Abstract

Uterine liposarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of white adipose cell lipoblasts in domestic animals. In this case report, a greatly thickened myometrium with small gelatinous raised areas in the mucosa was observed during post mortem examination of a cow. Cytological examination revealed the presence of lipoblasts and histopathological examination indicated numerous pleomorphic lipoblasts in the submucosa of the uterus that encircled glandular structures. Liposarcomas in the uterus are rare compared to lipomas in domestic animals. The study indicates the clinical signs of such tumors depend on the size and location of the tumor. The present study is significant as it serves as a reference for diagnosing similar cases in the livestock industry.
