Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is very rare malignant tumor that constitutes approximately 10 % of all uterine sarcomas but only 0.2 % of all uterine malignancies [1]. ESS can be mistaken for leiomyoma because clinical presentation mimics each other and often needs HPE to establish correct diagnosis [2, 3]. In this article, we report a case of ESS in a young unmarried female of 23 years, whi...

Two polypoid submucosal uterine lesions were examined histologically and immunohistochemically with monoclonal antibodies to desmin and alpha smooth muscle actin. One case comprised a leiomyoma and the other a polypoid form of adenomyosis. Both polyps had prolapsed through the external cervical os. The lesions had an ulcerated surface with focal areas of marked increased cellularity and pronoun...

endometrial stromal sarcoma (ess) is a rare malignant tumor of the endometrium, occurring in the age group of 40–50 years. we report a case of low-grade ess in a 39-year-old woman, presenting as rapid enlargement of a uterine fibroid polyp associated with irregular and excessive vaginal bleeding. polypectomy followed by pan hysterectomy was performed. histopathological examination and immunohis...

BACKGROUND Several reports have shown that postoperative monitoring of general safety and quality issues, including pain treatment, after discharge from recovery is often non-systematic and inadequate. We suggest a new score with assessment of key recovery parameters, as a supportive tool for postoperative care and a call-out algorithm for need of extra help. The aim of this investigation was t...

Tumour emboli from an endocardial metastasis of an endometrial stromal sarcoma caused recurrent and ultimately fatal strokes in a woman of 40. Endocardial metastases are rare. They are known to embolise to the pulmonary and systemic arteries but not to cause recurrent cerebral emboli.

OBJECTIVE The study was performed to present the sonographic findings of uterine endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS). MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of sonographic findings of 10 cases that were diagnosed as uterine ESS. The patients' ages ranged from 25 to 51 years (mean age: 36.1 years). The reviews focused on the location, margin, size, number and echotexture of th...

Uterine sarcomas are a rare heterogeneous group of tumors of mesenchymal origin, accounting for approximately 8% of uterine malignancies. They comprise leiomyosarcoma, endometrial stromal sarcoma, undifferentiated endometrial sarcoma, and adenosarcoma. Compared with the more common endometrial carcinomas, uterine sarcomas behave more aggressively and are associated with a poorer prognosis. Due ...
