Popis: The present report on primary vaginal carcinoma in situ (CIS) is to be here presented with special reference to cytological examination because of its rarity.The patient is 42 years old. The lesion was occupying one third of posterior vaginal wall as its center, of which histology was confirmed to be ovoidshaped CIS after operation.In this case, presence of carcinoma was estimated on scraping smear method of portio, though no abnorma rity was in evidence both on the portio and in the cervix by punch biopsy.Subsequent thorough colposcopic examination revealed mosaic pattern on the posterior vaginal wall. Histolo gical investigation also showed that its existence had nothing to do with the portio itself.Cytological appearance revealed trend differentiation to some degree. In particular, because of abundance in intermediate dyskaryotic cells and morphological alter nations of parabasal cells, it was quite similar to that of coexisting CIS in cervix and dysplasia high degree.
