Clinical Features
Most women with uterine fibroids have no symptoms. The site of the fibroid is more important than size- a small submucous fibroid may produce more symptoms than big subserous fibroid.

• Surgical management
The inner lining of the uterus, or endometrium, is where endometrial cancer develops. Additionally, uterine muscle tissue and supporting connective tissue can develop into cancer. These malignancies are part of the sarcoma cancer subtype.
Most endometrial carcinomas are malignancies of the endometrium's gland-forming cells. They are referred to as adenocarcinomas.
Endometrioid adenocarcinoma, the most frequent form of endometrial cancer,
Squamous cell and undifferentiated endometrial carcinomas are two more, less frequent forms.

The vagina is a tube measuring 3 to 4 inches (7 to 10 cm). It is referred to as the birth canal at times. The vulva, which is the upper region of the uterus, is where the vagina opens up from the cervix (the external genitals). Squamous cells, a kind of flat cell, are used to lining the vagina. Because epithelial cells make up this layer of cells, it is also known as an epithelium (or epithelial lining). Under the epithelium, the vaginal wall is made up of connective tissue, muscle, lymphatic vessels, and nerves. Typically, the vagina is collapsing and its walls are contacting. The numerous folds in the vaginal walls aid in the vagina's opening and expansion during sexual contact or childbirth.y. Glands near the opening of the vagina secrete mucus to keep the vaginal lining moist.The vagina is the passageway that connects the cervix, or uterine opening, to the outside of the body. A baby emerges from the body through the vagina at birth. Malignant (cancer) cells develop in the vagina in a condition known as vaginal cancer.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Squamous cell carcinomas make up around 70% of all vaginal cancer cases. These cancers start in the squamous cells that make up the vaginal epithelial lining. These cancers tend to occur more frequently in the upper vaginal region close to the cervix.
The development of vaginal squamous cell tumors is frequently sluggish. The normal cells of the vagina first develop precancerous alterations. Afterward, a few of the pre-cancer cells develop into cancerous cells. This procedure could go on for years.
Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia is the medical term most frequently used to describe this precancerous condition. The term "intraepithelial" denotes that the abnormal cells are only present in the skin's top layer in the vagina. VAIN comes in three different varieties: VAIN1, VAIN2, and VAIN3.
There are 3 types of VAIN: VAIN1, VAIN2, and VAIN3, with 3 indicating furthest progression toward a true cancer.
VAIN is more common in women who have had their uterus removed (hysterectomy) and in those who were previously treated for cervical cancer or pre-cancer
Squamous cell vaginal cancer spreads slowly and usually stays near the vagina, but may spread to the lungs, liver, or bone.
Adeno Carcinoma
Adenocarcinoma is a kind of cancer that develops from a glandular cell. Adenocarcinoma accounts for around 15 out of every 100 occurrences of vaginal cancer.
Women over 50 are more likely than younger women to get the typical kind of vaginal adenocarcinoma. DES (diethylstilbestrol) is a man-made (synthetic) form of estrogen, a female hormone given to the mother during pregnancy in the belief that it will help some pregnant women who had miscarriages or premature deliveries. One specific type, called clear cell adenocarcinoma, occurs more frequently in young women who were exposed to DES while they were in their mother's womb.
Melanoma
The pigment-producing cells that give skin its color give rise to melanomas. Although they can develop on the vagina or other internal organs, these tumors are typically discovered on skin that has been exposed to the sun. Melanomas account for around 9 out of every 100 instances of vaginal cancer. The lower or outer part of the vagina frequently becomes infected with melanoma. The size, color, and growth pattern of the tumors vary greatly. Our document, Melanoma Skin Cancer, contains more details about this disease.
