1. Common infectious agents in PID
-Gonococcus, chlamidiae, enteric bacteria, and staphylococci, streptococci, clostridia (after spontaneous or induced abortion)
2. Vulvar Carcinoma
-Morphology:
a. HPV related: HPV 16,18, multicentric, associated with smoking,
poorly differentiated
b. Non-HPV related: older women, unicentric, associated with
squamous cell hyperplasia and lichen sclerosis, well-differentiated
3. Condyloma Acuminatum
-Etiology: sexually transmitted, HPV 6,11, not pre-cancerous
-Morphology: wartlike tumors that look like cocoa pebbles, histo: Koilocytes and perinuclear vacuolization
4. Paget’s disease of the Vulva
-Morphology: pruritic red, crusty, sharply demarked, map-like area on labia majora, histo: large clear tumor cells within squamous epithelium
5. Adenomyosis
-Morphology: small, soft, red or cystic areas in myometrium, spongy
myometrial wall, endometrial glands and stroma found in myometrium
-S+S: asymptomatic OR pelvic pain, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and dyspareunia
6. Endometriosis
-Morphology: foci of endometrium appear red-blue to yellow-brown nodules, chocolate cysts of ovaries, posterior uterus
-S+S: Severe dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, pelvic pain, dysuria, infertility (30- 40%)
-Complications
7. Endometrial Polyps
-Etiology: unknown, but may grow in response to increased estrogen
-S+S: asymptomatic or can cause bleeding
-Morphology: benign sessile masses that are 0.5-3.0 mm that project into
endometrial cavity
8. Endometrial Hyperplasia
-Etiology: prolonged high levels of estrogen
-Morphology: cystic, adenomatous, or adenomatous hyperplasia with atypia
-S+S: abnormal bleeding, high risk for endometrial carcinoma
-Complications: metrorrhagia, menorrhagia, or menometrorrhagia, or
carcinoma

It is related to prolonged high levels of estrogen, persistent anovulation in young women, polycystic ovarian disease, functioning granulosa cell tumors of the ovary, administration of estrogenic substances
9. Leiomyoma
-Morphology: sharply circumscribed, round, firm, gray-white tumors from
small to massive
-S+S: asymptomatic, abnormal bleeding, urinary frequency, pain, impaired
fertility, often multiple
10. Ovarian Cyst
-Etiology: unruptured graffian follicles or ruptured and immediately sealed,
abnormal gonadotropin release
-Morphology: multiple, up to 2 cm, filled w/ clear, serous fluid that may
contain estrogen and progesterone
-S+S: pelvic pain, can induce precocious puberty or menstrual irregularities,
can rupture and cause abdominal pain (follicular)

*functional luteal cysts: originate from corpus luteum, continued progesterone productions causes menstrual irregularities, pain from rupture, self-limiting
11. Polycystic Ovarian Disease
-Etiology: Elevated testosterone, LH, LH/FSH >2, estrone, hyperinsuliemia (insulin resistance); Young women
-Morphology: ovaries are double in size with numerous subcortical cysts 0.5-1.5
cm. Hyperthecosis; no corpora lutea. Endometrial hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma
-S+S: Stein-Leventhal syndrome: numerous cystic follicles, oligomenorrhea (50%), anovulation, obesity (40%), hirsutism (50%), virilism, infertility (75%).
12. Ovarian Cancers
*common, risk factors: nulliparity, family history, pathogenesis: BRCA 1+2,
p53, abdominal pain, distension, abdominal and vaginal bleeding
Surface epithelial cells:
Serous tumor-
common cystic tumors, 75% benign, 40% of cancers of ovary, papillary and psammomma bodies possible
Mucinous tumor-
large sticky masses d/t glycoproteins; 80% benign, Pseudomyxoma peritonei, not bilateral, malignant, lack psammomma bodies, endocervix-like or intestinal lining cells
Germ cells:
Teratoma-
dermoid cysts, struma ovarii (thyroid tissue), carcinoid tumor t hat induces carcinoid syndrome, can be bilateral, hair and sebum produced, immature malignant, excellent prognosis, neuroepithelial tubules
Dysgerminoma-
20-30 decade, malignant, usually unilateral (90%), extremely radiosensitive, some HcG, same appearance as seminoma
Yolk sack tumor-
produce AFP, and α1-antitrypsin; children or young
women with abdominal pain and mass, Shiller Duval bodies!
Choriocarcinoma-
produce HcG
13. Ovarian Fibroadenoma
a. Granulosa-theca cell tumor: large amounts of estrogen, benign,
endometrial hyperplasia with bleeding
b. Fibrothecoma- unilateral, can produce estrogen, call exner bodies, Meigs
syndrome= ovarian tumor, hydrothorax, ascites, resolves after resection of
tumor
c. sertoli-leydig cell tumor: produce androgens, crystals of Reinke, yellow,
some are malignant, induce masculinization
14. Fat Necrosis
-Etiology: trauma, surgery, radiation therapy
-Morphology: adipose tissue inflamed and necrotic, areas of calcification,
chronic inflammatory cells present
15. Mastitis
Acute Mastitis
-Etiology: Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus
-Morphology: unilateral, acute inflammation, single/multiple abscesses
-S+S: inflammation of breasts during nursing, cracks and fissures of nipples
Periductal Mastitis
-Etiology: smokers
-Morphology: keratinizing squamous epithelium blocks ducts
-S+S: painful erthyematous subareolar mass, fistula is formed from under the
nipple onto the skin at the edge of areola
16. Fibrocystic Changes
-Etiology: hormonal imbalance, excess estrogen, functioning ovarian
tumor, deficiency of progesterone
-Morphology: cysts, fibrosis, adenosis, benign, but may mimic carcinoma
-S+S: pain, palpable lumps, nipple d/c
17. Fibroadenoma
-Morphology: Sharply circumscribed and freely movable masses, fibrous
capsules and calcification on histo, hormonally responsive
-S+S: Palpable mass in young women, and a mammographic density in older
women. There is a mild increased risk in developing breast cancer
18. Carcinoma of the breast
Most common type: invasive ductile carcinoma, left breast UOQ,
cribiform pattern, microcalcifications, arises from terminal ducts
