An unusual case of carcinoma with mesonephric‐like features with a spindle cell component diagnosed on the Pap test of the uterine cervix: Cytomorphologic and immunophenotypic features and diagnostic pitfalls
Abstract:Mesonephric-like adenocarcinomas (MLA) are rare neoplasms arising in the cervix, endometrium, and ovary. In contrast to mesonephric carcinomas (MC), mesonephriclike adenocarcinomas are not associated with mesonephric remnants. Both entities have a similar appearance with regards to varying histomorphology patterns, including glandular, tubular, spindled, solid, and papillary, and have a specific immunophenotype and molecular features. We present a case of a 54-year-old HPV-negative woman with a Pap test that e… Show more