Sarcoma
A cancer that starts in the cells of the bones, muscles, or connective tissue is called a sarcoma. Up to 4 out of every 100 occurrences of vaginal cancer are sarcomas. Instead of growing on the vagina's surface, these tumors start deep inside the wall. Vaginal sarcomas can take many different forms. Vaginal sarcomas are most frequently rhabdomyosarcomas. Children typically have it, whereas adults seldom do. Adults are more likely to develop the sarcoma leiomyosarcoma. Over-50-year-old women are more likely to experience it. Cancers that begin in other organs (like the cervix, uterus, rectum, or bladder) and then spread to the vagina are much less frequent than cancers that begin in the vagina. These tumors bear the names of the locationsThese cancers are named after the place where they started. Also, a cancer that involves both the cervix and vagina is considered a cervical cancer. Likewise, if the cancer involves both the vulva and the vagina, it is considered a vulvar cancer
Internal Vaginal Examination
Cancers are classified according to their size and whether or not they have spread by their stage. The best suitable treatment for you is determined in part by the kind and stage of your cancer.
Typically, FIGO and AJCC (TNM) classifications are combined to stage ovarian malignancies. Depending on the tumor's size in the vagina and surrounding tissues, as well as if it has migrated to the lymph nodes or other organs, a number between 0 and 4 is assigned to it.
Tumor Extent (T)
Tis: Cancer cells are only in the most superficial layer of cells of the vagina without growth into the underlying tissues. This stage is also called carcinoma in situ (CIS) or vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia 3 (VAIN 3). It's not included in the FIGO system.
Lymph node spread of cancer (N)
Distant Spread of Cancer (M)
Stage Grouping
Once the T, N, and M categories have been assigned, this information is combined to assign an overall stage in a process called stage grouping. The stages identify tumors that have a similar outlook and are treated in a similar way.
T1 or T2, N1, MO: The cancer is in the vagina (T1) and it may have grown into the connective tissue nearby (T2). It has spread to lymph nodes nearby (N1), but has not spread to distant sites (MO).
T3, any N, MO: The cancer has spread to the wall of the pelvis (T3). It may (or may not) have spread to nearby lymph nodes (any N), but it has not spread to distant sites (MO).
Stage IVA (T4, Any N, MO): The cancer has grown out of the vagina to organs nearby (such as the bladder or rectum) (T4). It may or may not have spread to lymph nodes (any N). It has not spread to distant sites (MO).
Stage IVB (Any T. Any N, M1): Cancer has spread to distant organs such as the lungs (M1).
Radiotherapy
The best treatment for many vaginal cancer patients is radiation. Chemoradiation, also known as radiochemotherapy, is a treatment option for certain younger women who are receiving radiotherapy. High-energy radiation (radiotherapy) is used to treat cancer by killing cancer cells while causing the least amount of damage to healthy cells. It is administered in the hospital's radiotherapy department. The exact type of cancer and whether or not it has spread to nearby tissue will determine the required dose. Some female patients receive both external and internal radiotherapy.
External radiotherapy
Similar to getting an x-ray, radiation beams are aimed towards the tumour from outside the body. The patient will be required to go to the radiation department for treatment every weekday for 4-6 weeks while receiving external radiotherapy. Each procedure just lasts a little while and is painless. For therapy, the patient might be required to have a full bladder. During radiotherapy treatment, some women may receive chemotherapy once a week.

Carcinoma of Breast
It is an abnormal spread and proliferation of cells in the body. Mutations in somatic cell genes that control cell development are typically the reason. Nearly every tissue in the body has the capacity to produce cancer; some even do so in multiple forms. Cancer, however, mostly affects cells that divide and procreate more than other types of cells.
Benign Breast Conditions
Numerous non-cancerous illnesses that can affect the breast are referred to as benign breast ailments. A variety of benign breast disorders are referred to as fibrocystic change. Some benign breast disorders can be painful or uncomfortable and require medical attention. Others don't require medical attention. For diagnosis, testing and occasionally a biopsy are required for a number of breast disorders that mirror the symptoms of cancer.
Risk of Benign Breast Conditions
Types of Benign Breast Conditions
Hyperplasia
It is overgrowth (proliferation)of cell and most often found on the inside of the lobules or ducts in the breast . There are two main types of hyperplasia: usual and atypical. Both raise the risk of breast cancer.
