Fig. 1

An endometrial Pap smear strongly indicated adenocarcinoma (at 20 × magnification, scale bar: 100 μm) (A). Positron emission tomography/computed tomography detected the abnormal accumulation of 2-deoxy-2-(18F)fluoro-d-glucose in the uterine corpus (SUVmax = 16.9) and para-aortic lymph nodes (SUVmax = 4.1) (B). The histopathological finding of endometrial carcinoma was compatible with grade 1 adenocarcinoma of the uterus (at 20 × magnification, scale bar: 100 μm) (C) and metastasis to the para-aortic lymph nodes (at 4 × magnification, scale bar: 500 μm) (D)
