Risk of Occult Uterine Sarcoma in Women Undergoing Hysterectomy for Benign Indications

Abstract

In summary, occult uterine sarcoma occurs in 0.089% or 1 in 1,124 hysterectomies for benign indications in our population. The frequency is lower than the rate derived in earlier reports and by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in their pooled analysis.
