title: Uterine adenosarcoma with rhabdomyosarcomatous overgrowth. Brief communication.
abstract: A case of a rhabdomyosarcomatous uterine adenosarcoma with sarcomatous overgrowth is presented. The rhabdomyosarcoma component constituted about 90% of the tumor. The patient died 5 years and 5 months after the operation. Rhabdomyosarcomatous uterine adenosarcoma even with a sarcomatous overgrowth does not seem to be more malignant than other adenosarcomas.
