Symposium part II: special types of adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix
Abstract
This report provides a comprehensive review of several special types of adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix. The clinicopathologic features of three tumors that may cause difficulties in diagnosis are detailed: adenoid basal carcinoma (epithelioma), adenoma malignum (minimal deviation adenocarcinoma), and mesonephric adenocarcinoma. Updated information on classification and clinical behavior are presented, as is data on their histochemical, immunohistochemical, and molecular profiles.
