Conservative Resectoscopic Surgery, Successful Delivery, and 60 Months of Follow-Up in a Patient with Endometrial Stromal Tumor with Sex-Cord-Like Differentiation

Abstract: 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 cord tumor (UTROSCT) differs widely from its closely related endometrial stromal tumors with sex-cord-like elements (ESTSCLE). Treatment and prognosis of these tumors are unresolved issues because of the exiguous number of reported cases. We describe a rare cas… Show more

“…A fertility-preserving option for younger women with UTROSCT has only recently been suggested by some authors (O'Meara et al, 2009, Blake et al, 2014, Jeong et al, 2015, De Franciscis et al, 2016, Berretta et al, 2009, Giordano et al, 2010, Anastasakis et al, 2008, Hillard et al, 2004, Garuti et al, 2009).
