Morphology of adenocarcinomain situ of the uterine cervix: A study of 14 cases

Abstract: Fourteen cases of adenocarcinoma in situ (ACIS) of the cervix in patients 30 to 52 years old were studied. In its pure form (four cases, ACIS was discovered cytologically, but when associated with a squamous abnormality (ten cases), it was found histologically. Two different types of ACIS were distinguished both histologically and cytologically. The first type, which was similar to the common form reported in the medical literature, predominated in 12 cases, and consisted of cells with hyperchromatic and pseud… Show more

“…8). This pleomorphic type of AIS has been described previously with or without concurrent invasion 4, 5, 7. Because cells of this AIS variant simulate those sometimes found in early invasive glands, it is tempting to speculate that they have an increased invasive potential.…”

“…Including cases in the current study, the mean patient age in 205 cases of early invasive adenocarcinoma is 43.0 years 10–12, 16. The mean patient age in 301 cases of AIS is 37.8 years,4, 8, 17–24 suggesting an average time span of approximately 5 years in the transition from AIS to invasive adenocarcinoma of the cervix. However, because early invasive lesions may be more easily detected clinically than AIS, this time span probably underestimates the true mean interval in the progression from AIS to invasion.…”

“…Many authors have already studied cytological and histological changes in the glandular and squamous epithelium of the uterine cervix in recent years [10][11][12][13]. An important step towards the evaluation of the findings of epithelium abnormalities was in 2001 the Bethesda system which supported the communication between gynecologists and cytopathologists [14,15].…”
