Submitted by: Esther Oliva - Massachusetts General Hospital

 A 26-year-old female with no relevant past medical history presented with uterine bleeding of 3 weeks duration. An endometrial curettage was interpreted as a malignant neoplasm most consistent with sarcoma.

The patient underwent radical hysterectomy with extensive lymph node sampling. The tumor measured 5 x 4 x 3 cm. Sectioning revealed a heterogeneous cut surface with fleshy white to gray areas alternating with areas of necrosis.

If there are glass slides for a conference, they will be available for study in the microscope room in the Convention Center Room 101 for participants who wish to review them prior to the evening session.

Handouts for all Specialty Conferences will be accessible via the
"Educational Materials" section on the homepage the morning after each respective conference. Printed
copies of the handout will not be available at the meeting. However, we will provide a booklet at the
meeting which will have a page for each Specialty Conference, listing the names of speakers and space for the important "take home messages".
