Dear Zenggang,
I hope this note finds you well. I have not heard from you since our Colorado meet at USCAP meeting. I am sure I will see you next year in Boston. Thank you for sharing this fantastic case. Based on classic gross picture, morphology and immunoreactive profile, I am concerned about " Uterine Tumor resembling ovarian sex cord tumor (UTROSCT). Of course the differential is always ESTSCLE ( Endometrial stromal tumor with sex cord-like elements). Based on CD10 negativity, I favor the former, since 9 out of 10 ESS (endometrial stromal tumor) will be positive for CD10. Sometimes you can see focal CD10 positivity in typical UTROSCT cases. I would like to know if you have chance to run calretinin, CD99 and Melan A on this case.
For starter, I want to caution you to make UTROSCT diagnosis base on EM biopsy or curretting since so much overlapping features between ESS and UTROSCT. Clinically UTROSCT has much better prognosis than ESS. Whenever you deal with a dilemma like this case, you always think to order Calretinin, CD99 and Melan A.
Thanks again for sharing and I am looking forward for your final answer.
