The novel gene human Biot2 (hBiot2) was first reported by our laboratory. Previously, we indicated its function of proliferation and carcinogenesis in human endometrial cancer. In the present study, we aimed to investigate whether hBiot2 played a similar role in human cervical cancer. We tested hBiot2 expression profile in cervical cancer, the corresponding adjacent normal tissues, normal cervi...

Cervical cancer is a disease that involves the malignant transformation of cells line human cervix. According to global statistics, cervical ranks as fourth most frequently diagnosed and leading cause cancer-related deaths among women [1].

Background: Bleeding during or immediately after the intercourse can be seen in women with benign cervical changes such as polyps, ectropion or infection of the cervix. But, sometimes, important diseases such as cancer of the cervix can be associated with post coital bleeding (PCB). The aim of this study was to find the prevalence of microscopic pre-cancerous lesions of the cer...

isolated skeletal metastasis to the bony calvarium is extremely rare in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix. we describe the clinical and imaging findings in a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix with metastases to the bony calvarium as the sole site of metastasis. the patient was a 65-year-old woman with squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix, f...

Background: this study aims to estimate the rate of death by cancer as a result Radio Base Station (RBS) radiofrequency exposure, especially for breast, cervix, lung, and esophagus cancers. Methods: we collected information on number deaths cancer, gender, age group, gross domestic product per capita, year, amount exposure over lifetime. We investigated all types some specific (breast, cancers)...

Metastatic carcinoma from colorectal cancer to the uterine cervix is rare. We report a case of metastatic carcinoma from a right colon cancer to the cervix with vaginal extension 3 years after primary treatment. Our report highlights the importance of immunohistochemical analysis to determine the origin of uterine cervix cancer in the event of adenocarcinoma in a patient with a history of color...

OBJECTIVES The study aims to investigate the efficacy of screening by low-cost technology in down-staging and reduction of mortality due to breast and cervix cancer. METHODS The present trial is a community-based, cluster randomised controlled cohort study on screening for breast and cervix cancers (clinical breast examination and visual inspection of the cervix after application of 4% acetic...

since most common form of cervical cancer starts with pre-cancerous changes, a flawless detection of these changes becomes an important issue to prevent and treat the cervix cancer. there are 2 ways to stop this disease from developing. one way is to find and treat pre-cancers before they become true cancers, and the other is to prevent the pre-cancers in the first place. the presented approach...

Background: Cervix is part of female reproductive system. Cervix connects the upper body of the uterus to the vagina.The cervix is very commonly affected organ by a variety of infectious, inflammatory and neoplastic diseases. This study was undertaken to focus on uterine cervix tumors, including benign and malignant tumors. The most common uterine cervix benign tumors are leiomyoma. Carcinoma c...
