Cervical Carcinoma with Adnexa

This TAH-BSO specimen is demonstrated in standard anatomic postion, with the right adnexa on the left side of the image. The right ovary is replaced by a Brenner tumor, the left ovary by a mucinous cystadenoma. The cervical tumor is a non-keratinizing squamous carcinoma.

 

This case presented de novo in the middle of the night with profuse, bright red, "arterial-type" bleeding, which necessitated an emergency hysterectomy. Therefore, this is a rare "virgin" case of invasive cervical cancer, with no preoperative irradiation.
