Radical hysterectomy for cervical carcinoma in pregnant women--a case of decidua mimicking metastatic carcinoma in pelvic lymph nodes
Abstract
Intraoperative histology is commonly used to guide the treatment of women with carcinoma of the cervix. We present a case where frozen section of the pelvic lymph nodes from a pregnant woman was suggestive of metastatic cervical carcinoma but final histology showed only decidual change.
