| Summary: | Endometrial Stromal Sarcomas (ESS) are rare uterine malignancy of mesodermal origin. A 65-year-old female presented with
postmenopausal bleeding in the Department of Gynaecology in our hospital. Computed Topography (CT) revealed an enlarged
uterus with areas of low attenuation. On gross appearance endometrial cavity was distorted with an irregular friable necrotic mass.
