  • Treating Cervical Cancer If You've Been Diagnosed with Cervical Cancer, Your Cancer Care Team Will Talk with You About Treatment Options
    cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 Treating Cervical Cancer If you've been diagnosed with cervical cancer, your cancer care team will talk with you about treatment options. In choosing your treatment plan, you and your cancer care team will also take into account your age, your overall health, and your personal preferences. How is cervical cancer treated? Common types of treatments for cervical cancer include: ● Surgery for Cervical Cancer ● Radiation Therapy for Cervical Cancer ● Chemotherapy for Cervical Cancer ● Targeted Therapy for Cervical Cancer ● Immunotherapy for Cervical Cancer Common treatment approaches Depending on the type and stage of your cancer, you may need more than one type of treatment. For the earliest stages of cervical cancer, either surgery or radiation combined with chemo may be used. For later stages, radiation combined with chemo is usually the main treatment. Chemo (by itself) is often used to treat advanced cervical cancer. ● Treatment Options for Cervical Cancer, by Stage Who treats cervical cancer? Doctors on your cancer treatment team may include: 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________American Cancer Society cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 ● A gynecologist: a doctor who treats diseases of the female reproductive system ● A gynecologic oncologist: a doctor who specializes in cancers of the female reproductive system who can perform surgery and prescribe chemotherapy and other medicines ● A radiation oncologist: a doctor who uses radiation to treat cancer ● A medical oncologist: a doctor who uses chemotherapy and other medicines to treat cancer Many other specialists may be involved in your care as well, including nurse practitioners, nurses, psychologists, social workers, rehabilitation specialists, and other health professionals.

This material is an educational resource and as such does not define a standard of care, nor is intended to dictate an exclusive course of treatment or procedure to be followed. It presents methods and techniques of clinical practice that are acceptable and used by recognized authorities, for consideration by licensed physicians and healthcare providers to incorporate into their practice. Variations of practice, taking into account the needs of the individual patient, resources, and limitation unique to the institution or type of practice, may be appropriate. I. AN INTRODUCTION TO THE NORMAL CERVIX, NEOPLASIA, AND COLPOSCOPY The uterine cervix presents a unique opportunity to clinicians in that it is physically and visually accessible for evaluation. It demonstrates a well-described spectrum of histological and colposcopic findings from health to premalignancy to invasive cancer. Since nearly all cervical neoplasia occurs in the presence of human papillomavirus infection, the cervix provides the best-defined model of virus-mediated carcinogenesis in humans to date.

  • Tumors of the Uterus, Vagina, and Vulva
    Tumors of the Uterus, Vagina, and Vulva 803-808-7387 www.gracepets.com These notes are provided to help you understand the diagnosis or possible diagnosis of cancer in your pet. For general information on cancer in pets ask for our handout “What is Cancer”. Your veterinarian may suggest certain tests to help confirm or eliminate diagnosis, and to help assess treatment options and likely outcomes. Because individual situations and responses vary, and because cancers often behave unpredictably, science can only give us a guide. However, information and understanding for tumors in animals is improving all the time. We understand that this can be a very worrying time. We apologize for the need to use some technical language. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask us. What are these tumors? Most swellings and tumors of the uterus are not cancerous. The most common in the bitch is cystic endometrial hyperplasia (overgrowth of the inner lining of the uterus) due to hormone stimulation. Sometimes, this reaction is deeper in the muscle layers and is called ‘adenomyosis’. Secondary infection and inflammation then convert the endometrial hyperplasia into pyometra (literally pus in the womb). Cysts and polyps of the endometrium can also be part of the pyometra syndrome or be due to congenital abnormalities. They may persist when the cause is removed and may be multiple. Endometrial cancers may also be multiple. Benign adenomas of the endometrium are rare. Malignant tumors (adenocarcinomas) may spread (metastasize) to lymph nodes and lungs, often when the primary is still small in size.

This has the risk of intraoperative accidents and postoperative associated morbidity. Objective The purpose of this article is the evaluation and quantification of the associated complications in comparison to the postoperative morbidity which resulted after different types of radical hysterectomy. Methods and results Patients were divided according to the type of surgery performed as follows: for cervical cancer – group A- 37 classic radical hysterectomies Class III Piver - Rutledge -Smith ( PRS ), group B -208 modified radical hysterectomies Class II PRS and for uterine cancer- group C -79 extended hysterectomies with pelvic lymphadenectomy from which 17 patients with paraaortic lymphnode biopsy . All patients performed preoperative radiotherapy and 88 of them associated radiosensitization. Discussion Early complications

  • Cervical Health Policies Program Description the Breast, Cervical and Colon Health Program (BCCHP) Screens Qualifying Clients for Cervical Cancer
    DOH 342-035 July 2018 Cervical Health Policies Program Description The Breast, Cervical and Colon Health Program (BCCHP) screens qualifying clients for cervical cancer. The program is funded through a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It is administered by the Washington State Department of Health which contracts with Prime Contractors throughout the state to implement the program regionally.
