[Cytologic diagnosis of adenocarcinomas and rare forms of endometrial cancer]

The paper sums up studies on cytomorphologic features of endometrial carcinoma and on possibility of its cytologic diagnosis and verification of histologic forms. 83 cases are analyzed. Cytologic studies have revealed endometrial carcinoma in 70 (84.3 percent) cases. In 63 (75.9 percent) cases the histologic form of the condition was correctly identified, including 19 with differentiated adenocarcinoma, 25 with moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma, 5 of the 7 cases with poorly-differentiated adenocarcinoma, and 4 of the 5 cases with glandular-squamous-cell carcinoma.
