Spindle Cell Sarcoma of the Uterine Cervix: A Case Report and Review of Literature

Introduction: Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common histology of the uterine cervix. Sarcomatoid variety of the cervix cancer is a rare morphologic entity. The prognosis for women with cervical sarcoma tends to be worse than that of squamous histology.

Case Presentation: We are reporting a case of a 57 years old female with primary malignant cervical tumour showing spindle cell tumour in histopathology and immunohistochemistry positive for cytokeratin and vimentin.

Interventions: Patient underwent abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral Salphingoophorectomy and post op event was uneventful. The final diagnosis of Spindle cell sarcoma was confirmed by pathological and immunohistochemical examination.

Conclusion: Spindle cell Sarcoma of the cervix is a rare pathology. High grade Spindle cell tumours continue to have a poor prognosis due to its highly malignant, aggressive, and refractory nature to local treatment which necessitates the early intervention to improve the survival.
