Fig. 11From: Radiology–pathology correlation of endometrial carcinoma assessment on magnetic resonance imagingStage II endometrial carcinoma with cervical stroma involvement. On sagittal (a) and axial (b) T2W MR imaging, there is intermediate T2 signal tumour (arrows) replacing the low signal dense cervical stromal tissue. In this case, the tumour involving the cervix is from a drop metastasis from a smaller primary in the endometrial cavity (not shown). Pathology (c) determines cervical invasion based on identification of the haphazardly arranged tumour cells (arrow) invading beyond the confines of cervical mucosa with surrounding stromal reactionBack to article page
