A Case of McCune-Albright Syndrome with Vitamin D Resistant Rickets

Abstract

We present the cytologic features of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the liver metastasized from the uterine cervix. Cytologically, tumor cells were arranged in a pat- tern of solid sheet in necrotic background. The tumor cells were characterized by uniform, small cells, round hyperchromatic nuclei, and high nuclear cytoplasmic ratio. The smears showed frequent mitotic figures and rosette formation, These findings were identified with the previous histologic sections of uterine cervix. To make a diagnosis of metastatic small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma on the Papanicolaou smear, a high index of suspicion and careful review of clinical history are needed
