Abstract
A case of cervical adenocarcinoma arising in diffuse mesonephric hyper plasia is presented. The hyperplastic and neoplastic tubules showed fo cal endocrine cell differentiation. Endocrine cells stained with the G rimelius technique, and were immunoreactive for chromogranin and serot onin. Antisera to additional specific hormones were negative. The natu ral history of this rare tumor is uncertain; the patient presented in this report is free of disease at 10-year follow-up.
