Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix (SCCC).Methods A total of 5 cases of SCCC patients were collected and studied by light microscope and immunohistochemistry from May 2006 to March 2020 in Bao′an District People′s Hospital in Shenzhen City.Results The histology of 5 cases showed that the tumor cells were small and round or sunflower-like,the cytoplasm was sparse,the nucleolus was not easy to be seen,and the tumor cells grew in mosaic-like nests.Immunohistochemistry showed that 5 cases expressed at least 2 kinds of neuroendocrine markers(Syn,CGA and CD56),2 cases diffusely expressed TTF-1,5 cases of CD117 were negative.Conclusion SCCC has unique clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features,and immunohistochemistry plays an important role in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis.SCCC specifically expresses more than one neuroendocrine marker,TTF-1 has no significance in the differential diagnosis of cervical metastasis between primary SCCC and non-small cell carcinoma,CD117 has some significance in the differential diagnosis of both.
