Vaginal Endometrial Stroma Sarcoma: A Case Report of A Rare Disease.

Abstract

Vaginal endometrial stromal sarcoma (VESS) arising in the vagina is an extremely rare extrauterine endometrial stromal sarcoma, Stroma Sarcoma. To the best of our knowledge, there have been only a few reported cases in the literature. Therefore, we herein report a case of VESS originating in the vagina. A 27-year-old woman complained of heavy and intermittent vaginal bleeding and abdominal swelling all of six months duration. A mass that was firm to hard in consistency was found in the middle and upper segments of the anterior, right lateral, and posterior fornices and wall of the vagina. An excisional biopsy was taken and the immunohistochemistry result revealed VESS. A cystoscopy was done which revealed polypoid metastatic nodules in the bladder (this put the stage of the disease at IV). She also had laparotomy following features of mechanical obstruction from previous pelvic and intraperitoneal adhesions which were formed from previous laparotomy.
