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.These cells make mucus. They grow in the opening of your cervix and inside your uterus. If they appear to be abnormal, your doctor will order more tests, including a colposcopy, to find out for sure if it’s cancer. ...
There are four types of abnormal Pap smear results: Atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS):These results indicate there are slightly abnormal squamous cells—thin, flat cells that grow on the surface of the cervix. Changes in these cells do not clearly suggest precancerous ce...
ASC-H(atypical squamous cells cannot exclude a high-gradesquamous intraepithelial lesion): The cells do not appear normal, but doctors are uncertain what the cell changes mean. ASC-H may be at higher risk of being pre-cancerous. AGC (atypical glandular cells):Glandular cells are mucus-producin...

OBJECTIVE: We determine the rate of an atypical glandular cells (AGC) on cervical cytology and the incidence of clinical significant lesion on subsequent follow up biopsies. In this study, we attempted to assess the clinical significance of a cytologic diagnosis of atypical glandular cells (AGC)....
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...

• AGC: Atypical glandular cells • CIN II, CIN III (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia) • AIS: Endocervical adenocarcinoma in situ • Squamous cell carcinoma • Adenocarcinoma There is controversy about what level of abnormality requires further tests or treatment, and how often women need...
Atypical glandular cells (AGC) refers to changes to the cervix that do not occur in the squamous epithelium. Instead, abnormal glandular cells were seen in the sample. This result suggests there may be cancer in the upper parts of the cervix or the uterus.2 ...
