Teratomas of the uterine cervix are rare. Immature and malignant uterine cervical teratomas are extremely rare. A uterine cervical teratoma with divergent neuroepithelial differentiation and/or development of a neurological tumor has never been reported. We describe a case of uterine cervical teratoma exhibiting ectodermal, endodermal, mesodermal, and various types of neuroepithelial differentiation and development of a small oligodendroglioma in a 38-year-old female. The presence of immature neuroepithelium defines this teratoma as immature, and the development of a low-grade malignant neoplasm from one of its components makes it malignant. The pertinent literature is reviewed.
子宫颈畸胎瘤很罕见。未成熟型和恶性子宫颈畸胎瘤极为罕见。具有分化的神经上皮和/或神经肿瘤形成的子宫颈畸胎瘤从未有过报道。我们描述了一例38岁女性子宫颈畸胎瘤病例，该病例表现出外胚层、内胚层、中胚层以及各种类型的神经上皮分化，并形成了一个小的少突胶质细胞瘤。未成熟神经上皮的存在将此畸胎瘤定义为未成熟型，且其一个成分发展为低度恶性肿瘤使其具有恶性特征。并对相关文献进行了综述。
