Primary characteristics and outcomes of newly diagnosed low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To assess potential predictive variables for nodal metastasis and survival outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed, low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma.

Methods

We performed a single-institution, retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with newly diagnosed, low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma who presented between January 1, 1980 and December 31, 2019 and underwent hysterectomy at our institution or presented within 3 months of primary surgery elsewhere before recurrence. Patients who presented to our institution only at recurrence were excluded. Patients with <3 months of follow-up were excluded from survival analyses.

Results

We identified 127 consecutive patients for analysis. Median age at diagnosis was 48 years (range 19-88 years); 91 (74.6
