Uterine adenocarcinoma. Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) of adenocarcinoma cancer in the endometrium of the human uterus. The endometrium is the uterine lining. Here its surface epithelial cells are seen (yellow). A cavity (upper centre) forms the opening to a uterine gland. Adeno- carcinoma cells appear large (brown),invading the uterus surface and its glands. Endometrial adenocarcinoma is the most common cancer of the uterus,which usually occurs in post-menopausal women. Tumour cells can spread rapidly. Treatment may include surgery and use of anticancer drugs. Magnification: x710 at 6x7cm size. x915 at 4x5ins | |
