RESUMO
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Uterine smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) is rare tumor, and regarded as sub-classification in uterine smooth muscle tumors between benign and malignant criteria. They represent a heterogeneous group of rare tumors. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report a case of a STUMP tumor in a fifty-three-year-old patient who underwent surgery for a hysterectomy. DISCUSSION: STUMP often presents with nonspecific clinical manifestation the only confirmatory examination is anatomopathological and may be supported by immunohistochemistry, hysterectomy is currently considered the gold standard of treatment. CONCLUSION: Uterine STUMP tumor represents a therapeutic dilemma. A multidisciplinary approach is mandatory.
