Cervical cancer must be differentiated from other diseases that cause abnormal vaginal bleeding, such as [[cervical polyp]], cervical [[leiomyoma]], invasion of the cervix from primary uterine malignancy, [[vaginal cancer]], cervical lymphoma, metastases to cervix, and cervical [[ectopic pregnancy]].

Overview

Cervical cancer must be differentiated from other diseases that cause abnormal vaginal bleeding, such as cervical polyp, cervical leiomyoma, invasion of the cervix from primary uterine malignancy, vaginal cancer, cervical lymphoma, metastases to cervix, and cervical ectopic pregnancy.

Cervical cancer differential diagnosis

  • Cervical cancer must be differentiated from a mass involving the cervix, and causing abnormal vaginal bleeding:[1][2][3]
Abnormal Uterine bleeidng differential diagnosis
Ob-Gyn neoplasm and diseases Clinical manifestations Para-clinical findings Gold standard
Symptoms Physical exam Lab Findings Imaging Histopathology
Abnormal

vaginal bleeding

Other Genitourinary/ Gastrointestinal symptoms Abdominal pain Pelvic

pain

B symptoms Gynecological examinations Abdominal
