Uterine Smooth Muscle Tumors of Uncertain Malignant Potential: A Clinicopathologic Analysis of 16 Cases
American Journal of Surgical Pathology , 06/26/09

After a mean follow-up of 80.8 months, only 2 of 16 tumors in this study recurred. Both of the latter tumors fulfilled the criteria for atypical leiomyoma with limited experience.
