Interpretation of Endocervical Cells With Gastric-Type Mucin on Pap Smears: A Proposal for a Cytologic Category "Atypical Endocervical Cells With Gastric-Type Mucin".
Conclusions: Yellow mucin is a diagnostic clue for endocervical glandular lesions with gastric differentiation. We recommend describing AEC-GAM on cytologic reports to improve cytologic screening for HPV-negative cervical cancers.
