title: Small cell carcinoma of the endometrium: A report of three cases.
abstract: Small cell carcinoma (SCC) is a tumour that occurs mostly in the lung, but may be found in any organ in the body. Since SCC of the endometrium is rare, clinical behaviour and management of the disease is not well-defined. The only known prognostic factor is the stage of the disease. Here, we reported three patients with SCC of the endometrium, their management and the follow-up period.
