We report the magnetic resonance features of 3 cases with pathological correlation. Small cell carcinoma is shown as a bulky endometrial tumor of heterogeneous appearance on T2-weighted images, frequently associated with diffuse myometrium invasion and early extrauterine spread. Irregular enhancement with multifocal unenhanced areas of the thickened myometriumon contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images may represent the infiltrative nature of the tumor with extensive necrosis.}, pages = {485--489}, title = {Small Cell Carcinoma of the Uterine Corpus: MR Imaging and Pathological Correlation.}, volume = {31}, year = {2007} }
