Mullerian Duct

Wolffian Duct

Mullerian (paramesonephros): fallopian duct,

Wollfian (mesonephros): epididymis, vas, regresses in females
gartner duct cyst,
mesonephric duct cyst (meso, men. wolffian):

*failure of regression of the mesonephric duct
how does sex develop in a baby
mullerian (paramesonephros) makes female bits, this is default path

wolffian (mesonephros): makes boys parts. this one degenerates in the default setting.

**to make a boy sertoli cells make mullerian inhibitory factor to inhibit paramesonephros (mullerian) girl bits from forming
what structure develops to make girls girls
paramesonephros (mullerian) duct: its the vagina tubes and uterus

external genitalia is made from urogenital sinus
what is the remnant called if the mesonephric duct fails to regress
mesonephros is the boy parts. its called gartner duct cyst,

it can occur in the cervix, vagina, or meso-ovarium
where do germ cells originate in the embryo, do they remain there
yolk sac

then migrate to urogenital ridge

*8recall its the UG SINUS that makes external female genitalia
what does PID present as
pelvic, adnexal tenderness
discharge
fever
what are some predisposing conditions for PID
ascending lower UG infection
sepsis, abortion
surgery, IUD
what are the complication associated with PID
tubo-ovarian abcess--> 2 ovarian failure

peritonitis --> adhesions

stricture
sterility
tubal preggo
bacteremia- infective endocarditis, septic arthritis
how does gonorrhea get to PID
chlamydia
gono: vulva and then ascends to cervix

chlamydia: can infect the cervix alone

**other bugs nad combos of bugs can also cause
tell me about gonococcal PID
common, STI
2-7 days after sex

Bartholinitis: swollen volvular gland
Vestibuar/Periurethral glands are initially infected nad then ascend.

PURULENT- this is why it is caught earlier than a chlamydia infection. this infection causes pain and fever
what causes the pain and fever in gonococcal PID
acute suppurative salpingitis
salpingo-oophritis- ovary infection
peritonitis-
perihepatitis
pyosalpinx- pus in sealed tubule lumen, may resolve to hydrosalpinx
can a gonococcal PID progress to septic arthritis?
you bet!

can also cause tubo-ovarian abcess
infetive endocarditis
peritonitis
etc etc
list predisposing factors for PID


list complications
PREDISPOSOTION:
fallopian stricture
endometritis
IUD
Curettage/abortion
organisms form sex: gonococcus, strep, staph, acintomyces, mycoplasma, chlamydia


COMPLICATIONS:
hydro/pyosalpinx
adhesions, frozen pelvis
tubo-ovarian abcess
infertility- 2 ovarian failure bc of adhesions
peritonitis, perihepatitis: intestinal obstruction and adhesions
Besteremia: endocarditis, septic arthritis
suppurative arthritis
tubal preggo

lower quadrants but most marked on the left.
LMP 2 weeks ago.
• Pelvic exam not done.
• Diagnosis: Gastroenterits. Rx: tylenol. Patient
discharged

• The patient was an IV drug user as indicated
by extensive tracts that made venipuncture
difficult and painful. She admitted to smoking

pain for 2 weeks duration with pain on urination
and defecation.
• Pelvic exam: marked left adnexal tenderness.
• Cervical cultures taken. Pelvic ultrasound
showed a heterogenous pelvic mass with
complex cyst left adnexa 4.5 cm diameter.

iniital sx indicate PID. DO A PELVIC

complications of untreated gonogoccal PID
1. tubo-ovarian abcess
2. pyosalpinx
is gonococcal infection the only cause od PID
no way!

chlamydia
staph
strep

**less pus with these infection sos they are often not detected until sterility
whats bartholin cyst

cause
clinical
assocaitation
caused by
1 blocked gland
2. bartholinitis bc of gonococcal or NG infection

clinical: red, enlarged, sore, painful

tx w/ excision
vulvular vestibulitis clinical features
inflammation of small glands in post introitus

chronic, RECURRENT, painful

tx w/surgery
whats the ddx for vulvular leukoplakia
its NOT cancer,

vitiligo- loss of pigment
inflamm
carcinoma in situ (VIN)
pagets
vulvular dystrophy: lichen sclerosis, lichen simplex
lichen sclerosis

lichen simplex
both are types of vulvular dystrophy and can cause leukoplakia

lichen sclerosis: leukoplakia, over time the skin thins and gets parchment, and the epidermis get thick.

lichen simplex : hyperkeratosis, thick epidermis, dermis w/mild chronic inflamm infiltrate. LOOKS JUST LIKE CA, biopsy!!!!
what disease is when the vaginal skin gets thin and the introitus narrows
lichen sclerosis

analgous to male balantitis xerotica obliterans

lichen simplex: looks like CA. its a thich epidermis
benign nodular neoplasm of vulva
papillary hidradenoma: most common benign of the volvula

can confuse with cancer bc it ulcerates but its benign

at micro looks just like intraductualr papilloma of breast
what is teh sq precancer of the vulva
VIN

vulvular intraepithelial neoplasm

**related to HPV and lichen sclerosis
PAS +, S100 neg
what causes vulvular sq cell carcinoma
1 HPV
2, lichen sclerosis (parchment skin, narrow introitus)
what is the PAS and S100 of VIN
PAS +
S100 neg
• This patient is a 39 y/o gravida 5, para 3 female
presented with complaint of vulvar pruritis.
On PE, there is a dark, irregular discoloration
of the vulva.
• She had no other symptoms referable to the
genital tract.
• She had a long time relationship with the male
with whom she lived.
• Physical examination revealed mottled irregular
hyperpigmentation of the vulva involving
parts of each of the labia majora. • A punch biopsy was performed of one of the
pigmented sites with the diagnosis of VIN III.
• A Pap smear of the cervix obtained at the same
time was NILM
• The patient underwent subtotal vulvectomy.
• There was extensive vulvar intraepithelial
neoplasia, VIN I-III with extension to margins.
What is the significance of the pap smear result?
What is the cause of VIN?
pigmented VIN- precancer to volvular can

