Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma of Cervix: Radical Trachelectomy to Preserve the Fertility
2016
Carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a common gynecologic
malignant neoplasm all over the world. The most common histological
type of malignant cervical neoplasms is squamous cell carcinoma [1,2].
Clear cell adenocarcinomas (CCAC) of the uterine cervix is a rare
disease accounting for only 4% of all adenocarcinomas of the uterine
cervix [3]. Primary CCAC of the uterine cervix is a rare neoplastic
entity which occurs in young women exposed to DES in utero; primary
CCAC without DES exposure in utero is extremely rare. Here we
report a 23- years-old Spanish female with primary CCA of the uterine
cervix with no maternal history of DES ingestion during pregnancy.
