Figure6.19Villoglandularadenocarcinomaofcervix.Slender, elongated villi are lined by well-differentiatedepitheliumwithanexophyticgrowthpattern.Thistumorisassociatedwitha good prognosis, provided there is minimal or no cervical stromal invasion. (top, low power; bottom,highpower)

LocalizationofAdenocarcinoma:CervixversusCorpus
Distinction between primary endometrial and primary endocervical adenocarcinoma maybedifficultinbiopsyandcurettagespecimens,especiallywhennoprecursorlesion ispresent.Whenclinical and histologic evaluationfails to clearly identifyacarcinoma as cervical or endometrial in origin, an immunohistochemical panel that includes several markers, such as estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), vimentin, and
p16, is often useful (20,25,26). Using this particular panel (Table 6.4), glandular proliferationsthatareER-positiveandPR-positive,vimentin-positive,andp16-negativeare almostalwaysendometrialorigin (Fig. 6.22), whereas those that are ER-negative and PR­negative, vimentin-negative, and p16-positive are very likely to be endocervical in origin (Fig. 6.23). Because the distinction between these two sites of origin may be based on whether a strong staining pattern with p16 is focal or diffuse in an individual case, this patternofreactivityismostusefulinwholetissuesections.Inlimitedsamplings,suchasare encounteredinroutinebiopsyandcurettagespecimens,thesepatternsmaybemisleading.In addition,overexpression of p16 can occurina variety of other carcinomasindependentof HPVstatus,includinguterineserouscarcinomas.
MesenchymalTumors
Stromalandsmoothmuscletumorsmayoccurinthecervixwheretheyresembletheirmore common uterine counterparts. Although the vagina is the more common site, embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma may occur in the cervix; in contrast to vaginal rhabdomyosarcoma, whichismorecommoninchildren,cervicalrhabdomyosarcomastendtooccurinyoung
adults. Most are embryonal, but alveolar variants may be seen. Embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas of the cervix may be associated with DICER1 syndrome, a pediatriccancerpredispositionconditioncausinga variety oftumortypes inchildren and young adults, including pleuropulmonary blastoma, cystic nephroma,
rhabdomyosarcoma, multinodular goiter, thyroid carcinoma, ovarian Sertoli–Leydig cell tumor and other neoplastic conditions (27). Several low-grade sarcomas associated with NTRK and COL1A1-PDGFB rearrangements have been described in the cervix. These variablesexpressS100proteinandCD34(28).
MixedEpithelialandMesenchymalTumors
The same mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumors that occur in the uterine corpus may occur in the cervix. They tend to exhibit the same patient demographics as their uterine counterparts,butcervicaladenosarcomasoftenoccuratayoungerage(29).Mostpresent duringthereproductiveyearswithabnormalbleedingandrecurrentpolyps.Dataarelimited, butmostappeartohaveamorefavorableprognosis,possiblybecauseoftheearlydetection oflow-stagediseaseinthemajorityofpatients.Asinuterinecorpustumors,deepinvasion andsarcomatousovergrowthareadverseprognosticindicators.

OtherTumors
A variety of other neoplasmsmayarise in the uterine cervix. Theseincludealveolar soft partsarcoma, rhabdomyoma,andnerve sheath tumors. Alveolar soft part sarcomas of

