  • Ovarian Cancer and Cervical Cancer
    What Every Woman Should Know About Gynecologic Cancer R. Kevin Reynolds, MD The George W. Morley Professor & Chief, Division of Gyn Oncology University of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI What is gynecologic cancer? Cancer is a disease where cells grow and spread without control. Gynecologic cancers begin in the female reproductive organs. The most common gynecologic cancers are endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer and cervical cancer. Less common gynecologic cancers involve vulva, Fallopian tube, uterine wall (sarcoma), vagina, and placenta (pregnancy tissue: molar pregnancy). Ovary Uterus Endometrium Cervix Vagina Vulva What causes endometrial cancer? Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic cancer: one out of every 40 women will develop endometrial cancer. It is caused by too much estrogen, a hormone normally present in women. The most common cause of the excess estrogen is being overweight: fat cells actually produce estrogen. Another cause of excess estrogen is medication such as tamoxifen (often prescribed for breast cancer treatment) or some forms of prescribed estrogen hormone therapy (unopposed estrogen). How is endometrial cancer detected? Almost all endometrial cancer is detected when a woman notices vaginal bleeding after her menopause or irregular bleeding before her menopause. If bleeding occurs, a woman should contact her doctor so that appropriate testing can be performed. This usually includes an endometrial biopsy, a brief, slightly crampy test, performed in the office. Fortunately, most endometrial cancers are detected before spread to other parts of the body occurs Is endometrial cancer treatable? Yes! Most women with endometrial cancer will undergo surgery including hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) in addition to removal of ovaries and lymph nodes.

Uterine Tubes • Also called Fallopian Tubes or Oviducts • Open-ended, muscular tube lined with secretory cells and ciliated cells that sweep secretions and peritoneal fluid towards the uterus. • Uterine Tube Regions: – narrow isthmus near the uterus – middle portion is the ampulla – flared distally into infundibulum with fimbriae • Fertilization usually occurs in ampulla or isthmus Epithelium lining the uterine tube consists of ciliated cells, goblet cells and other secretory cells. Cilia move peritoneal fluid and uterine tube secretions towards the uterus. Cervix and Vagina normally have a stratified squamous epithelium Test developed by Dr. G.N.

  • 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.

Although telocytes were previously thought to be localized predominantly in the organs of the digestive system, as of 2018 they have also been described in the lymphoid tissue, skin, respiratory system, urinary system, meninges and the organs of the male and female genital tracts. Since the time of eminent German pathologist Rudolf Virchow, we have known that many pathological processes originate directly from cellular changes. Even though telocytes are not widely accepted by all scientists as an individual and morphologically and functionally distinct cell population, several articles regarding telocytes have already been published in such prestigious journals as Nature and Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • Terminal Innervation of the Uterus and Vagina of the Domestic Hen
    TERMINAL INNERVATION OF THE UTERUS AND VAGINA OF THE DOMESTIC HEN . GILBERT and P. E. LAKE Agricultural Research Council Poultry Research Centre, King's Buildings, West Mains Road, Edinburgh 9 {Received 29th June 1962) Summary. The distribution of nervous tissue within the oviduct of the hen has been examined with particular reference to the isthmus, uterus and vagina. The uterus and utero-vaginal junction were well innervated and nerve cells were more abundant in these regions. An extensive mesh of large nerve fibres was evident in the uterus, together with a much finer network of mainly single fibres associated with the muscle cells. Fewer large nerves were found in the utero-vaginal and vaginal regions. Many of the nerves in the isthmus innervated the blood vessels. Several small ganglia were found externally, towards the caudal end of the uterus and surrounding the uterovaginal junction. The arrangement of the smooth muscle layers of the posterior oviduct is described. INTRODUCTION Various manipulative treatments of the distal regions of the oviduct of both mammals and birds can cause disturbances in either ovarian or oviducal function (Meyer, Leonard & Hisaw, 1930; Shelesnyak, 1931; Haterius, 1933; Rothchild & Fraps, 1945; Moore & Nalbandov, 1953; Huston & Nalbandov, 1953;Sykes, 1953; van Tienhoven, 1953; Nalbandov, Moore & Norton, 1955; Donovan, 1961; Donovan & Traczyk, 1962). Current work in this laboratory involving the surgical manipulation of the distal region of the oviduct of the fowl has confirmed previous observations that oviducal function may be disturbed for a long time. It is well known that the oviduct of the hen is innervated (Johnson, 1925; Mauger, 1941; Hsieh, 1951; Freedman & Sturkie, 1961).
