case_images: Consequently, a tumour biopsy was performed (Figure 2).
case_images: pathologic examination of the biopsy specimen showed abundant extracellular mucin with clusters of tumour cells floating in mucin lakes

case_images: Histopathological analysis of excised specimen showed an infiltrative malignant epithelial neoplasm composed of atypical glandular structures with nuclear and cytological atypia, and in some foci, the presence of mucin production (Figure 3).
case_images: immunohistochemical staining (x40): A) positive CDX2, B) positive CK20

case_images: Immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis showed diffuse positivity for CDX2 and CK20 and partial positivity for CK7 (Figure 4).

case_images: IHC analysis could not exclude MCA (Figure 5). IHC showed CK20 and CDX2 expression, as in the biopsy specimen, the positivity of CK7 and Beta-catenin, and the focal expression of CA-125 (Figure 6).
