Hello,
A poorly differentiated and invasive carcinoma means aggressive cancer that is likely to spread through the lymph to the other parts of the body. This needs an aggressive treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Rakhi Tayal, OBGYN