NILM- no intraepithelial lesion

PAP- no cervical cacner, or it was past the shedding stage

cause of VIN: HPV or lichen sclerosis
pagets disease is HIGH YEILD

tell me about extramammary pagets
red, crusty lesion of the perineum. this is NOT associated with cancer (breast pagets suggested underlying CA)

serived from primitive epithelial progenitors

PAS + cytokeratin positive
what vulvular lesion is assocation with + PAS and + cytokeratin. its presence is NOT indicitive of CA
extramammary pagets


melanoma is S100 + and cytokeratin neg
melanoma of the vulva. what are the markers
S100 +
cytokeratin neg


**LOW survival
what is s100 + and cytogeratin neg

what is PAS + and cytokeratin +

what is cytokeratin +, PAS neg, and S100 neg
melanoma of vulva

extramammary pagets

VIN

**all are cyto +
VIN
pagets
melanoma

what is cytokeratin, PAS, and S100
all are cyto +, PAS is only pagets, S100 is only melanoma

VIN: cyto +, PAS/S100 neg. risk for invasive sq carcinoma. its atypia of cells. Associated with HPV lichen sclerosis

Pagets: PAS +, no underlying CA

Melanoma: s100+. early mets, lethal
complications of female curcumscision
reproduciton is hard
structures
bleed to death
cant pee
what is teh most common anamoly of the vagina
imperforate hymen - associated with 1 amenorrhea

can get blood all backed up in the uterus and vagina (hematometra)
what are some vaginal anomalies
imperforate hymen
septate (double) vagina- failure of mullerian fusion

garyners duct cyst: wolffian (man) duct doesnt regress and is left behind in the lateral wall of vagina
what is vaginal clear cell adenocarcinoma assocaited with
arises from vaginal adenosis
result of DES exposure in utero

**MUST KNOW
what is the vaginal malignancy seen in kids
embyronal rhabdomyoscaroma, aka sarcoma botryoides

polypoid tumor that projects out of the vagina
why look at a little girls vagina on PE
to be sure there is no embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. the vaginal ca of little girls
rhabdomyosarcoma
vaginal ca of little girls

polypoid tumor that projects from vagina
from what embryonal structure does the uterus and cervix arise
mullerian paramesonephros
what does chronic cervicitis look like
nabothian cysts

reparative atypia- epithelial cells that kinda mimic CA on pap
whats the sx, morph, significance of endocervical polyps
COMMON

NOT CANCER, inflammatory overgrowth

protrude from the os and bleed after sex and other irregular bleeding
when are nabothian cysts seen

what about reparative atypia
both are seen in chronic cervicitis
an inflammatory overgrowth that is NOT CA can cause irregular bleeding. this thing poke out of the os. what is it
endovervical polyps
what cysts are seen in the fallopian tube
paratubal
hytadid of morgagni- mullerian remnants

any tubo-ovarian mass can cause TORISION
what is a complication of ovary cyst (and other ovarian masses)
torsion
what is the most common ovarian lesion
follicular cysts: lined by granulosa and make estrogen
corpus luteum- leutal cyst. makes progestone
whats a hydatid cyst of morgagni
mullerian remant, its a fallopian cyst
ovarian cysts can be

1. follicular
2. luteal

**what is secreted by each
follicular- estrogen. cause endometiral hyperplasia

luteal- progesterone. YELLOW. can cause peritoneal hemorrhage adn menstrual abnormalities
does an ovarian luteal cyst or follicular cyst potentially cause hamorrhage
luteal- THE YELLOW ONE

**the follicular makes estrogen so can cuase endometrial hyperplasia
what are some NON cancerous cysts of the ovary
1 chocolate cyst- endometriosis of the ovary. can lead to infertility. can be hard to distinguish from a hemorrhagic CL
whats a chocolate cyst
endometritis of the ovary

non neoplastic
tell me about PCOD
PCOD is HY!!!!! but ALL ovarian cysts end up on the exam

super sommon, causes infertility and increased risk of endometrial cancer

the ovary looks like it has a string of pearls

TONS of androgens are being secreted
whats the pathogenesis of PCOD
HYPERINSULINEMIA

insulin makes more LH to make more testosterone. also increases aromatase
what is the appearance of PCOD
thick ovarian capsule, with lots of subcapsular follicular cysts lined with granulosa. failure to ovulate

women with this are fat, hairy, and kinda manish from the excess androgen
what are some complications of PCOD
1, infertility
2. endometrial CANCER
what are hte clinical features
its androgen excess so you have

amenorrhea
anovulation
obses
hairy
infertile
acanthosis nigricans
IR is a key feature in what gynecological disease
PCOD

causes increase in aromatase, increase estrogen, increase androgen, decrease SHBG

causes more LH and less FSH
does PCOD increase risk of cancer
yep, increased risk of endometrial cacner bc of the increased estrogen
