J Urol. 1983 Aug;130(2):344-6. doi: 10.1016/s0022-5347(17)51142-8.

Abstract

We report a case of leiomyosarcoma in the bladder 8 years after completion of 45 months of cyclophosphamide chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease. One year after cystoprostatectomy a large fibroblastic tumor arose in the soft tissues of the pelvis.
