METHODS A 14-year-old girl presented with a pedunculated mass protruding from the vagina. Simple excision was performed. Histological evaluation revealed adenosarcoma. Her clinical course has been uneventful for fifteen months. CONCLUSIONS Adenosarcoma is a low malignant potential tumor of the female genital tract.
