AIMS: To describe six cases seen in consultation in which artefactual vascular involvement within the ovary by benign granulosa cells caused diagnostic confusion. METHODS/RESULTS: In five cases, the initial favoured diagnoses of the submit…

AIMS: In the female genital tract CD10 has been used to assist in the evaluation of mesenchymal tumours of the uterus and in determining whether endometrial stroma is present. CD10 positivity has also been shown in cervical mesonephric remn…

Endometriosis of the intestinal tract may mimic a number of diseases both clinically and pathologically. The authors evaluated 44 cases of intestinal endometriosis in which endometriosis was the primary pathologic diagnosis, and evaluated t…

Endometrial stromal tumors are reviewed with emphasis on their wide morphologic spectrum and problems in differential diagnosis, highlighting issues that have received particular attention in the recent literature. These neoplasms are divid…

The clinicopathologic features of neoplasms arising in gastrointestinal endometriosis have not been well characterized. In this series, we report 17 cases of gastrointestinal endometriosis complicated by neoplasms (14 cases) or precancerous…

We report 30 uterine tumors composed of an admixture of endometrioid glands, endometrioid stroma, and smooth muscle that lacked the characteristic features of atypical polypoid adenomyoma. The patients ranged from 26 to 64 (median 47) years…

Four cases of endosalpingiosis presenting as masses that resembled neoplasms are described in women 20, 41, 43, and 74 years of age. Each case was referred in consultation because of difficulties in pathologic diagnosis. In two patients, mu…

Twenty cases of superficial endometriosis of the uterine cervix that occurred in patients from 20 to 51 (mean 37.1) years of age are described. The majority of the cases were seen in consultation and were usually referred because of diagnos…

OBJECTIVES: Intestinal metaplasia often coexists with adenocarcinoma of the urinary bladder, suggesting to some investigators that it is premalignant. However, the natural history and long-term outcome of intestinal metaplasia in isolation …

Selected tumor-like lesions of the urinary bladder and urethra, particularly those that have been the subject of recent attention in the literature, are reviewed. Within the category of epithelial abnormalities, it has recently been appreci…

Nineteen clear cell adenocarcinomas of the urethra, 18 from women and one from a man, are described. The patients ranged from 35 to 80 years of age (average, 58 yrs). The clinical presentation and gross findings were similar to those of ure…

Three women, 37, 44, and 46 years of age, had masses up to 4 cm in maximal size, which involved the posterior wall of the urinary bladder, treated by transurethral resection. Microscopic examination showed prominent involvement of the lamin…

A total of 37 cases of ovarian primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)-19 associated with a dermoid cyst (SCCD), seven associated with endometriosis (SCCE), and 11 pure (SCCP)-are described. The last 18 cases belong within the new World Healt…

Twenty-five cases of tubal or tubo-endometrioid metaplasia that occurred in patients from 21 to 51 years of age (mean 39 years) are described. The majority of the cases were seen in consultation. They were referred because of diagnostic pro…

After a diagnosis of endocervical adenocarcinoma was made on examination of a curettage specimen, a 46-year-old woman underwent laparotomy for the purpose of radical hysterectomy. After frozen section of a biopsy specimen obtained from a no…

A 35-yr-old woman with a history of endometriosis and several recent episodes of hematuria was found to have an exophytic tumor arising from the mucosa of the posterior bladder wall. Microscopic examination showed a typical clear cell adeno…

Five ovarian tumors were associated with florid mesothelial hyperplasia that in four cases created initial problems in histologic classification and staging of the tumors. In two cases, small nests, cords, and gland-like arrangements of aty…

We describe five cervical adenocarcinomas with unusual, deceptively benign histological features that occurred in women 34 to 42 years of age and caused problems in interpretation. The tumors were incidental findings in hysterectomy or cone…

Six tumor-like glandular lesions characterized by a prominent component of endocervical-type epithelium involved the wall of the urinary bladder in women of reproductive age (31 to 44 years; mean, 37). All of the lesions posed problems in h…

Six adenocarcinomas of the fallopian tube that resembled the female adnexal tumor of probable wolffian origin are described. The tumors, which occurred in patients from 38 to 66 (average 55) years of age, typically formed intraluminal masse…

Diverse nonneoplastic glandular lesions of the uterine cervix may occasionally be misinterpreted as premalignant or malignant. These processes include papillary endocervicitis, tunnel clusters, deep glands and deep nabothian cysts, microgla…

Six cases of endometriosis of the uterine cervix characterized by the exclusive or almost exclusive presence of endometriotic stroma are reported. These cases of "stromal endometriosis" were encountered in women 29 to 64 (mean, 43) years of…

Three cases of Liesegang rings (LRs) within the female genital tract are reported; only one similar case has been previously documented. The patients were 32-57 years of age and underwent operations for ovarian endometriosis (two cases) and…
