Female Genital Tract Tumors

Female Genital Tract Cysts

Cystic diseases in the female pelvis are common. Cysts of the female genital tract comprise a large number of physiologic and pathologic cysts. The majority of cystic pelvic masses originate in the ovary, and they can range from simple, functional cysts to malignant ovarian tumors. Non-ovarian cysts of female genital system are appeared at least as often as ovarian cysts. In this review, we aim...

It was noted that the fathers of these babies were frequently suffering from non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) and that the mothers often showed changes in the cervix. The isolation of Chlamydia from two of nine un-selecte...

Pharmacokinetics of antiretroviral drugs in anatomical sanctuary sites: the male and female genital tract.

HIV resides within anatomical 'sanctuary sites', where local drug exposure and viral dynamics may differ significantly from the systemic compartment. Suboptimal antiretroviral concentrations in the genital tract may result in compartmentalized viral replication, selection of resistant mutations and possible re-entry of wild-type/resistant virus into the systemic circulation. Therefore, achievin...
