Adenoepidermoid and adenosquamous carcinoma of the uterus. A clinicopathologic study of 118 cases.
A series of 118 cases of adenoepidermoid carcinoma and adenosquamous tumors of the uterus is presented. The results indicate that cervical tumors are frequently occult and are often not diagnosed until late in the course of the disease. Stage for stage, the five-year survival rate is poorer than the usual results for cervical malignancy. Endometrial tumors also had a poor five-year survival rate, with a high incidence of myometrial extension. The incidence of myometrial invasion and survival figures were similar to those for poorly differentiated endometrial cancer.