Cysts
Cysts are sacs filled with fluid that are often benign. The majority of cysts are too tiny to feel and can only be discovered with ultrasonography. Cysts can cause breast pain and can feel like lumps in the breast if they are large. Ultrasound can be used to identify cysts (without needing a biopsy). Premenopausal women are more likely to develop cysts, but they do not raise the risk of breast cancer. Cysts become less common after menopause.
Fibroadenomas
Fibroadenomas are solid benign tumors that may feel like a rubbery or hard lump. They are most common in younger women between the ages of 15 and 35
Intraductal Papillomas
The majority of these small lumps, which can cause nipple discharge and develop in breast ducts, affect women between the ages of 30 and 50. Surgery is used to get rid of them. Unless they contain abnormal cells or the surrounding tissue has ductal carcinoma in situ, they do not raise the risk of breast cancer.
Sclerosing Adenosis
Small breast lumps known as sclerosing adenosis are brought on by enlarged lobules. It could hurt and present as a breast lump or an abnormal mammography finding. On a mammogram, it might be mistaken for breast cancer due to its distorted shape. The diagnosis might require confirmation through a biopsy. It is benign, though, and does not require treatment.
Radial Scars
A core of connective tissue fibers can be found in radial scars. From this point, lobules and ducts protrude. On a mammogram, radial scars can resemble breast cancer, but they are not. They are most frequently discovered during a biopsy on a breast tumor that was removed for another reason. After they are removed, they need no further treatment.
Benign Phyllodes Tumor
Phyllodes tumors can be benign or invasive (malignant). These tumors are rare, comprising 1% of all breast tumors in women, and more than half are benign. Benign phyllodes tumors similar to fibroadenomas and tend to occur in women ages 30 to 50.
Diabetic mastopathy (lymphocytic mastitis, sclerosing lymphocytic lobulitis/ductitis)
Small, hard masses known as diabetic mastopathy develop in the ducts or lobules. The majority of premenopausal women with insulin-dependent (type 1 diabetes) have this condition. It might show up as a mammogram abnormality or a breast lump. The diagnosis could require confirmation by a biopsy. Treatment for diabetic mastopathy is not necessary.
It is one of the most common cancers. Around one in nine women develop breast cancer at some stage in their life. Most develop in women over the age of 50 but younger women are sometimes affected. Breast cancer can also develop in men, although this is rare. Breast cancer develops from a cancerous cell which develops in the lining of a duct or lobule in one of the breasts
Epidemiology
It is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women. It accounts for 6% of all cancers in Nepal Breast Cancer Deaths in Nepal reached 1,248 or 0.84% of total deaths. (WHO, 2010)
Types
Situ Breast Cancer
Situ Breast Cancer remains within the ducts or lobules of the breasts. This type of cancer is only detected by mammograms - not by a physical examination. If the cancer is in the duct it is called Ductal Carcinoma in situ. If the cancer is in the lobule of the breast, it is called Lobular Carcinoma in situ. It is most common among pre-menopausal women. There is also a slight chance that if a woman has this type of cancer she is at risk that it would occur in the other
Infiltrating Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is considered infiltrating or invasive if the cancer cells have penetrated the membrane that surrounds a duct or lobule. This type of cancer forms a lump that can eventually be felt by a physical examination. Breast cancer cells cross the lining of the milk duct or lobule, and begin to invade adjacent tissues. This type of cancer is called "infiltrating cancer".
Infiltrating Breast Cancer:
About 10 to 15% of breast cancers diagnosed are invasive lobular carcinoma. This means the the cancer started in the cells that line the lobules or lobes of the breast and has spread into the surrounding breast tissue
Invasive lobular cancer can develop in women of any age. But it is most common in women between 45 and 55 years old.
Factors that cannot be prevented
Lifestyle Risks
Gender: Female has the main risk for breast cancer. While less than 0.5% of patients with brea cancer are male. It is about 100 times more common in female than in male.
