Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma with extensive sex cord differentiation, heterologous elements, and complex atypical hyperplasia: Case report and review of literature

• Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) may have sex cord differentiation, usually focal. • Diagnosis of ESS is difficult when variant morphology predominates. • Prognosis differs between ESS and UTROSCT; therefore, distinction is critical. • Extensive tumor sampling is mandatory to identify neoplastic...

Sumario:• Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) may have sex cord differentiation, usually focal. • Diagnosis of ESS is difficult when variant morphology predominates. • Prognosis differs between ESS and UTROSCT; therefore, distinction is critical. • Extensive tumor sampling is mandatory to identify neoplastic endometrial stroma. • Sex cord differentiation may be associated with endometrial hyperplasia.
