Molecular Landscape of Endometrial Stromal Tumors. [PDF]
JCO Precis OncolPURPOSE The molecular heterogeneity of endometrial stromal tumors (ESTs) is demonstrated by the presence of the same fusion gene in distinct pathologic entities, such as endometrial nodules and low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma, both exhibiting the ...

Mesenchymal tumors of the uterus. I. A clinical and pathological study of 53 endometrial stromal tumors [PDF]
Cancer, 1966 The clinical and pathologic features of 53 endometrical stromal tumors were studied to determine which pathologic characteristics were related to the clinical behavior. Morphologically, stromal tumors were divided into 2 groups: 18 tumors with pushing margins (stromal nodules) and 35 tumors with infiltrating margins (endolymphatic stromal myosis or ...

Diagnosis of endometrial stromal tumors: a clinicopathologic study of 25 biopsy specimens with identification of problematic areas. [PDF]
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2014 OBJECTIVES To assess the difficulties associated with diagnosing endometrial stromal tumors (ESTs) on endometrial biopsy. METHODS We examined 25 endometrial biopsy specimens from 19 consecutive women diagnosed with either endometrial stromal nodule (n =

Endometrial stromal tumors with sex cord-like elements: a case report
The Pan African Medical Journal, 2013 Endometrial stromal nodules are rare. They represent less than a quarter of endometrial stromal tumors. Clement and Scully described as variants of endometrial stromal nodules two types of tumor ressembling ovarian sex cord tumors.

Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics, 2023 Background: Endometrial stromal tumors (ESTs) are rare subset of mesenchymal uterine neoplasms. There are heterogeneous morphological, immunohistochemical, and genetic features. Approximately 50% of ESTs occur in perimenopausal women.

Conservative Resectoscopic Surgery, Successful Delivery, and 60 Months of Follow-Up in a Patient with Endometrial Stromal Tumor with Sex-Cord-Like Differentiation [PDF]
Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2016 Uterine tumors with sex-cord-like differentiation are extremely rare types of uterine stromal neoplasm. These tumors were classified into two groups with considerable practical relevance because clinical behaviour of uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex ...

Practical issues related to uterine pathology: endometrial stromal tumors [PDF]
Modern Pathology, 2016 Uterine mesenchymal tumors continue to be a challenge to diagnose due to their non-specific clinical presentation, often non-distinctive gross appearance, varied (and many times overlapping) morphologic appearance, and unsuspected pitfalls in immunohistochemical expression.

Metastatic low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma of uterus presenting as a primary pancreatic tumor: case presentation and literature review [PDF]
Diagnostic Pathology, 2019 Background Metastatic tumors to the pancreas are uncommon, accounting for approximately 2% of pancreatic malignancies. The most common primary tumors to give rise to pancreatic metastases are carcinomas. Case presentation A 50-year old female patient was

Molecular Insights in Endometrial Stromal Sarcomas: Exploring New Targets for Novel Therapeutic Approaches [PDF]
BiomoleculesUterine mesenchymal tumors (UMTs) are the second most common type of tumors within the uterus corpus after endometrial carcinomas. Among the UMTs, smooth muscle neoplasms are the most common subtype, followed by endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS).
