Abstract:
We report a case of a mixed tumor arising in the vagina of a 64-year old woman. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of stromal-type spindle cells and nests of mature squamous cells embedded in myxomatous stroma. We examined the tumor immunohistochemically, ultrastructurally, and cytogenetically. Based on the results, we discuss the histogenesis of this rare tumor.
