Abstract

Adenoma malignum is a well differentiated form of adenocarcinoma. Despite of benign histologic appearance, this tumor has malignant clinical course. Because of its rarity and subtle histologic changes, it may be missed. Therefore it has poor prognosis. Early diagnosis and early treatment is required by thorough examination. We report one case of adenoma malignum of uterine cervix with a brief review of the literature.
