Atypical glandular cellsCytologyGlandular cell abnormalityAdenocarcinomaPap smearObjective: Glandular cell abnormality (GCA) in Pap smears is uncommon. Detection is important as the possibility of underlying high-grade lesions is greater in this entity than in atypical squamous cells of undetermined ...
Atypical glandular cells (AGCs) result in the Papanicolaou (Pap) smear may be associated with significant genital and nongenital neoplastic processes. To evaluate the underlying histopathology in women who had AGCs on Pap smears. Retrospective cross-sectional study. Clinicopathological data of patients ...
To investigate the clinical significance of atypical glandular cells (AGC) by analyzing the prevalence and histologic outcomes of patients with AGC according to Pap smear. The medical records of 83 patients who were diagnosed AGC on Pap tests at the Pusan National University Hospital outpatient depart...
Evaluation of cervical cytology by Papanicolaou smear has assumed great importance in diagnosis of premalignant lesions of the cervix. One of the entities encountered infrequently on cervical cytology is atypical cells of glandular origin.An observational prospective study was conducted in the Department ...
The TBS 2001 introduced two important subgroups of ASC (atypical squamous cells) and AGC (atypical glandular cells) diagnostic categories. The authors aim was to classify the AGC cytological diagnoses according to the TBS 2001, carry out a follow up and retrospective cyto-histological comparison. ...
The diagnostic utility of these biomarkers was evaluated by the Gynecologic Oncology Group in Japanese women with a cytological diagnosis of atypical glandular cells.Immunostaining was used to detect CA-IX in a conventional Pap smear. Immunoreactivity of CA-IX was interpreted by a panel of ...

(i) the cervix, such as the vaginal wall and tools used during the colposcopic exam; (ii) the cervical os, or the external orifice of the uterus; (iii) the mosaic, or a plurality of non-overlapping images; (iv) punctation; or (v) blood-like, fold-like, and glandular lesion-like...
However, Pap smear examination can be challenging, being based on the observer ability to decode different cytological and architectural features. This study aims to evaluate the malignancy rate of AGC (atypical glandular cells) category, investigating the relationships between cytological and histologica...
In 61,837 cervicovaginal smears, 1596 cases (2.58%) are positive for Pap test. Only 81 cases are categorized as glandular cell abnormalities. Atypical glandular cells is the most common of glandular cell lesion (49 cases, 0.08%), followed by adenocarcinoma (16 cases, 0.03%), adenoca...
