ABSTRACT
We offer a comprehensive depiction of the cytomorphological characteristics of lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia (LEGH) as observed in SurePath™ liquid-based cytology (LBC), subsequently confirmed on cone biopsy. Lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia (LEGH), a precursor to gastric-type adenocarcinoma (GAE) of the endocervix, is rare and reports of it in cervical cytology are scarce. We provide a thorough description of the cytomorphological features of LEGH observed in SurePath™ liquid-based cytology (LBC), later confirmed by cone biopsy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report documenting cytology of LEGH in LBC of a Pap sample.
