Abstract

Adenocarcinoma in situ of cervix is less frequently detected, especially when not associated with squamous intraepithelial premalignant lesion. The relative incidence of in-situ or invasive adenocarcinoma is likely to rise with propensity for younger population. Incidence of recurrence is also higher when histopathology is adenocarcinoma in comparison to the squamous histopathology, This necessitates establishment of different risk factors that would guide the modality of treatment to be taken up in adenocarcinoma histopathology.(Yuksel) Diagnosis of glandular lesions on colposcopy is difficult owing to distinct and less common features, difficulty to approach and fewer cases therefore lesser experience with colposcopy plus the coincidence of squamous lesions along with glandular lesions being more common, adds to the conundrum. In the current image-based case study, colposcopy features of glandular abnormalities in adenocarcinoma of cervix have been described.
