[Diagnostic cytology and histology in the gynecologic malignant tumors]

Abstract

This report is on the exfoliative cytologic criteria in the diagnoses of uterine cervical, endometrial and ovarian cancer. It is of special importance to establish a differential diagnosis between ectocervical and endometrial lesions when considering adenocarcinomas. Cytological evaluation of ovarian cancers were performed on stump smears from excised surfaces. It is of great importance to pay special attention to the techniques used when obtaining cytologic specimens for evaluation.
