Staging of uterine sarcomas

Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2011
Uterine sarcomas comprise leiomyosarcoma, endometrial stromal sarcoma, adenosarcoma, undifferentiated endometrial sarcoma, and their variants. Carcinosarcoma is historically classified as sarcoma, but it is now regarded as a metaplastic carcinoma. Uterine sarcomas are rare, and are traditionally staged in the same way as endometrial carcinoma.

Uterine sarcomas: A review

Gynecologic Oncology, 2010
Uterine sarcomas are rare tumors that account for 3% of uterine cancers. Their histopathologic classification was revised by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2003. A new staging system has been recently designed by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO).

Uterine Sarcomas: Then and Now

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2012
The purpose of this article is to provide an updated review of uterine sarcomas. The traditionally described neoplasms are reviewed as well as several recently characterized entities in terms of their imaging and clinical aspects. We attempt to provide a longitudinal imaging overview, from initial presentation to follow-up.

Uterine morcellation and survival in uterine sarcomas

European Journal of Cancer, 2018
There is concern but no solid evidence that morcellation during laparoscopic or vaginal hysterectomy may cause abdominal spread and thereby impaired prognosis of incidental uterine sarcomas.Our purpose was to compare survival among patients with uterine sarcomas who underwent hysterectomy with or without morcellation to test the hypothesis that ...

Uterine Sarcomas: A Clinicopathologic Study

Oncology, 2009
A series of 48 cases with initial diagnosis of uterine sarcoma was reviewed to evaluate the validity of histologic criteria. The influence of pathologic and clinical prognostic factors and treatment modalities were examinated. The 32 patients included in this retrospective study after pathologic review had 5-year overall survival rate of 13.1 ...

Uterine sarcomas

Current Problems in Cancer, 2019
Uterine sarcomas comprise a small percentage of uterine malignancies. The most common uterine sarcoma is leiomyosarcoma (LMS). Early stage uterine LMS is curable with complete hysterectomy with removal of an intact uterus. Patients with metastatic disease may achieve tumor responses with improvements in quality of life, but long-term remissions are ...

MR Imaging of Uterine Sarcomas

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2001
The MR imaging appearances of uterine sarcomas are not well described in the literature. We describe the MR imaging features of uterine sarcomas.MR images from all patients with histologically proven uterine sarcomas scanned between 1993 and 2000 were reviewed.

PTEN Mutations in Uterine Sarcomas

Gynecologic Oncology, 2002
Uterinesarcomas comprise three main types: carcinosarcomas, leiomyosarcomas, and endometrial stromal sarcomas. Carcinosarcomas are highly aggressive neoplasms with a biphasic histology of carcinomatous and sarcomatous elements. It is now generally accepted that carcinosarcomas are biphasic tumors that have to be regarded as endometrial carcinomas where

The Management of Uterine Sarcomas

Clinical Oncology, 2008
Uterine sarcomas remain challenging tumours to manage and need multi-disciplinary care. This article reviews the surgical and adjuvant treatments for these tumours. The importance of surgical staging is discussed and the need for careful review of the pathology. Newer classifications will help to distinguish the different types as we now recognise that
