AB  - To correlate the cytopathological and the histopathological findings in uterine 
      mixed mesodermal malignant tumor (MMMT) we have examined the cervical smear, 
      endometrial curettage and hysterectomy specimen of a patient diagnosed with 
      uterine tumor. The smear was stained by Papanicolaou staining and the tissue 
      processed by routine technique and stained H&E. The original cytological 
      diagnosis was adenosquamous carcinoma. The histopathological diagnosis was MMMT 
      of heterologous type. A review of the smear revealed features which may orientate 
      the diagnosis: multinucleate cells, isolated cells with cyanophilic cytoplasm, 
      hyperchromatic nuclei and prominent nucleoli, elongated cyanophilic cells of 
      sarcomatous origin. We conclude that the cytopathological diagnosis of the MMMT 
      in cervical smears is very difficult. This may be sustained by the evidence of 
      more cell types and cellular features orientating to a sarcomatous origin. The 
      most important differential diagnosis is adenosquamous carcinoma.
