Abstract:
Sarcomas account for fewer than 5% of all cancers of the uterine corpus. We present the last classification of The International Society of Gynecology Pathologists for pure sarcomas and also for mixed epithelial-nonepithelial tumors of the uterine corpus. The paper concerns with the study of a case of carcinosarcoma, treated in the III-rd Clinic of Gynecology from Iaşi. This morphological diagnostic represents the most common epithelial-nonepithelial tumor affecting the uterus. Immunohistochemistry with EMA confirms the theory of the combined tumor with a unique origin.
