Stratified mucin producing intraepithelial lesion of uterine cervix is an infrequently discerned, premalignant, intraepithelial lesion associated with infection with human papilloma virus (HPV). Lesion commonly arises from reserve cells permeating transformation zone of uterine cervix. Aforesaid reserve cells may undergo carcinogenesis and trans-differentiation.
