[Uterine "glioma"].
In a 23-year-old woman without any subjective complaints a small cervical polyp was detected during systematic examinations. The histologic finding of the removed polyp showed accumulations of gliogenous tissue. This finding is very rare; in the literature available only 27 similar cases are recorded. Most authors are inclined to consider this tissue as implanted by instruments in the course of abortion. The change is considered an entity and uterine "glioma" is reported as the most appropriate term for it.
