[Minimal deviation adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix].
A 33 year-old female with minimal deviation adenocarcinoma of the endocervix is presented. In two years five biopsies were needed to make the diagnosis. There was association with bilateral mucinous cystadenomas of the ovary. Even under radiotherapy and surgical resection the clinical outcome was fatal with 2 years of survival rate. The tumor shows fairly well differentiated endocervical glands which may be confused with different forms of endocervical hyperplasia but the clinical course is aggressive and fatal.
