- INVASIVE SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA, MODERATELY DIFFERENTIATED, FRAGMENTED. | |||
- PLEASE SEE TUMOUR SUMMARY. | |||
TUMOUR SUMMARY - UTERINE CERVIX | |||
Specimen: Cervix. | |||
Procedure: Biopsy. | |||
Tumour Site: Cannot be determined. | |||
Tumour Size: Cannot be determined - see comment. | |||
Histologic Type: Squamous cell carcinoma, keratinizing. | |||
Histologic Grade: G2: Moderately differentiated. | |||
Stromal Invasion: Extent cannot be assessed - see comment. | |||
Lymph-Vascular Invasion: Not identified. | |||
Comment: | |||
The tissue submitted is essentially all tumour. The largest fragment measures 1.2 x 1.4 cm | |||
in the plane of section. Fragmentation and lack of normal histology preclude orientation. | |||
As both the in plane dimensions exceed 0.7 cm, this is at least a pT1b. | |||
