Mullerian adenosarcoma is a rare tumor that usually arises in the uterus. Occasional cases arising in endometrial implants have been reported. We report the computed tomography (CT) findings of histologically proven mullerian adenosarcoma arising in perirectal endometriosis in a 46-year-old woman.

BACKGROUND Metanephric neoplasms comprised a spectrum of kidney tumors containing renal epithelial or stromal cells or both, including metanephric adenoma, metanephric stromal tumor, and metanephric adenofibroma. The majority of cases were benign; only one case of "metanephric adenosarcoma" had been reported in the English literature. HISTORY We present the case of a 69-year-old man who devel...

BACKGROUND The diagnosis of uterine sarcoma is associated with poor outcome for the patient and there is a need for reliable prognostic markers. Most previous studies on the prognostic value of DNA ploidy include few uterine sarcomas and report conflicting results. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined the prognostic value of DNA ploidy and its association with clinicopathological parameters and ...

Uterine carcinosarcoma, also known as Malignant Mixed Müllerian Tumour, is a high-grade biphasic neoplasm composed of sarcomatous elements thought to originate via transdifferentiation from high-grade endometrial carcinoma. To identify molecular factors contributing to the histogenesis of this tumour, we analyzed DNA extracted from matched carcinoma and sarcoma components from 12 cases of carci...
