Combined Carcinoid Carcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Endometrium: A Case Report and Survey of Related Literature.


ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Histologically, endometrial neuroendocrine carcinoma is an extremely rare pathological type of endometrial cancer. In addition, this type is characterized by high invasiveness and poor clinical outcome, which was classified into carcinoid (low grade), and small-cell and large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (high grade). Globally, reports on endometrial carcinoid carcinoma are limited. Clinically, it is also rare to see primary squamous cell carcinoma of endometrium.
