title: [Adenocarcinoma of the endocervix. Clinical cases].
abstract: The Authors examined 8 cases of endocervical adenocarcinoma: 2 women with positive Pap-smear were colposcopically, micro-colpo-hysteroscopically (MCH) and histologically investigated and 6 with atypical bleeding were evaluated by endocervical curettage. They emphasized the role played by cytology, pointed out the necessity to find endocervical cells in the Pap-smear for catching the lesion in early stage and to save the patients a demolishing surgery.
