Adenosquamous carcinoma of the small intestine. Report of a case and review of the literature.
Primary adenosquamous carcinomas of the intestine are rare tumors, particularly those occurring in the small bowel. We report the third case of an adenosquamous carcinoma of the ileum in a 55-year-old-man. Histologically, the tumor consisted of malignant glandular and squamous elements. A review of the literature is presented.
