چکیده

Pseudosarcomatous fibroepithelial stromal polyps are benign lesions exhibiting clinical dilemma with malignancy. The histological spectrum varies from hypo cellular to hyper cellular which can further add to diagnostic dilemma that is why they continue to be under recognized and are often mis interpretated as malignancy. Awareness of the spectrum of histological feature that these lesions exhibit is crucial in their accurate diagnosis thus avoiding unnecessary overtreatment. Immuno histo chemistry is greatly helpful to confirm the diagnosis as these lesions are Estrogen receptor, Progesterone receptor and Desmin positive. Due to the clinical, histological diagnostic problems and rarity of the lesion, we hereby report a case of Pseudosarcomatous fibroepithelial stromal polyp mimicking Carcinoma cervix.

Cellular Pseudosarcomatous Fibroepithelial Stromal Polyp of the Cervix: A Lesion Mimicking as Sarcoma

The fibroepithelial stromal polyp (FESP) are infrequent mesenchymal lesions of distal female genital tract found in vulvovaginal region but infrequently may also occur in the cervix [1-3]. These arise from subepithelial myxoid stroma and represent a reactive process rather than neoplastic one [3]. Many cases are seen associated with pregnancy, suggesting its association with hormones. Because o...

Fibroepithelial stromal polyp (FSP) is a benign lesion that can occur at various sites, including the lower female genital tract. In rare cases, however, it may exhibit hypercellularity, bizarre cytomorphological features, and atypical mitoses resulting in an overdiagnosis as a malignant tumor despite its benign clinical course. Recently, we experienced one case of a 30-year-old pregnant woman ...
