[Leiomyosarcoma and Stauffer syndrome].

INTRODUCTION: Stauffer's syndrome is a non-metastatic anicteric cholestasis and an inflammatory syndrome usually associated with renal cell carcinoma. EXEGESIS: We present a case report of an eighty-four-year-old woman who had a leiomyosarcoma revealed by Stauffer's syndrome, which disappeared after surgery. CONCLUSION: Abnormal secretion of interleukin-6 by the leiomyosarcoma could explain this syndrome. The association of Stauffer's syndrome and leiomyosarcoma has never been described.
