Cervical carcinoma with rhabdoid phenotype: Report of two cases

This report documents two cases of cervical carcinomas having a prominent rhabdoid cell component. In one instance, rhabdoid cells were present as a component of endocervical adenocarcinoma, whereas in the other case, an undifferentiated cervical carcinoma developed a prominent rhabdoid phenotype on recurrence. Like tumors containing rhabdoid elements which have been described at other sites, these neoplasms behaved in an aggressive manner.
