    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endometrial_stromal_sarcoma

    Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma consists of cells resembling normal proliferative phase endometrium, but with infiltration or vascular invasion. These behave less [3] aggressively, sometimes metastasizing, with cancer stage the best predictor of survival. The cells express estrogen/progesterone-receptors.

    Women with endometrial cancer should not have routine surveillance imaging to monitor the cancer unless new symptoms appear or tumor markers begin rising. Imaging without these indications is discouraged because it is unlikely to detect a recurrence or improve survival, and because it has its own costs and side effects. [ 83 ]

    Diagnosis of endometrial cancer is typically based on an endometrial biopsy. [1] A diagnosis of uterine sarcoma may be suspected based on symptoms, a pelvic exam, and medical imaging. [2] Endometrial cancer can often be cured while uterine sarcoma typically is harder to treat. [3]

  8. Endometrial stromal nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endometrial_stromal_nodule

    Endometrial Stromal Nodule. An endometrial stromal nodule is a noninfiltrative, circumscribed proliferation of endometrial stromal cells and is a benign subtype of endometrial stromal tumor. The appearance of the cells is identical to normal endometrial stromal cells. This can only be differentiated from low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma by ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uterine_serous_carcinoma

    It is an uncommon form of endometrial cancer that typically arises in postmenopausal women. It is typically diagnosed on endometrial biopsy, prompted by post-menopausal bleeding.
