子宮頸腺樣基底癌相當少見。我們搜尋本院近七年來的子宮頸癌病理資料庫，發現僅有兩例個案，整理過去英文文獻的個案報告也僅有65例，其發生率小於子宮頸癌的百分之一。此二個案皆為停經後的婦女，因例行性的子宮頸抹片檢查發現子宮頸上皮內贅生瘤而來本院求診，進一步的子宮頸圓錐狀切除或全子宮切除後的病理檢查發現合併有腺樣基底癌存在。回顧過去文獻指出，子宮頸腺樣基底癌通常發生在停經後無症狀的婦女，因子宮頸抹片異常而被發現，這一類的子宮頸癌必須和子宮頸腺樣囊狀癌小心區別，子宮頸腺樣囊狀癌通常易於轉移且預後較差，子宮頸腺樣基底癌則有較好的預後。
Adenoid basal carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a very uncommon neoplasm; in fact, only 65 cases have been reported in the English literature. Previous reports have indicated that this tumor is usually diagnosed during follow-up of abnormal Papanicolaou smear in asymptomatic postmenopausal women; the prognosis is usually favorable. We report two asymptomatic menopausal women who had abnormal cervical smear screening results; adenoid basal carcinoma of the uterine cervix was diagnosed in one of the women after conization of the cervix and in the other woman at follow-up after hysterectomy.
