A case of cervical adenoacanthoma which was cytodiagnostically interesting is reported. The cervico-vaginal smear showed adenocarcinoma cells, squamous metaplastic cells and hyalinized masses of keratin material (keratin bodies). The existence of adenocarcinoma cells and squamous metaplastic cells enabled us to correctly predict adenoacanthoma. On the other hand, the keratin bodies on the cytology smear were thought to be correlated to those of the tissue section.
