Abstract
|
|
|
Uterine tumors with ovarian sex-cord like differentiation are composed predominantly or entirely of tubular epithelial-like structures. They wre probably of endometrial stromal differentiation because similar epithelial-like nests can be found in
otherwise characteristic endometrial stromal tumors. Most of the patients in whom the tumors occurred were in the fifth decade of life. It has been suggested that the plexiform tumors is a type of epithelioid leiomyoma, but it also has some
similarity
to the uterine sex cord-like tumors, since both are composed of epithelial-like cords set within a fibrillar stroma. Because of the rarity of the tumor and its uncertain histogenesis, the case report of a patient with uterine tumor resembling
ovarian
sec-cord tumor is summarized and present with a brief review of its literature.
