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.

Resumen

Describimos el caso de una mujer de 46 años que presenta una tumoración en labio mayor izquierdo de vulva en la región de glándula de Bartolino. La exéresis quirúrgica demostró un adenocarcinoma mucosecretor de inmunofenotipo intestinal (CK20+, CDX-2+). El estudio de RMN y TAC toraco-abdominal, así como el estudio colonoscópico descartaron otras lesiones tumorales. El estudio inmunohistoquímico adicional demostró negatividad para GATA-3, mamaglobina y GCDFP-15. El estudio molecular demostró una mutación en el exón 2 de KRAS. Discutimos el diagnóstico diferencial con otros tumores malignos mucinosos y hacemos hincapié en el reconocimiento de esta inusual variante de adenocarcinoma de glándula de Bartolino.
