Abstract
Uterine collision tumor is a rare pathologic type composed of two or more malignant tumors, with cervical collision tumors being even rarer. The mechanism of occurrence of collision tumors is not clear. We hope to help clinicians and pathologists understand and diagnose this condition. We report a case of a 53-year-old female diagnosed with poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix through biopsy. After reviewing previous reports on collision tumors in different locations and theiry types in the cervix and uterus, we found that collisions between cervical squamous cell carcinoma and low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma were rare. Identifying this type of collision tumor may help with future diagnosis and treatment.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology (IJCEP, ISSN 1936-2625) is a peer reviewed, open access online journal. It was founded in 2008 by an international group of academic pathologists and scientists who are devoted to the scientific exploration of human disease and the rapid dissemination of original data. Unlike most other open access online journals, IJCEP will keep all the traditional features of paper print that we are all familiar with, such as continuous volume and issue numbers, as well as continuous page numbers to keep our warm feelings towards an academic journal.
