Papillary immature metaplasia of the cervix, cytologic and histologic findings

Öz

Some immature squamous lesions of the cervix (papillary and nonpapillary atypical immature squamous proliferations) have been described recently. Papillary immature metaplasia have been well defined. It's characterized by a metaplastic growth pattern of variable maturation,the presence of papillary architecture ranging from small papilla to slender projections, lining cells exhibiting variable cytologic atypia . Our two patients diagnosed as papillary immature metaplasia have been discussed with literature findings. We compared expression of Ki- 67 between papillary immature metaplasia, low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, squamous metaplasia and mature squamous epithelium.

Serviksin papiller immatür metaplazisinin sitolojik ve histolojik bulguları, 2 olgu sunumu

Serviksin papiller ve nonpapiller atipik İmmatür metaplastik proliferasyonları son zamanlarda tanımlanmıştır. Papiller İmmatür metaplazinin kriterleri net olarak tanımlanmış olup, değişik matürasyon aşamasında skuamöz metaplastik epitel, küçük veya filiform papiller yapılar ve sitolojik atipi ile karekterizedir. Birinin smearı pozitif olmak üzere, histopatolojik incelemede papiller İmmatür metaplazi tanısı almış iki olguyu literatür bulguları eşliğinde tartıştık ve papiller immature metaplazi, "low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion", "high grade squamous intraepitheliallesion", skuamöz metaplazi ve matür skuamöz epitelin Ki- 67 ile boyanma özelliklerini karşılaştırdık.
