  • Villoglandular Carcinoma of Cervix: A Clinicopathological Analysis

    ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathological features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of villoglandular carcinoma of the uterine cervix. MethodsThe clinical data of a 34-year-old patient diagnosed with villoglandular carcinoma of cervix on April 6, 2010 was retrospectively analyzed. Surgical excision samples were analyzed by means of hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical staining. ResultsThe gross appearance of the tumor mass showed cauliflower-like pattern of growth. Histologically, it was similar to colorectal villoglandular adenoma, and was composed of branching papillae shaped like villous glandular tube structure, and the surface was coated with pseudostratified or stratified columnar cells which showed mild atypia and uncommon mitotic figures. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were positive for carcinoma embryonic antigen, CK7 and CA125, and negative for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, P16, p53 and vimentin. This patient was subjected to a follow-up of 48 months, and was alive without recurrence or metastasis. ConclusionsVilloglandular carcinoma of the uterine cervix is rare and has a favorable prognosis. The diagnosis of villoglandular carcinoma depends on pathological morphology, and meanwhile, it is necessary to distinguish villoglandular carcinoma from other benign and malignant tumors which exhibited papillary growth pattern.
