Cytological features of mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma of the uterine corpus.

Irrespective of sampling site and preparation method, the majority of uterine MLA cases showed the following cytological features: tight three-dimensional cellular clusters showing small-to-medium-sized, round, hyperchromatic nuclei with indistinct nucleoli and high nuclear-to-cytoplasm ratio. In case a cytology sample suspicious of a glandular lesion displays these cytological features, which are distinct from those of endocervical adenocarcinoma, uterine MLA should be included in the differential diagnosis.
