Aluminum silicate-containing psammoma bodies in a cervicovaginal smear (Pap): cytological, ultrastructural, and radiographic microprobe studies.

Abstract

Psammoma body is a rare finding in a cervicovaginal smear and can be associated with either benign or malignant diseases. Here we report a case to illustrate the association of psammoma bodies with benign granulomatous reactions to a foreign material (aluminum silicate).
