Cervical cytology is mainly used for the screening and detection of early cervical cancers and its precursors. Rarely, detection of malignant cells in cervical cytology specimens is the first manifestation of an extrauterine (EU) malignancy. We report a case of a 49-year-old female in which adenocarcinoma initially diagnosed on routine, liquid-based cervical cytology led to the detection of a primary lung cancer.
宫颈细胞学主要用于早期宫颈癌及其癌前病变的筛查和检测。宫颈细胞学标本中恶性细胞的检测极少会成为子宫外(EU)恶性肿瘤的首发表现。我们报告一例49岁女性病例,其最初在常规液基宫颈细胞学检查中被诊断为腺癌,随后发现了原发性肺癌。
