We report a rare case of primary vulval rhabdoid tumor in an adult. The diagnosis was confirmed using the recently emerging INI1/BAF47 immunostain. We also demonstrate the expression of ER and PR hormonal receptors by the tumor cells.

- Several studies have focused on the use of monoclonal antibodies to differentiate between adenocarcinomas of endometrial (EM) and endocervical (EC) origins, but results have varied.
- In the current study, various antibodies were used on paraffin blocks from adenocarcinomas with known origins, scoring immunostaining patterns to understand influences from site of origin and differentiation pathways.
- Ultimately, no single stain or combination was consistently reliable for distinguishing between EM and EC; however, high scores of VIM and estrogen receptor in endometrioid tumors could suggest an endometrial origin with about 95% accuracy.
