[Correlation of cervicovaginal cytology and histology in endometrial cancer].
Authors compared the results of 242 cytologic examinations of patients suffering from endometrial carcinoma with the histologic picture of the tumour. Conventional methods of cytodiagnostic screening in case of less differentiated tumours were found to give better results. Results of hormonal cytologic examinations demonstrate that there is an inverse relation between differentiation of tumour and maturity of vaginal epithelium. The authors analyze this observation with regard to the receptor theory of the malignant transformation of the endometrium.
