Abstract

High-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (HGESS) is a very rare kind of uterine tumor that accounts for less than 2% of all uterine cancers. The usual sites of metastasis are the abdomen and lung, while bone metastasis is very rare, with only a few cases reported till now. We present a case of HGESS with bone metastasis and review the literature.
