Histopathologic examination of the neoplasm showed epithelial islands floating in mucoid material compartmentalized by fibrous septa. Cytokeratin 7, protein S100, estrogen and progesterone receptors we...

Primary villoglandular mucinous adenocarcinoma of the vulva is rare tumor. We report a case of 68-year-old woman who developed this very uncommon malignant tumor. Immunohistochemical examination of this tumor revealed positive staining for Cytokeratin 20, Mucin 2, and CDX2, although Cytokeratin 7 and Mucin 6 were negative. This positive staining indicated the tumor enteric type characters. In o...
