Precancer diseases of the female sexual organs. Female cancer. N. Bahnij Precancer cervical lesions Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Erythroplakia atypia Leukoplakia atypia Adenomatosis with with Risk factors for cervical dysplasia Human papillomavirus is a common virus that most women will be infected with at some time in their life. smoking multiple sexual partners pregnancy before the age of 20 suffering from conditions that affect the immune system, like HIV Layers of squamosus epithelium of cervix CIN Classification CIN I: Mild dysplasia; abnormal cells can be found in 1/3 of the lining of the cervix CIN II: Moderate dysplasia; abnormal cells can be found in 2/3 of the lining of the cervix CIN III: Severe dysplasia; abnormal cells can be found in more than 2/3 of the lining of the cervix and up to the full thickness of the lining Diagnosis of cervical dysplasia Speculum examination PAP – smear Processing of 3 % acetic acid of a cervix and revealing a white spot Colposcopy Cervical biopsy Endocervical curettage HPV - testing Dysplasia is initially detected through a Pap smear What is the thinnest and the more effected place of the cervix??? The smear should be taken from squamocolumnar junction – transition zone ! Types of PAP smears I – normal II a- inflammatory process II b – mild dysplasia III a - moderate dysplasia III b – severe dysplasia IV – carcinoma in situ V – cancer VI – smear is not informative Frequency of Pap Smears Begin no later than age 21. If patient is sexually active <21. Once initiated, screening should be performed annually After 30, for women who have had 3 consecutive, normal Pap smears, screening frequency may be reduced to every 3 years. Screening may stop after total hysterectomy, >70 if the the patient is at low risk, and has had three consecutive normal Pap smears within the last 10 years. Treatment for cervical dysplasia CIN1 – 70 % spontaneous regression. CIN 2/3 lesions are usually surgically removed by: destruction (ablation) by carbon dioxide laser (photoablation) and cryocautery and removal (resection) by electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), cold knife conization. Cancer of the cervix is the most common female genital cancer in developing countries every year about 500,000 women , acquire the disease and 75% are from frame developing countries. About 300,000 women also die from the disease annually and of these 75% are from developing countries CERVICAL CARCINOMA Risk factors 10 years from CIN III to cancer Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Infection - (16, 18, 31, 33, 35 and 6 more) Family History of Cervical Cancer Age – 35-55 Sexual and Reproductive History Socioeconomic Status Smoking HIV Infection In Utero DES Exposure Oral contraceptives From initial infection to CIN III – 6 years Types Squamous cell Carcinomas Cancer of flat epithelial cell 80% to 90% Adenocarcinomas Cancer from glandular epithelium 10% - 20% Mixed carcinoma Features both types Stages of Cervical Carcinoma What are the symptoms of cervical cancer? Abnormal bleeding Unusual vaginal discharge Other symptoms Between periods With intercourse After menopause Leg pain Pelvic pain Bleeding from the rectum or bladder Some women have no symptoms Diagnosis Complaints Speculum examination. The cytological examination HPV screening involves a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Bimanual vaginal examination Rectovaginal examination Application of acetic acid and Colposcopy Biopsy. What should I do if I have just been diagnosed with cervical cancer? Discuss treatment options Conization Hysterectomy Radical trachelectomy Surgical removal of the cervix and upper vagina with the surrounding tissues. uterine body remains Radical hysterectomy Radiation with chemotherapy Ask about clinical trials (Gynecologic Oncology Group) Other considerations Preserve your fertility Preserve your ovaries Cervical cancer: What is the chance of survival after treatment? FIGO Stage 5-Year Survival Stage I 81-96% Stage II 65-87% Stage III 35-50% Stage IVA 15-20% Vaccines Who should get the vaccine? The FDA has recommended the following groups of women get vaccinated: Girls 11–12: Recommended Age Group (can be started as young as age 9). Women 13–26: the benefit of the vaccine may be lower depending on prior HPV exposure. The vaccine does not work to eliminate current HPV infections The vaccine only prevents certain types of HPV infection Endometrial cancer precursors Endometrial hyperplasia an overgrowth of the lining of the uterus, is a precursor to the development of cancer. Abnormal uterine bleeding is usually the first symptom Risk Indicators for Endometrial Cancer and Precursors Age 60 years Obesity (with upper body fat pattern)a Estrogen-only replacement therapy Previous breast cancer Tamoxifen therapy for breast cancer Chronic liver disease Infertility Low parity Chronic anovulation (Polycystic ovarian disease, estrogensecreting ovarian stroma or tumors) WHO Classification and Diagnostic Criteria of Endometrial Hyperplasi Simple Hyperplasia Without Cytologic Atypia Increased number of glands relative to stroma Dilated glands with irregular outlines Crowded, clustered glands Tall, columnar epithelium with nuclear pseudostratification Complex Hyperplasia Without Cytologic Atypia Increased number of glands relative to stroma Back-to-back glands (crowded glands with little or no intervening stroma) Hyperplasia With Cytologic Atypia Variation of size and shape of nuclei Nuclear enlargement Loss of polarity Coarse chromatin clumping Prominent nucleoli Endometrial hyperplasia Cystic hyperplasia Simple hyperplasia Endometrial hyperplasia Atypical hyperplasia Simple hyperplasia Endometrial biopsy Diagnosis and treatment Intramuscular progesterone therapy. MPA (500mg)therapy for 3 months; Micronized progesterone -cyclic natural micronized progesterone for 3 to 6 months; Levonorgestrel intrauterine device GnRH analogue for 6 months with sampling every 3 months is a reasonable option in patients without atypia. According to the U.S. Gynecologic Oncology Group histologic grading system,1 grade 1, well-differentiated carcinoma, consists of a neoplasm with less than 5% of solid cancer grade 2, moderately differentiated carcinoma, contains between 6% and 50% solid cancer grade 3, poorly differentiated carcinoma, is made up of more than 50% of solid tumor. Modified WHO classification endometrioid adenocarcinoma serous carcinoma clear cell carcinoma mucinous carcinoma serous carcinoma mixed types of carcinoma undifferentiated carcinoma Clinical signs Irregular vaginal bleeding, intermenstrual or post menopausal Watery vaginal discharge may be present in postmenopausal women Mass in late stages Endometrial cancer: investigations T.V.S. and biopsy Hysteroscopy and biopsy ?

For cases where a diagnosis is made early in the disease, when the cancer is still confined to the primary site, the five-year survival rate is 92.7%.
