Endolymphatic stromal myosis (endometrial low-grade stromal sarcoma) presenting with hematuria: a diagnostic challenge.
In this case of a 41-year-old white woman who presented with hematuria, the diagnosis of metastatic endolymphatic stromal myosis (ESM) in the urinary bladder was reached on the basis of the histologic pattern and with the aid of intermediate filament typing. In the hysterectomy specimen the tumor foci of ESM were of minute size. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such an unusual clinical presentation of this lesion.
