Abstract
|
|
|
|
Mullerian adenosarcoma which is characterized by admixture of benign-appearing neoplastic glands and sarcomatous stroma, is an uncommon variant of malignant mixed mullerian tumor (MMMT). Classic treatment for this rare tumor is hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Its prognosis is relatively poor, but better than MMMT. The efficacy of adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy is debatable and appears not to be promising. We report a 62-year-old female with mullerian adenosarcoma diagnosed after hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, which had shown unique ultrasonographic feature like hydatidiform mole and had been diagnosed as fibroadenoma in endometrial curettage, with brief review of literatures.
