Low Grade Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma in 40 years old female - A rare case report
Journal Title: International Archives of Integrated Medicine - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Endometrial uterine sarcoma is a very rare tumour of the uterine cavity with an incidence of 1-2 cases per 100,000 women. Low grade Endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) is an occasional diagnosis in a patient presenting as leiomyoma uterus. The symptoms are nonspecific, mostly abnormal uterine bleeding in perimenopausal women. Clinically and radiologically it is difficult to diagnose this entity. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of LGESS. In addition of surgery chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy treatments will be quite useful in all cases of LGESS. This case report of Low grade Endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) is presented here because of its rarity.
