The variable clinicopathological categories and role of human papillomavirus in cervical adenocarcinoma: A hospital based nation-wide multi-center retrospective study across China. Int J Cancer 2016; 139:2687-2697. [PMID: 27554015 DOI: 10.1002/ijc.30401] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2015] [Revised: 06/05/2016] [Accepted: 07/19/2016] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
We investigated HPV in adenocarcinoma presenting and managed as cervical adenocarcinoma (CADC) at seven major representative regional cancer centres across China. From 1,051 CADC cases diagnosed locally in 2005-2010, 881 had available paraffin embedded tissue. Initial review excluded 154 cases as other diagnoses or inappropriate specimens. In 718 eligible cases consensus panel pathology diagnosis was made using an algorithm incorporating p16 and progesterone receptor immunohistochemistry (IHC). Classification of cervical adenocarcinoma categories was subject to substantial pathological disagreement. High-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPV) DNA was studied by the sensitive SPF10 PCR-DEIA-LiPA25 version 1 for L1 genes and type-specific HR-HPV E6/7 gene PCR's. HR-HPV prevalence in whole tissue samples in eligible tested CADC was 74.5%: 100.0% in neuro-endocrine carcinoma (NEC), 82.2% in classical cervical adenocarcinoma (ADC-CX), 40.0% in adenocarcinoma-not otherwise specified (ADC-NOS) and 33.3% in endometrioid adenocarcinoma (ADC-ENDO). Higher mean age at diagnosis correlated with histological categories showing low HPV prevalence (Linear regression: β= -13.794, p < 0.001). HPV-16 and 18 were associated with early development of CADC and a lower mean age correlated with carcinogenic risk of associated HPV (β = -0.1829, p < 0.001). HPV-16 or HPV-18 was found in 88.2% of all HPV positive cases including multiple-infections. HPV-18 was the commonest HPV type in NEC (58.3%), ASC (40.2%) and ADC-CX (40.9%). The proportion of HPV-unrelated CADC and in different final histological categories varied geographically and by age. Although HPV negativity was predominantly associated with special categories of CADC, some HPV-negative usual adenocarcinomas indistinguishable by adjudicated microscopic diagnosis from ADC-CX were found and varied in frequency across China.

Abstract
It is frequently difficult to distinguish multiple primary carcinomas from single primary carcinoma with metastasis. Here, we report a case of synchronous endometrioid adenocarcinomas that independently occurred in the uterine cervix and corpus. A 47-year-old woman complaining of genital bleeding was preoperatively diagnosed with cervical adenocarcinoma with an endometrial lesion. On surgical treatment, two separate malignant lesions bearing endometrioid adenocarcinoma were identified in the uterine cervix and cavity. Although both lesions expressed the same type of human papillomavirus (HPV) gene, type 16, microscopic continuity was not observed. Furthermore, we detected a critical difference in PTEN mutation between the tumors and finally diagnosed this case as multiple primary cancers. This is the first report to show multiple primary endometrioid adenocarcinomas simultaneously arising in the uterine cervix and corpus. Considering the rarity of this case, the coexistence of HPV suggests its possible involvement in the carcinogenesis of the endometrioid adenocarcinomas.

Abstract
A post hoc analysis of the ATHENA study was performed to determine whether true HPV‐negative cervical lesions occur and whether they have clinical relevance. The ATHENA database was searched for all CIN2 or worse (CIN2+) cases with cobas HPV‐negative results and comparison was made with Linear Array (LA) and Amplicor to detect true false‐negative HPV results. Immunostaining with p16 was performed on these cases to identify false‐positive histology results. H&E slides were re‐reviewed by the study pathologists with knowledge of patient age, HPV test results and p16 immunostaining. Those with positive p16 immunostaining and/or a positive histopathology review underwent whole tissue section HPV PCR by the SPF10/LiPA/RHA system. Among 46,887 eligible women, 497 cases of CIN2+ were detected, 55 of which tested negative by the cobas® HPV Test (32 CIN2, 23 CIN3/ACIS). By LA and/or Amplicor, 32 CIN2+ (20 CIN2, 12 CIN3/ACIS) were HPV positive and categorized as false‐negatives by cobas HPV; nine of 12 false‐negative CIN3/ACIS cases were p16+. There were 23 cases (12 CIN2, 11 CIN3/ACIS) negative by all HPV tests; seven of 11 CIN3/ACIS cases were p16+. H&E slides were available for six cases for re‐review and all were confirmed as CIN3/ACIS. Tissue PCR was performed on the six confirmed CIN3/ACIS cases (and one without confirmation): four were positive for HPV types not considered oncogenic, two were positive for oncogenic genotypes and one was indeterminate. In summary, subanalysis of a large cervical cancer screening study did not identify any true CIN3/ACIS not attributable to HPV. What's new? Human papillomavirus (HPV) testing has a high negative predictive value for detecting histological cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). False‐negative HPV results can occur, however, though their clinical relevance is little understood. Using data from the U.S.‐based ATHENA study, the authors of the present report show that only a very small percentage of CIN grade 3/adenocarcinoma in situ (ACIS) lesions were missed by the cobas HPV Test, which identifies 14 high‐risk HPV types. False‐negatives by cobas testing were compared with Linear Array and Amplicor testing. Most missed CIN3/ACIS cases were associated with HPV types not included in current tests.

Conservative treatment of coexisting microinvasive squamous and adenocarcinoma of the cervix: report of two cases and literature review. Onco Targets Ther 2016; 9:539-44.

Abstract
Coexistence of microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma (MISCC) and microinvasive adenocarcinoma (MIAC) of the cervix is a rare phenomenon with very few clinically significant cases described in the literature. While a conservative approach has been studied, and may be effective in MISCC, a lower number of studies that recommend conservative treatment are available for MIAC. We report two cases of synchronous cervix lesions in two separate foci, MISCC and MIAC, who underwent fertility-sparing treatment with long-term follow-up. We describe clinical, histological, and immunohistochemical features of the two cases. The first case is a 41-year-old female with a diagnosis of MIAC of endocervical type, grade 1 differentiation, with a stromal invasion, associated with a separate area of squamous cell carcinoma (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics/TNM stage: pT1a1G1). The second case is a 45-year-old female with a diagnosis of plurifocal MISCC, associated with an MIAC of endocervical type with a stromal invasion (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics/TNM stage: pT1a1G1). After multidisciplinary counseling, both patients accepted conization as definitive treatment. Eleven years after the conization, all tests (Papanicolaou smear, colposcopy, cervical curettage, and hybrid capture 2-human papillomavirus test) planned quarterly in the first year and every 6 months in the subsequent years were negative in both patients. In women affected by stage IA1 squamous cervical cancer coexisting with stage IA1 adenocarcinoma endocervical type, with clear margins, and without lymphovascular space invasion, cervical conization may be considered a fertility-preserving, safe, and definitive therapeutic option.
