Two Cases of Low Grade Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma

Abstract

Endometrial stromal sarcomas are rare uterine tumors accounting for about 0.2% of female genital tract malignancy. These tumors are divided into two subtypes: low grade and high grade. Low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma is composed of cells mimicking the proliferative endometrial stromal cells that infiltrate the myometrium; high grade endometrial stromal sarcoma is poorly differentiated sarcoma without specific features or heterologous elements but with an infiltrating pattern that originated from endometrial stromal cells. We report two cases of low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma with a brief review of literatures.
