Objectives

Endometrial large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is extremely rare. We report a case of combined large　cell　 neuroendocrine and endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the endometrium.

Papanicolaou smear of the cervix: AGC

Endometrial smear: endometrial adenocarcinoma Grade1-2.Endometrial biopsy: endometrial adenocarcinoma Grade1.

Serum tumor markers:

Preoperative diagnosis: Endometrioid adenocarcinoma, FIGO stage1b (T1bN0M0).

Performed operation: Modified radical hysterectomy

bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy pelvic lymphadenectomy

Postoperative diagnosis: combined large 　 cell 　 neuroendocrine 　 carcinoma and endometrioid adenocarcinoma FIGO stage 1b (T1bN0M0).

Conclusions

References

Endomerial LCNEC is extremely rare. However, when we obtained the result of endometrioid adenocarcinoma by endometrial biopsy, we need to keep in mind that it may contain a small part of another histological cancer including LCNEC.

Case

A 61-year-old woman (para4, gravida4) visited our hospital for post-menopausal bleeding. 　

Transvaginal sonography showed endometrial thichening.

Results

Grossly, a polypoid tumor (3.5×2.5×2.1cm3) was found in the uterine corpus.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a mass (3.0×2.5×2.1cm3) in the endometrium and 　myometrial invasion 　 was suspected in the upper half part of the uterus. Bilateral adnexae were normal.

Computed tomography (CT) examination showed no lymphadenopathy.

Although we recommended her the postoperative chemotherapy, she denied further treatment. No evidence of recurrence was observed for one year after surgery.

Endometrioid adenocarcinoma,

Microscopic examination 　 revealed that 　 the tumor infiltrated more than half of the myometrium. Most of the tumor was characterized by endometrioid adenocarcinoma Grade1, however, there was a small portion consisting of solid tumor with necrotic tendency. It was composed of malignant large-sized cells with hyperchromatic nuclei. Immunohistologically, it was positive for synaptophysin and NSE.

Large cell neuroendocrine

carcinoma

Both ovaries and fallopian tubes were unremarkable, and total of 27 lymph nodes dissected by operation were all negative for cancer.

CEA 　 3.0IU/mlCA19-9 30.3IU/ml CA125 　 19.9IU/ml

Immunohistochemical examination:Positive for synaptophysin.
