RESUMEN
El carcinoma papilar de células escamotransicionales del cuello uterino, es una variante rara del carcinoma escamoso, que se caracteriza por presentar un patrón arquitectural papilar, por ser profundamente invasivo y por su tendencia a recidivar y metastatizar tardíamente. Se presenta una serie de 16 casos y se analizan los hallazgos clínicos, macroscópicos, histopatológicos, citológicos e inmuno-histoquímicos. Se revisa la literatura, discutiendo la posible génesis de este proceso neoplásico.
