抄録

A case of uterine leiomyosarcoma which was difficult todiagnose cytologically because of the presence of epithelioidclusters is reported.Three different cellular componentsincluding scattered spindle-shaped and giant cells, and epithelioidclusters, first suggested Miillerian mixed tumor.Immunocytochemistrystudies, however, were positive for desmin, vimentin and smooth muscle actin, but negative for CEA, EMA, SC and myoglobin, indicating the same origin as smooth muscle.Retrospective examination of Papanicolaou -stained specimens revealed common findings of finely granulated chromatin and thin nuclear borders in these cells. It is concluded that detailed analysis of nuclear borders and chromatin patterns is mandatory to clarify the origin of the cells, especially in the case of stump specimens of uterine leiomyosarcoma.
