Uterus Tumours: an Overview
Note Anatomically, uterine neoplasms may be localized at the corpus, isthmus (the transition between the endocervix and uterine corpus) and cervix. The fallopian tubes and uterine ligaments may also undergo tumour tranformation. This overview will focus on uterine cervix and corpus tumours, including benign, pre-malignant and malignant lesions. They may affect the endometrium, muscles or other ...
متن کاملUterine Cancer in the Rabbit
That the uterus is the most frequent primary site of tumours in the rabbit was shown by Polson (1927) and subsequently confirmed by Fardean (1931). In Polson's collected series of 67 tumours, including one which was added while the paper was in proof, 31, or 46 per cent, were primary in the uterus. In Fardeau's series of 73 tumours, 32, or 44 per cent, were uterine. Fardeau omitted 2 of Polson'...
متن کاملMalignant biphasic uterine tumours: carcinosarcomas or metaplastic carcinomas?
Uterine carcinosarcomas (malignant mixed Mullerian tumours) are highly aggressive and have traditionally been regarded as a subtype of uterine sarcoma. However, in recent years convincing evidence has suggested that most, but not all, are monoclonal in origin rather than true collision tumours. Data confirm that the carcinomatous element is the "driving force" and that the sarcomatous component...
متن کاملHypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy in association with pulmonary metastases from extrathoracic tumours.
Three cases of pulmonary osteoarthropathy secondary to pulmonary metastases from extrathoracic tumours are described. Analysis of the reported cases shows that most of them were secondary to osteosarcoma, nasopharyngeal tumour, fibrosarcoma, and uterine tumour. Fibrous tumours and tumours with a predominantly fibrous stroma tend to be associated with osteoarthropathy more than others. This sugg...
متن کاملParaplegia caused by extraspinal metastasis from a uterine fibroid.
Uterine fibroids are usually benign tumours, but occasionally, like some apparently benign thyroid tumours, they fail to behave as such and metastasize. " Benign metastasizing fibroid," like " benign metastasizing goitre" (Cohnheim, 1876), is a bad term, however, because it is self contradictory. There is evidence that the thyroid tumours are carcinomas and areas may be found in them where ther...
