자궁경부의 Glassy cell carcinoma 2예 = Two Cases of Glassy Cell Carcionma of the Cervix, Treated by Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Radical Hysterectomy

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Glassy cell carcinoma is a histologic subtype of cervical cancer with distinct pathologic features and it has an aggressive biologic course.
It was first described by Glucksmann and Cherry in 1956 as a poorly differentiated adenoquamous carcinoma and commented on its poor prognosis, unresponsiveness to traditional modes of therapy, and often associated with pregnancy.
The characteristic histologic features are defined as follows: 1) cells with a moderate amount of cytoplasm resembling ground glass, 2) a fairly distinct cell membrane that stains with eosin or PAS, 3) large nuclei with prominent nucleoli.
We present two cases of glassy cell carcinoma of the cervix successfully treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical hyterectorny, with a brief review of literatures.
