Overview
Differentiating Uterine cancer from other Diseases
- In early disease, uterine cancer must be differentiated from other diseases causing endometrial thickening:
- benign endometrial proliferation
- endometrial hyperplasia
- endometrial polyp
- submucosal uterine leiomyoma
- Differential considerations for advanced lesions include:
- uterine sarcoma(s)
- endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS)
- leiomyosarcoma of the uterus
- malignant mixed Mullerian tumour (MMMT) of the uterus
- uterine lymphoma: rare
- primary uterine lymphoma
- secondary uterine involvement with lymphoma
- cervical cancer with uterine invasion
- metastasis to the uterus from a non gynaecologcial malignancy: rare
