Abstract

Lymphangiomas are rare benign proliferations of the lymphatic system. Three types aregenerally acknowledged: circumscriptum (or capillary), cavernous, and cystic. We present acase of cavernous lymphangioma of the cervix in a 54-years-old female. A 54-years-old womanpresented to the department of obstetrics and gynecology. For uterine myoma, she underwenttotal abdominal histerectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Operation material was sentto pathology department. Macroscopic evaluation revealed, cut surface of cervix was blackishand had many cavities. Microscopic examination showed cavernous lymphangioma; composedof cavernous lymphatic spaces which contain lymphatic fluid. Immunhistochemically, factor VIII,CD34, SMA, D2-40 were positive in lymphatic endothelium. Cavernous lymphangioma is a rarelesion in the cervix of females. To our knowledge, this is one of the few cases documented inliterature. As our case, vascular lesions of cervix or another site of female genital tract can bedetected coincidentally at histerectomy materials.

Özet

Lenfanjiyomlar lenfatik sistemin nadir görülen benign proliferasyonlarıdır. Genel olarak üç tip kabul edilmiştir: sirkumskriptum (ya da kapiller), kavernöz ve kistik. Biz 54 yaşındaki kadında servikste kavernöz lenfanjioma olgusunu sunuyoruz. 54 yaşındaki kadın kadın hastalıkları ve doğum kliniğine başvurdu. Uterine myoma nedeniyle, total abdominal histerektomi ve bilateral salpingo- ooferektomi uygulandı. Ameliyat materyali patoloji bölümüne gönderildi. Makroskopik değerlendirmede, serviks kesit yüzeyinde çok sayıda siyahımsı renkte kavitasyonlar ortaya çıktı. Mikroskobik incelemede, lenfatik sıvı içeren kavernöz lenfatik alanlardan oluşan kavernöz lenfanjiom gözlendi. İmmünhistokimyasal olarak, faktör VIII, CD34, SMA, D2-40 lenfatik endotelinde pozitifti. Kavernöz lenfanjiyom, kadınlarda servikste görülmesi nadir bir lezyondur. Bizim olgumuzda olduğu gibi, serviks ya da kadın genital sistemde başka bir bölgenin vasküler lezyonları histerektomi materyallerinde tesadüfen tespit edilebilir.
