Abstract
Mullerian adenosarcoma of the uterine cervix is a rare tumor seen in young women of reproductive age group. It presents as cervical polyps and is a low-grade malignancy with a tendency for local recurrence. Diagnosis can be difficult since it can easily be mistaken for benign polyps, both clinically and pathologically. We present three cases of adenosarcoma of the cervix presenting as cervical polyps and review the clinical and pathological features of these tumors. Adenosarcoma of the cervix should be ruled out especially in women presenting with recurrent cervical polyps. A careful histological examination is mandatory, important prognostic factors being myometrial invasion and sarcomatous overgrowth. Distant metastasis is very rare and therapy can be tailored to suit patient's needs but long term follow-up is essential.
