Ask your sarcoma oncologist.  

See &&url in this section.

Wendy, an ACOR L-M-Sarcoma List Manager, has the algorithm program from MSKCC that will give death rates at 12 years for specific primary sites and grades of LMS tumor.  Ask on the L-M-Sarcoma Mailing List at ACOR, or look up the algorithm program online on the MSKCC site and download it.  

Do your own Pubmed search for your own primary site.  Go to &&url and type in the search box "survival AND XXXXX leiomyosarcoma" [but without the quotes.]   But put the name of your primary site there instead of XXXXX, then click on GO.

And having done all that and read all the statistics.... still...  Statistics just indicate that you have a serious situation.  They do NOT apply to individuals, ONLY to groups.  And having stage IV LMS, while it is not currently curable, does not mean imminent demise.  Some LMS patients have been in stage IV for 12 years and more.
