myxoid leiomyosarcoma was described.•Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has the potential to improve outcomes in PS from uterine sarcoma.•Careful patient selection for cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC is important to achieve better outcomes in PS.
