Uterine adenosarcoma. Report of 5 cases and review of literature
2021
Uterine adenosarcoma is an uncommon biphasic tumor with benign epithelial and malignant mesenchymal components, often presenting difficulties for morphological diagnosis. We describe 5 cases of adenosarcoma of the uterine corpus and cervix, and vaginal stump in patients aged 46-76 years. Clinical data, ultrasound results, morphological data, including immunohistochemical studies with antibodies to CD10, estrogen and progesterone receptors, desmin, smooth muscle actin, and Ki-67 are presented. Large polypoid mass of the epithelial-mesenchymal structure within the uterine cavity in women of peri - and postmenopausal age require the exclusion of malignancy of the mesenchymal component with searchig for diagnostic criteria - periglandular cuffing of the stromal cells and mitoses.