Age: Carcinoma of the breast is extremely rare below the age of 20 years but, thereafter incidence steadily rises, as age of female gets older. About 2 of 3 female with invasive bra carcinoma are 55 years or older at the time of diagnosis.
Family history of breast cancer: Women whose close blood relatives have breast cancer high risk for this disease. Having a first degree relative (mother, sister, and daughter) one ad every 10 women will obtain breast cancer by inheriting a gene from a family member
Personal history: A women with breast cancer, in one breast or in another part of the same br has increased risk for breast cancer.
Inherited Genes
Menstrual Periods
Women who have had more cycles because they started menstruating at an early age (before the age of 12) and or went through menopause at a later age(after the age of 55) have slightly higher risk of breast cancer.
Not Having Children or Having Them Later in Life
Women who have not had children or who had their first child after the age of 30 have slightly higher risk of breast cancer.
Oral Contraceptives Use
Studies have been found that women using oral contraceptive (birth control pills) have a slightly greater risk of breast cancer than women who have never used them. Women who stopped using contraceptives more than 10 years ago do not appear to have any increased breast cancer risk.
No Breast Feeding
Some studies suggest that breast feeding lower breast cancer risk, especially if it is continued for 1.5 to 2 years
Alcohol Consumption
The risk increases with the amount of alcohol consumed.
Lack of Physical Activities
Evidence is growing that physical activities in the form of exercise reduce breast cancer risk.
Overweight or Obese
Being overweight or obese has been found to breast cancer risk especially for women after menopause. Before menopause ovaries produce most of estrogens and fat tissue produce small estrogens comes from fat tissue. Having more fat tissues after menopause (increases the chance of getting breast cancer by raising estrogens level).
Exposure to Radiation
Using Postmenopausal Hormone Therapy
Post-menopausal hormone therapy is also known as Hormonal Replacement Therapy, has been used for many years to help relieve symptoms of menopause and to help prevent osteoporosis.
Clinical Staging is determined by considering the size of the original tumor (T), the lymph nodes (L), and metastasis (M). This is called the TNM Criteria.
TNM Criteria
N = Regional Lymph nodes
M = Distant Metastasis
Clinical Manifestations
The most common sign of breast cancer is a new lump or mass. A mass that is painless hard and has irregular edge is more likely to be concern us but breast cancer can be tender soft and rounded.
Other Possible Signs of Breast Cancer are:
There may occasionally be a lump or swelling where breast cancer has spread to the lymph nodes under the arm.
Diagnosis
Surgical Management
Breast Conserving Surgery
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is the use of anti-cancer (cytotoxic) drugs to destroy or slow the growth of rapidly multiplying cancer cells.
Neo Ajuvant Chemotherapy
Adjuvant Chemotherapy
Palliative Chemotherapy
The drugs are:
Hormonal Therapy
The third most frequent type of cancer in women worldwide is cervical cancer. With the use of numerous preventative and screening measures over the past several decades, significant progress has been achieved in lowering the incidence and death of cervical cancer. The Human Papilloma Virus is the causative agent linked to the development of cervical cancer and its precursors. When the body's cells start to proliferate out of control, cancer develops. Cancerous cells can develop in almost any part of the body and spread to other organs. The cells lining the cervix, or lower portion of the uterus, are where cervical cancer first develops.This is sometimes called the uterine cervix. The fetus grows in the body of the uterus (the upper part).
The cervix joins the vagina to the uterus's body (birth canal). The endocervix is the portion of the cervix that is most closely connected to the uterus. The exocervix is the area adjacent to the vagina (or ectocervix). Squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma are the two most common forms of cervical cancer. Squamous cell carcinomas make up the majority of cervical malignancies (up to 9 out of 10). These malignancies develop from exocervical cells, and under a microscope, the cancer cells resemble squamous cells. The transformation zone is where squamous cell carcinomas most frequently start.
