Uterine mesenchymal neoplasms: new and evolving entities-Recording

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In today's webinar, Dr. Brooke Howitt discussed uterine mesenchymal neoplasms, highlighting new entities and molecular findings. She covered topics such as low-grade and high-grade endometrial stromal sarcomas, B-Core sarcomas, and NTRK sarcomas, emphasizing the importance of immunohistochemistry and molecular testing for accurate diagnosis. She also addressed challenges in distinguishing these tumors, such as cancel one rearranged sarcomas and SMARC-deficient uterine sarcomas, which have aggressive behavior. Dr. Howitt shared insights on identifying these tumors based on morphologic features and immunophenotype, recommending specific markers like cyclin D1 for certain sarcomas. She also touched on the evolving classification of these tumors and the need for further research in this field.
