Abstract
Psammoma bodies were found in less than 9 % of 235 cases of endometrial carcinoma, considering both biopsies and surgical specimens. They may originate in papillary adenocarcinoma and do not indicate a slightly infiltrating or a well-differentiated tumor. The clinical profile of patients closely resembles that of women with endometrial carcinoma, but survival appears worse.
