title: [Histology and cytology of a rare dysplastic adenosis of the cervix uteri with formation of a highly differentiated adenocarcinoma ("adenoma malignum")].
abstract: Extremely well-differentiated adenocarcinomas of the cervix are rare neoplasms and are often termed "adenoma malignum". Histology and cytology of the tumor are described in a 37 year old woman. Such adenocarcinomas are of four histological types: endometrioid, mucinous, clear cell and mixed. The cytological evaluation should be useful in some cases, a substantial number of cases show a normal smear or moderate dysplasia. When this disease is identified at an early stage and treated appropriately, the prognosis is not as unfavourable as earlier reports suggest.
