Summary An endometrial neoplasm composed of both stromal and epithelial elements, in which only the epithelial element appeared malignant, is reported. Only two similar cases have previously been described. In view of the rarity of these neoplasms, little is known about their behaviour and this presents problems of management particularly in a young patient.
