title: [Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the cervix uteri].
abstract: Among 147 re-examined carcinomas of the uterine cervix from the years 1970 till 1975 eight mucoepidermoid carcinomas were found and described. Furthermore we report on one case of a mucoepidermoid carcinoma in situ. The mucous substances are dyed with PAS and the Alcianblue-PAS reaction. A detailed definition of "minimal mucous appearance" is worked out in order to classify a carcinoma as a mucoepidermoid carcinoma. An increase in the mucous producing tendency of squamous cell carcinomas as well as in the number of mucoepidermoid carcinomas during the last two years is stressed.
