Risk of HSIL (CIN 2–3) on colposcopic biopsy is minimal in postmenopausal women with LSIL on cytology and a negative HRHPV test.

Abstract. Background: Current cervical cancer screening guidelines recommend a 1-year follow-up period for patients with a postmenopausal low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) who are test negative for high-risk human papillomavirus (HrHPV). The aim of this study was to assess whether such patients had an increased immediate risk of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. Methods: We assessedSigueSigue leyendo «Risk of HSIL (CIN 2–3) on colposcopic biopsy is minimal in postmenopausal women with LSIL on cytology and a negative HRHPV test.»

Management of ASC-US or LSIL of the uterine cervix with human papilloma virus infection among young women aged less than 25 years.

Abstract.Current ASCCP guidelines recommend repeat cytology 12 months after HPV-positive results in women aged 21–24 years with either atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) or a low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL). The purpose of this study was to validate an algorithm in such women with ASCUS or LSIL. A multicenter cross-sectional study was carriedSigueSigue leyendo «Management of ASC-US or LSIL of the uterine cervix with human papilloma virus infection among young women aged less than 25 years.»

Modeling high-grade serous carcinoma: how converging insights into pathogenesis and genetics are driving better experimental platforms.

Paul Michael Jones and Ronny Drapkin. Department of Medical Oncology, Harvard Medical School, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, USA. Recent developments in the study of epithelial ovarian cancer have called into question the traditional views regarding the site of tumor initiation. Histopathologic studies and genomic analyses suggest that extra-ovarian sites, like the fallopian tube, maySigueSigue leyendo «Modeling high-grade serous carcinoma: how converging insights into pathogenesis and genetics are driving better experimental platforms.»

The fallopian tube as the origin of non-uterine pelvic high-grade serous carcinoma.

Ieera Madan Aggarwal, Yu Hui Lim, Timothy Yong Kuei Lim. Abstract. Key content: Advances in histopathology, immunohistochemistry and molecular genetics have led to evidence that the fimbrial end of the fallopian tube may be the source of origin of non-uterine high-grade pelvic serous carcinoma (HGPSC). Most of the evidence comes from studies in risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomySigueSigue leyendo «The fallopian tube as the origin of non-uterine pelvic high-grade serous carcinoma.»

Cervical cancer prevention and screening: the role of human papillomavirus testing. Review.

  Abstract Key content An organised screening programme has reduced the incidence of cervical cancer in the UK. Cervical screening aims to detect and treat premalignant, low- or high-grade disease. Oncogenic or high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPV) account for over 99.7% of cervical cancer cases; the most common subtypes are HPV-16, 18, 31, 33 and 45.SigueSigue leyendo «Cervical cancer prevention and screening: the role of human papillomavirus testing. Review.»

The Natural History of Vulvar Intraepithelial Neoplasia, Differentiated Type: Evidence for Progression and Diagnostic Challenges.

Middlemore Hospital (S.M.B.), Auckland, New Zealand; Department of Gynecological Oncology (L.J.E., K.L.F., R.W.J.), Auckland City Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand. The authors declare no conflict of interest. Abstract. Squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva (SCCV) develops through either human papillomavirus (HPV)-dependent or HPV-independent pathways. Approximately 60% of SCCV arise independently of HPV, commonly in a backgroundSigueSigue leyendo «The Natural History of Vulvar Intraepithelial Neoplasia, Differentiated Type: Evidence for Progression and Diagnostic Challenges.»
