MR imaging of endometrial stromal sarcoma: correlation with pathologic findings.

Abstract

Endometrial stromal sarcoma typically presents with extensive myometrial involvement, which is either sharply demarcated or diffusely infiltrative. Bands of low signal intensity are observed within the areas of myometrial involvement on T2-weighted images. These bands correspond to the preserved bundles of myometrium on pathologic examination. Tumor extension along the vessels or ligaments is another characteristic of MR imaging of endometrial stromal sarcoma.
