Carcinosarcomas are aggressive biphasic neoplasms composed of high-grade, malignant, epithelial, and mesenchymal elements. They usually occur in the uterus and rarely involve the ovaries. Only 10% of them are bilateral. Their diagnosis relies on histological examination coupled with immunohistochemistry.
