Uterine corpus tumor with neuroectodermal differentiation and frequent ganglion-like cells in a postmenopausal woman

• Uterine neuroectodermal tumors (NETs) are uncommon malignant neoplasm with poor prognosis. • Ganglion-like cells with fibrillary background as major component of uterine NETs are extremely rare. • We present a patient affected by uterine NET with frequent ganglion-like cells, resembling ganglioneu...

description • Uterine neuroectodermal tumors (NETs) are uncommon malignant neoplasm with poor prognosis. • Ganglion-like cells with fibrillary background as major component of uterine NETs are extremely rare. • We present a patient affected by uterine NET with frequent ganglion-like cells, resembling ganglioneuroblastoma. • This case report is important to define the pathogenesis and establish better treatments for neuroectodermal tumors.
