General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

The histopathological findings are suggestive of adenocarcinoma in situ of the cervix of the uterus.

Adenocarcinoma in situ is a pre-cancerous condition that can progress to cervical adenocarcinoma (cancer of the cervix) and invasive adenocarcinoma.

I advise you to consult your gynecologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Is caused by infection with high-risk human papillomavirus and is the recognized precursor of invasive adenocarcinoma of the cervix. Because most AIS lesions are caused by HPV 16/18 infection.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
