Abstract

Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the gynecological tract are rare and aggressive tumors with no standardized management protocol. This group can be classified based on location of origin, morphologic features, and prognosis. In addition, NETs of the endometrium can co-occur with non-NET endometrial carcinoma. Our case concerns a 71-year-old female who was diagnosed with high-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma arising in conjunction with endometroid carcinoma with focal sarcomatoid features. We provide a succinct review of the literature in order to emphasize the development, diagnosis, management, and prognosis of NET of the endometrium.
