Abstract

Uterine papillary serous carcinoma is a distinct subtype of endometrial carcinoma by its histological features exhibiting papillary architecture, poor differentiation and advanced stage when the patient presents initially. Uterine papillary serous carcinoma(UPSC) comprises lesser than 10% of all endometrial cancers, it is the most intrusive subtype of endometrial carcinoma. This is a case report of a 70 year old symptomatic nulliparous woman, in whom endometrial biopsy revealed uterine papillary serous carcinoma.
