Abstract
An asymptomatic 24-year-old woman underwent a colposcopy, cervical biopsy, and subsequently, a conization for a cervical squamous cell carcinoma in situ with glandular extension. Simultaneously, an endometrial biopsy was carried out in which, incidentally, a placental site nodule was diagnosed, a rare non-neoplastic lesion originating in the intermediate trophoblast. Given the coexistence of these two entities, it was necessary to make a differential diagnosis between them and also with other pathologies of the trophoblast such as an exaggerated placental site, placental site trophoblastic tumor, and epithelioid trophoblastic tumor.
