Serous Papillary Adenocarcinoma of Unknown Primary in a Recurrent Paravaginal Cyst
Cystic lesions located in the paravaginal region are rare. When present, paravaginal cysts are typically benign and are incidentally found on routine gynecological exams; however, rarely they can be malignant. Treatment options for paravaginal cancers are not well studied and early diagnosis may hel...

When present, paravaginal cysts are typically benign and are incidentally found on routine gynecological exams; however, rarely they can be malignant. Treatment options for paravaginal cancers are not well studied and early diagnosis may help improve prognosis in these patients. Our case describes a 55-year-old female with a recurrent paravaginal cyst that was remarkable for serous papillary adenocarcinoma despite biopsy and fluid cytology negative for malignancy. This case demonstrates that malignancy should be considered highly with a recurrent paravaginal cyst, especially when present over a short interval. | ||
