Endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS) of the uterus are hormone-sensitive tumors. There have been reports in the literature confirming the regression of ESS with progestins, gonadotropin analogues, and aromatase inhibitors. We report a case of primary extrauterine ESS of the rectovaginal septum (RVS), which was poorly responsive and, in fact, progressed on progestin therapy. The question arises: i...
