An update in pathologic diagnosis of uterine mesenchymal tumours

Recent discovery of new disease-defining molecular alterations and development of novel targeted therapies has dramatically changed the classification and management of uterine mesenchymal neoplasms. This review discusses diagnostic updates in endometrial stromal sarcoma, PEComa, uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex cord tumor (UTROSCT), inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor, NTRK fusion uterine sarcoma, COL1A1-PDGFB fusion sarcoma, and SMARC-deficient uterine sarcoma. Key clinical, morphologic, immunophenotypic, and molecular features are reviewed, with emphasis on common differential diagnoses and pitfalls, and their impact on prognosis or management.
