Currently, the knowledge on (i)SMILE is limited to single case reports and series. As a consequence, consensus guidelines regarding the management are lacking. Although there is overlap with both high grade squamous intra-epithelial lesion (HSIL) and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) on immunohistochemical analyses, it is recommended to treat SMILE like AIS and further excision is needed when surgical margins are positive for SMILE on conization. (i)SMILE, should be considered as a rare subtype of adenocarcinoma of the cervix, and should be treated as such. Case Report: We describe a case with a SMILE lesion undergoing a subsequent robotic hysterectomy after conization and two cases with iSMILE: one case with an early FIGO-stage 1B1 iSMILE tumor, undergoing a robotic radical hysterectomy with sentinel procedure, and one case undergoing a robotic-assisted pelvic/para-aortic lymph node staging dissection, confirming a metastatic FIGO-stage 3C2 (for primary chemo-radiotherapy treatment). Conclusion: Here, we report for the first time a few cases of (i)SMILE with different clinical presentations, their management and follow-up. Immunohistochemical characteristics are given for both primary lesions as well as the metastases. ER -
