DOI: 10.1111/his.14274
Abstract: Uterine plexiform tumourlets are traditionally regarded as microscopic epithelioid leiomyomas. They are typically solitary incidental findings, but may be multifocal (plexiform leiomyomatosis). We aim to report novel immunohistochemical and morphological findings, specifically the presence of… read more here.
