자궁경부 상피내선암

Abstract

Adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) of the cervix is a rare disease. Seventeen patients with this disease seen at the Keimyung University Dongsan Medical Center are reported, with a review of their clinical characteristics and pathologic data. Their median age was 49 years. Cervical cytology showed that all contained abnormal cells. In our series all cases were combined with other cervical epithelial precancerous and cancerous lesion. 6 cases of AIS were combined with invasive adenocarcinoma of the cervix. Cone biopsy margins were examined in 15 patients, and predicted the presence or absence of disease in twelve of 14 hysterectomy specimens. But their prediction was low accuracy.
