Rarely diagnosed in authors department, uterine smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) is one of the histologic types of uterine sarcoma. Among women undergoing hysterectomy or myomectomy for a presumed diagnosis of leiomyoma, 0.01% receive a diagnosis of STUMP. Authors report a case occurring to a patient aged of 55 which was diagnosed, managed successfully and followed-up in authors department.
