Endometrail hyperplasia is due to what?
estrogen overstimulation
#1 invasive cancer of the female genital tract is?
& develops from?
Carcinoma
hyperplasia
CIN- typical place it is found and assoc w?
squamocolumnar junction
HPV 16 & 18
CIN 1-
mild dysplasia and only upper layer of epithelium
CIN 2
severe dysplasia throughout the entire epithelial thickness
CIN 3
carcinoma in situ-entire cervical epithelial layer is replaced by neoplastic cells but no invasion beyond the underlying basement membrane
PCOS
chronic anovulation due to androgen excess along w/ obesity
Presentation of PCOS
infertility
amenorrhea
oligomenorrhea
acne
hissutism
endometriosis
proliferation of non-neoplastic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity.
#1 site is the ovary
"chocolate cysts"
presents w 1-dysmenorrhea 2-dyschezia 3- dyspareunia
Uterine leiomyoma
fibroid of benign smooth muscle
#1 uterine tumor and over tumor in women
estrogen sensitive
BLACKS in reproductive years
"whorrled pattern"
common complaint-inpaired fertility
abortion and postpartum hemorrhage
complete hydatiform mole
sperm fert an ovum that has lost its genetic material
grape like cysts
HIGH RISK FOR CHORIOCARCINOMA
incomplete hydatiform mole
1 ovum with 2 or more sperm giving a triploidy or more.
zona pellucida let too many sperm in
grape like cysts
hydatiform mole
VERY high beta hCG-bc produced so much placental tissue
grape like cysts
abnormal ovum fertilizaiton that casues excessive trophoblastic dev in the form of grape like cysts
Choriocarcinoma
frequent and early mets-diagnose too late for intervention :(

Malig neoplasm of throphoblastic cells
VERY high beta hCG

late findings off irregular spotting of brown bloody foul smelling fluid
placenta previa
placenta over or near the internal os
PAINLESS vag bleeding.
most freq bt 27-32 weeks-may recoccur at anytime and cause profuse dangerous bleeding
placental abruptia
premature seperation of placenta from uterus
LIFE THREATENING vag bleeding
sharp tearing PAIN
fetal distress
anytime from 20 weeks on
placenta accreta
abnormally deep attachement of the placenta into the uterine wall
increase risk for post partum hemorrhae and may require hysterectomy after
ectopic preg
outside the uterine cavity usually in the fallopian tube. Bc placenta is not well supported or supplied
Low hCG bc diminished placental health
breast fibrocystic change
multiple
lumpy bumpy
flactulate in size and tenderness with period
bening
breast cancer
solitary
unilateral
non tender early
NOT flactuate with period
benign breast tumors
3
1-fibroadenoma-<30 single, sharp circumzided, mobile, marble shape and size
2-phylloides tumor-huge, log shaped tumor
3-intraductal papilloma-nipple discharge-freequent bloody and serous
breast cancers
1-ductal
2-lobular
3-padgets
4-other
most common breast cancer
invasive ductal carcinoma-scirrhous (hard)
may see peau d orange, nipple retraction, dimpling, may palpate a fixed mass
Padgets Dz of the nipple
a form of DCIS actually extends from the nipple into the nipple skin and areola

fissured, ulcerated, oozing, hyperemic, edematous nipple-like chapped lips
invasive ductal or tubular look like what on mammogram
"spiculated density"-star burst
acute erosive gastritis
focal damage

alcohol
nsaids
cancer drugs
smoking
Chronic type A
A= Autoimmune
glandular destruction and mucosal atrophy

fundus

autoimmune-Ab against gastric glands, parietal cells, and intrinsic factor

assoc w/-Hashimoto, Addisons, Vitiligo-bc also autoimmune
Chronic type B
B=bacteria
H. pylori

affects antrum-lower part of stomach

eventual mucoscal atrophy and then eventual carcinoma
Menetrier's
mucosal hyperplasia- concomitant with atrophy of glands
5 type of intestinal polpys
1-hyperplastic
2-harartomatous
3-inflammatory
4-lymphoid
5-adenomatous
Hyperplastic
most common-90%
decreased epi cell turnover = accum of cells on the surface
little malig risk
Hamartomatous
malformation of glands and stroma of the epi causing overgrowth of mature tissue natural to the area
little malig risk

can be in assoc w/ Peutz-Jegers Syndrome
Inflammatory
IBD- "psuedopolyps"
Lymphoid
large but normal variants of intramucosal lymphoid tissue
Adenomatous
NEOPLASTIC-pre malig for invasive colorectal carcinoma
3 subtypes of adenomatous polyps
1-tubular

2-villous-finger like projections HIGHEST RISK FOR MALIG

3-tubulovillous-both tubular and villous features
Peutz-Jeghers
Auto Dominant

hamartomatous polyp disorder that is familial polyposis syndrome of the whole bowel

polpyps+spotted melanin hyperpigmentation of lips,palms and soles

BUT polyps have very low cancer risk
Familial adenomatous polyposis FAP
AD
loss of tumor suppressor gene APC
almost 100% chance of colon cancer dev :(
Gardner's
FAP variant- classlic FAP + benign mandible and skull tumors + epidermal cysts + high risk for abnormal dentitiion
Turcot
FAP variant +malignant brain tumors
Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer HNPCC or Lynch syndrome
AD
defective DNA mismatch repair genes assoc w/ microsatellites
increase risk-colon cancer and multiple other BUT cancer dev tends NOT to arise from adenmatous polyps
colon cancer
most arise from adenomas
arise: APC (tumor suppressor) becomes inactivated or k-RAS (oncogene) is mutated and p53 (tumor suppressor) is inactiveated- sp we turn off good and start up the bad

risk factors-high calories, high carbs, red mead, low fiber diet

NSAIDS and aspirin are protective :)
Who must be worked up for colon cancer?
ANYONE over 50 with an iron def anemia must be to rule out colon carcinoma
1st places colon cancer mets?
Liver & Lungs

occurs in area of weakness, normally where vessel inserts
most in SIGMOID colong
painless bleeding
DX-colonoscopy, barium enema, and X ray
