Overview

On microscopic histopathological analysis, mucinous differentiation, nuclear atypia, and necrosis are characteristic findings of mucinous adenocarcinoma.

Key Biopsy Findings in Mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma

Microscopic Pathology

  • Features:
  • Mucinous differentiation
  • Tall columnar cells in glands with apical mucin
  • May have an endocervical-like or intestinal-like appearance
  • Invasive morphology
  • Back-to-back glands/confluent growth pattern
  • Desmoplastic stromal response
  • Cribriforming of glands
  • Infiltration the tumor capsule
  • Malignant characteristics:
