Abnormal vaginal bleeding was the most common symptom. Three common types of uterine sarcoma were leiomyosarcoma (50.0%), low\u2010grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (23.1%), and carcinosarcoma (19.2%). Some imaging features of uterine sarcomas were found including nontypical lesion of fibroid (89.7%), solitary mass (84.6%), inhomogeneous structure (76.9%), invisible endometrium (67.9%), moderate\u2010rich vascularization on Doppler signal (57.7%), irregular border of tumor (48.7%), classification of FIGO 0 (44.9%), cystic area within tumor (42.3%), acoustic shadowing (34.6%), \u201ccooked\u201d appearance (9.0%), and calcification image in tumor (6.4%). The sensitivity of standard US, consultant US, and MRI was 56.4%, 88.4%, and 87.5%, respectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Besides clinical presentations, uterine sarcomas present some specific features on US.
