Other Comments:
Several Grammatical errors

The topic is known in gyn literature - what would make the case more helpful would be some photographs and histological slides - films and specimen pictures. Also a discussion of surgical approaches would help in today's time delineating the increased morcellation of specimens and how to have an index of suspicion to avoid it. This 18 week uterus could easily have been done as a TLH and then removed per vagina without morcellation in the abdomen.

Author has reported a rare case uterine malignancy. Role of progesterone and aromtase inhibitors can be discussed in adjuvant therapy. Conclusion is too lengthy

I sugges any patient who present abnorma uterine bleeding should undergo preoperative D&C and pap smear because we have been able to diagnose endometial sromal sarcoma with similar presentation preoperatively.

Other Comments:
This case report describes a case of endometrial stromal sarcoma diagnosed postoperatively. The paer needs revision in the language and the syntax. At many places there is repition of words or sentence and at one or two places proper mention of some points are missing. The Conclusion is too long and not representative of the case reported.
