Clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of uterine sarcoma: a 10-year retrospective single-center study in China

Uterine sarcoma is a rare and heterogeneous gynecological malignancy characterized by aggressive progression and poor prognosis. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between clinicopathological characteristics and the prognosis of uterine sarcoma in Chinese patients.

The histopathological types included 36 endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS,48