Vagina

SquamousLesionsoftheVagina
SquamousIntraepithelialLesion
TheCAP-ASCCPLASTProjectrecommendationsforstandardizedterminologyapply across the anogenital tract for HPV-related preneoplastic squamous lesion.
Consequently, preneoplastic lesions of the vagina are termed LSIL or HSIL with the corresponding vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN) terminology in parentheses: LSIL (VAIN1),HSIL(VAIN2),HSIL(VAIN3).LSILandHSILinthevaginahavethesame morphologic features as those in the cervix. LSIL can be mimicked by vaginal papillomatosis, which exhibits papillary architecture, parakeratosis, and cytoplasmic halos.
However, papillomatosis lacks significant acanthosis and nuclear atypia. HSIL can be mimickedbyatrophyandimmaturesquamousmetaplasiabutcanbedistinguishedbyalack ofnuclearatypiainthelattertwoentities.
Figure 6.22 Endometrial adenocarcinoma (upper left). Endometrial adenocarcinoma is typicallyER-positive/PR-positive(upperright),vimentin-positive(lowerright),andp16-negative (lowerleft).
Figure 6.23 Endocervical adenocarcinoma (upper left). In contrast to endometrial adenocarcinoma(seeFig.6.22),endocervicaladenocarcinomaistypicallyER-negative/PR­negative(upperright),vimentin-negative(lowerleft),andp16-positive(lowerright).
SquamousCellCarcinoma
Primarysquamous cell carcinomaof thevaginais uncommon. Vaginalsquamous cell carcinomamorefrequentlyoccurs as a resultof secondary involvement by extension from the cervix or vulva. The morphologic features are the same as for the cervix. In
patientswith vaginal adenosis, immature squamousmetaplasiainvolving areas of adenosis canbemistaken for invasive squamous cell carcinoma,butthe two entities can be readily distinguishedbythelackofcytologicatypiaandthelackofadesmoplasticresponsewiththe benignprocess.
GlandularLesionsoftheVagina
Clear cell adenocarcinoma is the most common malignant glandular lesion in the vagina, followed by endometrioid, mucinous, and mesonephric subtypes. The latter
histologicsubtypesoccurpredominantlyinperimenopausalwomen.
ClearCellAdenocarcinoma
Clearcellcarcinomaofthecervicovaginalregionisstronglylinkedtoinuteroexposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES) and has decreased in incidence with decreased use of this
teratogen.Ittypicallyoccursinassociationwithadenosis.Althoughtheuppervaginaisthe mostcommonsiteofinvolvementinDES-exposedwomen,thecervixisthemostcommonly affected site in non-DES–exposed women. The appearance is the same as the ovarian counterpart(Fig.6.24),andprognosisisdeterminedby tumor size, depth of invasion, and lymphnodeinvolvement.
Adenosis
Thepresenceofectopicglandularepitheliuminthevaginaistermedadenosis.Adenosis
may exhibit mucinous endocervical-like epithelium or tuboendometrioid epithelium. It is often asymptomatic but may be detected by colposcopic examination. Atypical adenosis, whichexhibitsarchitecturalandcytologicatypia,isoftenseeninassociationwithclearcell adenocarcinoma.
FibroepithelialStromalPolyp
Fibroepithelial stromal polyp is a common, typically small, exophytic polypoid lesion occurringinreproductive-agedwomen,mostcommonlyinthevagina,butalsointhevulva andcervix.Almostone-thirdoccurduringpregnancy.Thepolypsoftenoccurintheanterior wallandrangeinsizefrom0.5cmto4cm.Histologically,theyarecharacterizedbysmall spindle cells and enlarged, stellate, multinucleated cells in a myxoid stroma (Fig. 6.25). Mitotic figures can be prominent and may raise suspicion for a malignant process. Fibroepithelialstromalpolypsaredistinguishedfromsarcomabotryoidesbytheabsenceofa cambiumlayer.
Figure 6.24 Clear cell adenocarcinoma of vagina. In this solid pattern of clear cell carcinoma,sheetsofmalignantcellswithclearcytoplasmextensivelyreplacenormaltissue.
SarcomaBotryoides
Embryonalrhabdomyosarcomais themostcommon vaginalsarcoma;it occursalmost
always in infants and children, but rare cases have been reported in young adults and postmenopausal women. The tumors present as polypoid vaginal masses, often protruding through the introitus, that may vary in size from 0.2 cm to 12 cm. Microscopically, the tumor is composed of small, round to oval or spindle-shaped cells surroundedbyanedematous,myxoidstroma(Fig.6.26).Acharacteristicallydense,cellular cambium layer can be seen in the subepithelial zone. Rhabdomyoblasts (strap cells) are presentbutmaybesparseorilldefined.Identificationofrhabdomyoblastscanbefacilitated byimmunostainingformyogeninorMyo-D1.
Widelocal excision and combination chemotherapy is the preferredtreatmentforsarcoma botryoides.StaginginchildrenisbasedontheIntergroupRhabdomyosarcomaStudyGroup classification; adults are staged according to the TNM and FIGO system. Most rhabdomyosarcomasin thevulvovaginalregion areof the embryonaltype, butraretumors areofthealveolartype,whichhasaworseprognosis.
Melanoma
Melanoma is the second most common malignancy to occur in the vagina (after squamouscellcarcinoma).Affectedpatientsaretypicallypostmenopausalandpresentwith
vaginalbleeding.Most,butnotalllesionsarepigmented,nodular,orflat,andmeasure2to3 cminsizeatdiagnosis;ulcerationmaybepresent.Theanteriorwallofthelowerthirdof the vagina is the most common site. The diagnosis may be difficult on small biopsies becauseaninsitucomponentorpagetoidspreadisoftenabsent.Epithelioidcelllesionsmay resemble carcinoma, whereas spindle cell lesions may create confusion with sarcoma. Immunohistochemical stains for melanoma markers are often required to establish a diagnosis.Theprognosisispoor.
PostoperativeSpindleCellNodule
Avarietyofreactiveprocessesmayoccurwithinthevagina,particularlyfollowingsurgical procedures. One such lesion is composed of a cellular, spindle cell proliferation that may simulateaneoplastic process.Thislesionhasbeen designatedas postoperativespindlecell nodule.

Vulva

SquamousCellLesionsoftheVulva
Terminology
Similartothecervix,therearemultipleterminologysystemsinusetodescribepreneoplastic lesionsofthevulva(30)(Table6.5).ThemaindifferenceliesinwhetherVINisgraded.The
2003WorldHealthOrganization(WHO)classificationgradesVINonascaleof1to3, with VIN 3 further subdivided into classic type and simplex type. In contrast, the InternationalSocietyfortheStudyofVulvovaginalDisease(ISSVD)decidedin2004to eliminatethecategoryofVIN1,andtoabolishgradingofVIN.Thisdecisionwasbased
onthelack ofevidencethat condylomas,whichaccountforthemajorityofVIN 1lesions, progresstocarcinoma,andthelackofinterobserverreproducibilityfordiagnosingVIN1or for distinguishing between VIN 2 and VIN 3 (31). The ISSVD retained the distinction betweenclassicVINandsimplex(differentiated)VIN.Giventhevariabilityinterminology, it is best to determine what terminology system the pathologist is using, especially if the diagnosisis“vulvarintraepithelialneoplasia(VIN)”withnofurtherspecification.
