Signs and Symptoms
Based on the provided context, it appears that there are limited resources available for an "obsolete" uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasm. However, I can try to provide some general information on signs and symptoms related to similar conditions.
Common Signs and Symptoms:
While specific information on obsolete uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasm is scarce, the following symptoms are commonly associated with various types of uterine neoplasms:
- Abdominal or pelvic pain [11]
- Vaginal bleeding [11]
- Persistent cough (in cases where the tumor has spread to the lungs) [11]
- Unexplained weight loss [11]
- New-onset constipation or bowel changes
- Changes in menstrual cycle or vaginal discharge
Rare but Possible Symptoms:
In some cases, uterine neoplasms can cause more severe symptoms, including:
- Abdominal distension (swelling)
- Fainting or dizziness due to blood loss
- Weakness or fatigue
- Nausea and vomiting
Please note that these symptoms are not specific to obsolete uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasm and may be associated with various other conditions. If you suspect you have a medical condition, it is essential to consult a qualified healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Treatment Options for Obsolete Uterine Corpus Soft Tissue Neoplasms
Uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasms, also known as uterine sarcomas, are rare and aggressive tumors that make up approximately 3% of all uterine malignancies [7][1]. While surgical treatment is considered the gold standard for localized disease [10], drug treatment options have been explored for advanced or recurrent cases.
Historical Treatment Options
In the past, treatment with existing antitumor drugs such as Doxorubicin and Olaratumab has been attempted, although their effectiveness was limited [13]. Palliative radiation therapy was also used to manage symptoms in advanced cases.
Modern Treatment Options
More recently, targeted therapies have emerged as potential treatments for uterine sarcomas. Trabectedin, an inhibitor of topoisomerase I and II, has shown promise in treating leiomyosarcoma [11]. Additionally, Pazopanib, a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been approved for the treatment of advanced soft tissue sarcoma, including uterine sarcomas [12][15].
Other Investigational Agents
Research is ongoing to explore other potential treatments for uterine sarcomas. For example, Catumaxomab, a monoclonal antibody targeting EphB2 and CD3ε, has been investigated in clinical trials [4]. However, more research is needed to determine its efficacy and safety.
Conclusion
While surgical treatment remains the primary approach for localized uterine sarcomas, drug treatment options are being explored for advanced or recurrent cases. Targeted therapies such as Trabectedin and Pazopanib have shown promise in treating these aggressive tumors. Further research is necessary to identify effective treatments for obsolete uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasms.

Differential Diagnosis
The differential diagnosis for obsolete uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasms involves a range of conditions that can mimic the characteristics of these tumors.
- Benign lesions: Mesonephric hyperplasia, a non-cancerous growth, can be mistaken for soft tissue neoplasms.
- [1] cites mesonephric hyperplasia as a differential diagnosis.
- Other malignant tumors: Endometrial stromal sarcoma and leiomyosarcoma are two types of cancer that can be confused with soft tissue neoplasms of the uterine corpus.
- [8] mentions endometrial stromal sarcoma as an example of a malignant neoplasm originating from the uterine corpus.
- Soft-tissue neoplasms: Arborizing vasculature, highly cellular leiomyoma, and other soft tissue neoplasms can be difficult to distinguish from soft tissue neoplasms of the uterine corpus.
- [10] lists several soft-tissue neoplasms that demonstrate arborizing vasculature.
In addition to these conditions, the differential diagnosis for obsolete uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasms also includes:
- Rhabdomyosarcoma: A rare type of cancer that can be mistaken for a soft tissue neoplasm.
- [12] mentions rhabdomyosarcoma as an example of a tumor with obscure cell derivation.
- Undifferentiated uterine sarcoma: A rare and aggressive form of cancer that can be difficult to diagnose.
- [12] also mentions undifferentiated uterine sarcoma as an example of a tumor with obscure cell derivation.
Overall, the differential diagnosis for obsolete uterine corpus soft tissue neoplasms is complex and requires careful consideration of various conditions.
