Gynecological sarcomas: what's new in 2018, a brief review of published literature

imagePurpose of review In this article, we focus on recent published data (2017) on the management of gynecologic sarcomas. Recent findings The most significant data published in 2017 develop definition of a new molecular subtype of high grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) using molecular technics added to histological analysis. The identification of a new translocation on presumed uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) points to refinement of nosological classification, with fragmentation of even rare tumors into distinct molecular entities: gynecologic sarcomas are now distinguished into distinct entities from a heterogeneous group of tumors. Other articles have discussed the real incidence of unsuspected sarcomas after fibroid mini-invasive surgery and evaluate the risk of relapse and dissemination after morcellation. Among several criteria, preoperative imagery could become a useful tool. For systemic treatment, no clinical trials changing practices were published, only one positive nonrandomized phase II with carboplatin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in the treatment of uterine sarcomas after the conventional first line, especially in LMSs and ESSs. Summary Many articles were published on this confidential domain in oncology demonstrating interests on rare sarcomas. All specialties were represented in the literature, even though we are still waiting for urgent improvements in early diagnosis and therapeutic strategies to transform the poor prognostic of these tumors.
