Case 1 • Age 54 • Heavy discharge • 2 previous inadequate smears • 1. Inadequate smear. No endocervical cells or squamous metaplasia. • 2.Thick smear, clumps of endometrial like cells – probably related to HRT. Advise repeat mid-cycle
Screener’s opinions ? degenerate endometrial cells ? ovarian Cytology report issued A poor specimen consisting mainly of superficial squamous cells. There are a few groups of degenerate endometrial like cells present not consistent with date in cycle. A gynaecological referral is advised to exclude any endometrial pathology. Case 1
Case 1 outcome • Referred to another hospital • Repeat smear – negative • 3 months later • TAH & BSO • Malignant neoplasm of the ovary • moderately differentiated serous papillary cystadenocarcinoma
Case2 • Age 50 • Erosion • 2 slides ; 3 months apart
Case 2 outcome • Cytology report • Single and groups of malignant cells consistent with adenocarcinoma • Histology • Well differentiated early invasive papillary endocervical adenocarcinoma
Case 3 • Age 54
Case 3 outcome • Cytology report Malignant cells present – undifferentiated carcinoma. • Histology report of vaginal biopsy • Cellular tissue, glands and papillae from a metastatic ovarian carcinoma • Previous cystadenocarcinoma of ovary one year previously
Case 4 • Age 72 • Tumour in vagina • Discharge
Case 4 outcome • Additional information • Known Ca bladder • Cytology report • Malignant cells present, the morphology is consistent with a bladder primary. • Direct tumour spread from bladder to vagina
Case 5 • Age 43 • POP • No periods • History of fibroids • Contact bleed • Ectropion
Case 5 outcome • Cytology report • Endocervical dyskaryosis present consistent with CGIN. • Histology • High grade CGIN, few strips of squamous epithelium with CIN1 and HPV changes. • Invasion cannot be assessed as much of the dysplastic epithelium is without stromal tissue.
Case 6 • Age 40 • No LMP given • Previous unsuitable smear • Ectropion
Case 6 outcome • Screener comments • Vacuolated glandular groups ?endometrials • No LMP given ?significant. • Checker comments • Found on computer records that products of conception were received in histology, and this smear was taken 14 days later! • ? Are these 3D vacuolated groups due to the above. • See Pg 669 - Diagnostic Pathology - Gray &McKee • Cytology report • Unsuitable for a reliable assessment. • Numerous endometrial glandular cell groups present together with an inflammatory exudate. • Advise repeat smear
Case 7 • Age 51 • Polyp in Os
Case 7 outcome • Cytology report • Vacuolated malignant glandular cells present suggestive of metastasis from large intestinal carcinoma. • Histology • Caecal biopsy : moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma • 2/12 later • Cervical biopsy: lakes of mucin with 2 atypical glands, highly suspicious of mucinous adenocarcinoma
Case 8 • Age 35 • TAH for CIN3 15 months previously • Ovaries left in situ • Vaginal smear
Case 8 outcome • Cytology report • Numerous severely dyskaryotic squamous cells and small bizarre forms of keratinized squamous cells present. • Pattern is suspicious of invasion • Histology • (R) fornix bx – VAIN 3, evidence of invasion which has reached the margin • Vaginal wall bx – focal VAIN 3, no invasion. • Capillary proliferation and inflammation in the wall.
