OBJECTIVE To examine urinary retention as an underreported complication of uterine leiomyoma. Reproductive-aged women with uterine leiomyoma often describe pelvic pressure and menorrhagia, however few complain of complete urinary retention. STUDY DESIGN We dis-cuss the cases of 8 women who presented to our emergency room with acute urinary retention over a 4-year period. RESULTS Patients ha...
Several etiologies have been proposed for erythrocytosis associated with uterine leiomyoma. We report a case of erythrocytosis associated with a large uterine leiomyoma, in which specific immunostaining for erythropoietin was positive. A 55-year-old woman, gravida 0, para 0, was referred to our hospital for treatment for a large uterine myoma and erythrocytosis. She had no vaginal bleeding afte...
Unicornuate uterus is a rare congenital anomaly which occurs due to partial development of mullerian duct system. Patient with unicornuate uterus usually present with dysmenorrhoea, hematometra and endometriosis during their reproductive period. In the absence of these symptoms, proper identification and diagnosis of mullerian anomaly becomes difficult. Sometimes during laparoscopy it can mimic...
Leiomyoma of the oesophagus, although the commonest benign oesophageal tumour, is still rare compared with malignant tumours of the oesophagus. Leiomyomas of the oesophagus are usually diagnosed on barium swallow or histological examination after section. Five cases of leiomyoma of the oesophagus are reported where diagnosis was made by the combination of barium swallow, upper gastrointestinal ...
Leiomyoma of the nipple is a rare, benign, non-epithelial tumor that is thought to arise from smooth muscle fibers in the subareolar tissue of the breast. We report an unusual case of leiomyoma of the nipple in a 32-year-old woman in whom the diagnosis was made by ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy. She came to our hospital complaining of a recently enlarged nipple with discharge and erosion ...
Uterine leiomyoma is the most common benign smooth muscle cell tumor of the myometrium. Although Bcl-2 protein is known to be an apoptosis-inhibiting gene product and to prevent apoptotic cell death in a variety of cells, there are no published data regarding whether human leiomyomas express Bcl-2 protein. In the present study, we examined the expression of Bcl-2 protein in leiomyomas in compar...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Despite their high occurrence and associated significant level of morbidity manifesting as spectrum of clinical symptoms, the pathogenesis of uterine leiomyomas (ULs) remains unclear. We investigated expression profile of tumour suppressor genes PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten) and LKB1 (liver kinase B1), and key signaling components of P13...
Paracrine activation of WNT/β-catenin pathway in uterine leiomyoma stem cells promotes tumor growth.
Uterine leiomyomas are extremely common estrogen and progesterone-dependent tumors of the myometrium and cause irregular uterine bleeding, severe anemia, and recurrent pregnancy loss in 15-30% of reproductive-age women. Each leiomyoma is thought to arise from a single mutated myometrial smooth muscle stem cell. Leiomyoma side-population (LMSP) cells comprising 1% of all tumor cells and displayi...
BACKGROUND Uterine leiomyoma is the most common benign tumor in reproductive-age women. Each leiomyoma is thought to be a benign monoclonal tumor arising from a single transformed myometrial smooth muscle cell; however, it is not known what leiomyoma cell type is responsible for tumor growth. Thus, we tested the hypothesis that a distinct stem/reservoir cell-enriched population, designated as t...
