We report a malignant case of breast neoplasm, with the diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma. This rare neoplasm has a less aggressive biological behavior than the other types of breast sarcomas. That is the reason why we emphasize the correct diagnosis, and the necessity of graduating the neoplasm, for the patient's best follow-up. In our case, after 2 years of follow-up the patient continued with no relapse of the disease.
