Abstract

The frequency of adenosquamous carcinoma of the colon is <0.1% [1-3]. The first case of colorectal adenosquamous carcinoma was reported by Herxheimer in 1907 and was described as a tumor with both adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma components. These tumors have a greater potential to metastasize as compared to conventional adenocarcinoma of the colon. Adenosquamous carcinoma, located in the ascending colon is rare and has a poor prognosis. Thus, early detection of adenosquamous carcinoma is important and treatment of choice is surgical resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. An adenosquamous carcinoma in the lower gastrointestinal tract is a rare malignancy with a frequency of 0.020.06% [4].

升结肠腺鳞癌:见未见者

结肠腺鳞癌的发生率<0.1%[1-3]。1907年，Herxheimer报道了首例结直肠腺鳞癌，并将其描述为一种兼具腺癌和鳞状细胞癌成分的肿瘤。与传统的结肠腺癌相比，这些肿瘤有更大的转移可能性。位于升结肠的腺鳞癌是一种罕见且预后差的疾病。因此，早期发现腺鳞癌是重要的，治疗的选择是手术切除后辅助化疗。下胃肠道腺鳞癌是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤，发病率为0.020.06%[4]。

期刊介绍： Experimental Pathology encompasses the use of multidisciplinary scientific techniques to investigate the pathogenesis and progression of pathologic processes. The International Journal of Experimental Pathology - IJEP - publishes papers which afford new and imaginative insights into the basic mechanisms underlying human disease, including in vitro work, animal models, and clinical research. Aiming to report on work that addresses the common theme of mechanism at a cellular and molecular level, IJEP publishes both original experimental investigations and review articles. Recent themes for review series have covered topics as diverse as "Viruses and Cancer", "Granulomatous Diseases", "Stem cells" and "Cardiovascular Pathology".
