Squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the endometrium and fallopian tube as superficial extension of invasive cervical carcinoma

Abstract: Five cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix associated with widespread squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the endometrial surface are reported. In one case, carcinoma in situ was also found in one fallopian tube in continuity with the cervicoendometrial lesion. A survey of the literature reveals only 20 cases with similar surface endometrial involvement by cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Of these, the fallopian tubes were involved by an identical lesion in six cases only. Pyometra and cervical stenos… Show more

“…1,2,7,12 The present case showed microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma of cervix with an upward extension to uterine corpus due to a superficial spread and thus, replacing the entire surface epithelium. When squamous epithelium shows dysplastic changes on endometrial biopsy or curettage, it raises possibility of significant cervical pathology and emphasizes the importance of extensive grossing and sampling for proper diagnosis and management.…”

“…La resonancia nuclear magnética, puede ser de ayuda, pero no debe ser malinterpretada como carcinoma de endometrio, especialmente si la neoplasia cervical uterina es pequeña o no sospechada (6) Macroscópicamente, el endometrio comprometido se describe gris blanquecino, focal o parcialmente rugoso o trabeculado. Este particular aspecto de placas blanquecinas se ha comparado con una "torta glaseada" (7,8,9).…”

“…Las teorías que intentan explicar esta particular forma de diseminación apuntan a un compromiso secundario a invasión miometrial, diseminación linfática o más frecuentemente por diseminación horizontal o superficial a través del deslizamiento mecánico de las células neoplásicas (8). También se ha postulado su origen en forma primaria o de novo en el endometrio, a partir de la malignización de una metaplasia epidermoide en la superficie endometrial, un adenocarcinoma endometrioide con diferenciación escamosa o según la teoría de la cancerización de campo, surgir como foco separado del cuello a raíz del mismo factor etiológico o diseminación vertical, que originó la neoplasia cervical.…”
