Pseudosarcomatous Fibro Epithelial Stromal Polyp Mimicking Carcinoma Cervix – A Clinical Dilemma
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Abstract: Pseudosarcomatous fibroepithelial stromal polyps are benign lesions exhibiting clinical dilemma with malignancy. The histological spectrum varies from hypo cellular to hyper cellular which can further add to diagnostic dilemma that is why they continue to be under recognized and are often mis interpretated as malignancy. Awareness of the spectrum of histological feature that these lesions exhibit is crucial in their accurate diagnosis thus avoiding unnecessary overtreatment. Immuno histo chemistry is greatly helpful to confirm the diagnosis as these lesions are Estrogen receptor, Progesterone receptor and Desmin positive. Due to the clinical, histological diagnostic problems and rarity of the lesion, we hereby report a case of Pseudosarcomatous fibroepithelial stromal polyp mimicking Carcinoma cervix. Keywords: Pseudosarcomatous fibroepithelial stromal polyps, Carcinoma cervix, Immuno histo chemistry, Estrogen receptor, Progesterone receptor and Desmin.
