We then profiled the metabolic characteristics of
uterine tumors using a newly developed PET parameter termed "metabolic tumor/necrosis ratio." Unfortunately, we were unable to reanalyze the images of seven patients (whose raw data were lost because of a >10-year storage time).
Uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex-cord tumors (UTROSCT) represent a rare form of tumors that affect the uterine body [1].
In the case of patients with a history of uterine leiomyoma, especially if they had undergone
uterine tumor surgery, the possible diagnosis of BML should be considered when pulmonary nodules and diffuse lesions are present.
This case study documents an interesting report which explains the incidence of
uterine tumor in buffaloes that could also act as a risk factor for infertility.

uterine tumors," The American Journal of Roentgenology, vol.
(2,9) A fibroma-like stromal pattern is described in more than one-half of LGEESSs and is uncommon in
uterine tumors (Figure 2, A).
Recent genetic studies confirm a shared profile between BML and
uterine tumor [6, 7, 12].
In the present study, we have demonstrated for the first time some molecular characteristics of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the endometrium which is an extremely rare
uterine tumor [12-16].
Previously, two reported cases of urinary obstruction caused by
uterine tumor also involved a simple total hysterectomy [2, 3].
Radiological Imaging Studies show a round
uterine tumor with dense and well-defined calcifications.
Report shows that the largest
uterine tumor ever removed from a patient that survived the procedure weighed 45.4 kg (8).
