Adenoid basal carcinoma combined with invasive squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix: A case report of a 37‐year‐old woman and literature review
2019
: Adenoid basal carcinoma (ABC) is uncommon malignancy of the uterine cervix and it can be pure or combined with cervical intraepithelial lesions. There were less than 20 cases of ABC combined with invasive squamous carcinoma (mixed type) in English literature. These cases had similar properties as seen at postmenopausal women and diagnosed with abnormal cervical smear findings. Here we present a case of 37-year-old woman who suffered from spotting and received endocervical curettage. The pathological report revealed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the cervix. The patient underwent type 3 radical hysterectomy and bilateral pelvic and para-aortic lymph node dissection. The final pathological report revealed SCC coexisting with ABC. Human papillomavirus (HPV) 16,18 and others (11 types) were negative in both components of the mixed tumor by in situ hybridization detection. Our case was cytokeratin 7 negative, cytokeratin 8 positive and p63 positive which supports the hypothesis that mixed type cervical carcinoma originates from endocervical reserve cells.
