Clear cell adenocarcinoma has been identified in approximately 3-10% of adenocarcinomas of the cervix. Although the cytological findings of clear cell adenocarcinoma of the female genital tract, including the cervix, have been studied relatively well, it remains difficult to diagnose clear cell adenocarcinoma by cytological examination. Recently we encountered a case of clear cell adenocarcinoma of the cervix. In this patient, cervical scraping cytology suggested clear cell adenocarcinoma of the cervix before surgery, based on the presence of a characteristic clustering of cells in a sheet-like arrangement accompanied by 'hobnail cells'.
