Abstract:

Uterine collision tumor is a rare pathological type composed of two or more malignant tumors with few related reports. Its etiology and pathogenesis are still unclear. Clinical manifestations and imaging examinations are not specific, and preoperative diagnosis is difficult, mainly rely on pathological examination to make an accurate diagnosis. There are various histological types of uterine collision tumors, while no standardized treatment guidelines have been established so far. The comprehensive treatment mainly consists of surgery and radiotherapy, supplemented by chemotherapy, and the prognosis is quite different. In recent years, the incidence of uterine malignant tumors has been increasing. With the extensive use of experimental techniques such as immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in clinical pathology, the detection rate of uterine collision tumors has been increased. This article reviews the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of uterine collision tumors, in order to increase people′s comprehensive understanding of uterine collision tumors, making early and accurate diagnosis, and implement clinical intervention measures to improve the prognosis of patients.
