105 cases of uterine cervix adenocarcinoma (11 histological types) have been studied clinicomorphologically and immunohistochemically. Molecular-biological examination (in situ hybridization) for human papilloma viruses (HPV) detected HPV of 16/18 types not only in the coilocytes of the uterine cervix surface epithelium but in adenocarcinoma cells as well. Uterine cervix adenocarcinoma metastasize differently from uterine cervix squamous cell carcinoma.
