Abstract

Adenoma malignum (minimal deviation adenocarcinoma) is a rare, well-differentiated form of cervical adenocarcinoma. This name is derived from the benign epithelial cell lining the glands. Despite its benign appearance, adenoma malignum have clinical malignant features. Because of its rarity and subtle histologic changes, it is quite difficult to diagnosis and may be missed. Adenoma malignum may carry a poor prognosis. We presented two cases of adenoma malignum of the uterine cervix with a brief review of related literatures.
