Abstract
Uterine sarcomas are rare tumors with unpredictable prognosis. They ar e treated similarly to endometrial cancers. Little is known of epidemi ologic risk factors for or molecular alterations in sarcomas. Because of their rarity, uterine sarcomas are not suitable for screening. Chem oprevention studies might target those at risk for a second neoplasm.
