What is your approach to recurrent metastatic high-grade uterine carcinosarcoma with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation?
Is your approach more similar to systemic therapy for endometrial cancer, uterine sarcoma, or soft tissue sarcoma?
Answer from: at Academic Institution
Carcinosarcomas (even with rhabdomyoblastic differentiation) are still considered to be derived from endometrial tissue. I would treat it as endometrial cancer and not as uterine or soft tissue sarcoma.
These cancers are shown to be derived from the endometrium, something called EMT (transformation).
I treat them as a poorly differentiated endometrial cancer. They are not sarcomas.
