Abstract

The clinical and pathologic features of 12 cervical adenosarcomas from the files of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology are described. The patients ranged in age from 13 to 67 years (mean 37). The majority (58%) presented with abnormal bleeding. All tumors were located in the cervix and consisted of soft, tan, polypoid or papillary masses ranging in size from 1.5 to 4.5 cm. Microscopically, they showed a biphasic pattern with mesenchymal and epithelial components. There was a characteristic stromal condensation below the epithelial surface and around glandular structures. The cytologic atypia of stromal cells was 1+ in three, 2+ in five, and 3+ in four. The mitotic activity ranged from four to 28 (mean 7.0) mitotic figures per 10 high-power fields. One neoplasm contained cartilage and one striated muscle. Myometrial invasion was present in three. Treatment consisted of hysterectomy in nine patients and excisional biopsy in three. Two patients received radiotherapy; one before surgery and the other after hysterectomy. Two were treated with chemotherapy. Follow-up ranged from 9 months to 18.8 years. Nine patients were alive and well with no evidence of recurrent tumor at postoperative intervals of 0.8-18.8 years.
