ABSTRACT
We report the case of a 46-year-old woman who presented with a tumor on the left labium majus in the region of the Bartholin gland. Surgical excision revealed a mucinous adenocarcinoma of intestinal-type (CK20+, CDX-2+). Magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography of the chest and abdomen and colonoscopy ruled out the presence of other tumors. A second immunohistochemical study showed negative results for GATA-3, mammaglobin and GCDFP-15. Molecular analysis revealed a mutation in exon 2 of the KRAS gene. We discuss its differential diagnosis and the importance of being aware of this unusual variant of a mucinous adenocarcinoma the Bartholin gland.