Adenocarcinomas make up the majority of the other cervical malignancies. Glands cells can become cancerous tumors called adenocarcinomas. The endocervical gland cells that produce mucus give rise to cervical cancer. In the past thirty years, cervical adenocarcinomas appear to have increased in frequency. Less frequently, cervical cancers resemble squamous cell carcinomas and adenocarcinomas in their characteristics. Adenosquamous carcinomas or mixed carcinomas are the names given to these.
Infection by men is the main risk factor for cervical cancer. the gepilloma virus (P) Py is a collection of more than 150 connected diseases, some of which lead to a kind of d that affects the tissues lining the mouth, throat, anos, and genitalia but not the blood vessels or internal organs like the heart or longs. HPV may be transmitted from one person to another during intercourse, including vaginal, anal, and even oval sex. Various forms of HPV can cause warts on various body areas. Some people cause warts to appear on the hands and feet, lips, or tongue. Certain types of HPV may cause warts on or around the female and male genital organs and in the anal area.
Smoking
Smokers and those around them are exposed to a variety of cancer-causing substances that harm organs outside the lungs when they smoke. These dangerous compounds are absorbed through the lungs and transported throughout the body by the bloodstream. Cervical cancer is nearly two times more likely to affect women who smoke than non-smokers.
Immunosuppression
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the virus that causes Alt, damages the immune system and puts women at higher risk for HPV infections. This might explain why women with ADS have a higher risk for cervical cancer.
Chlamydia Infection
A somewhat frequent kind of bacterium that can affect the reproductive system is chlamydia. Sexual contact is how it spreads. Some studies have found an increased risk of cervical cancer in women whose blood test results reveal signs of prior or present chlamydia infection. Chlamydia infection can induce pelvic inflammation, which can result in infertility (compared with women who have normal test results).
A diet low in fruits and vegetables: Women whose diets don't include enough fruits and vegetables may be at increased risk for cervical cancer. Being overweight women are more likely to develop adenocarcinoma of the cervix
Long-term use of oral contraceptives (birth control pills). There is evidence that taking oral contraceptives (OCs) for a long time increases the risk of cancer of the cervix.
Intrauterine Device Use
A recent study found that women who had ever used an intrauterine device (IUD) had a lower risk of cervical cancer. The effect on risk was seen even in women who had an IUD for less than a year, and the protective effect remained after the IUDs were removed.
Having Multiple full-term Pregnancies
Cervical cancer risk is higher in women who have had three or more full-term pregnancies. The real reason this is the case is unknown. According to one explanation, these women may have been more exposed to HPV since they needed unprotected sexual activity to become pregnant. The risk of developing cervical cancer later in life is roughly two times higher for women under the age of 17 who had their first full-term pregnancy than for those who waited until they were 25 or older.
Poverty
Cervical cancer risk factors may include poverty. Many low-income women lack easy access to sufficient medical treatments, such as Pap screenings. As a result, they could not undergo screening cervical pre-cancers were treated
Diethylstilbestrol (DES)
Between 1940 and 1971, DES, a hormone medication, was prescribed to certain women to stop miscarriages. Clear-cell adenocarcinoma of the vagina or cervix develops more frequently in women whose mothers used DES (when carrying them). Women who have not been exposed to DES are extremely unlikely to develop this type of cancer.
Family History of Cervical Cancer
The most common finding in patients with cervical cancer is an abnormal Papanicolaou (Pap) test result. Physical symptoms of cervical cancer may include the following:
Stage 0 (Tis, NO, MO): The cancer cells are only in the cells on the surface of the cervix (the layer of cells lining the cervix), without growing into (invading) deeper tissues of the cervix. This stage is also called carcinoma in situ (CIS) which is part of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3).
Stage IA2 (T1a2, NO, MO): The cancer is between 3 mm and 5 mm (about 1/5-inch) deep and less than 7 mm (about 1/4-inch) wide. The cancer has not spread to nearby lymph nodes (NO) or distant sites (MO).
Stage II (T2, NO,MO):In this stage ,the cancer has grown beyond the cervix and uterus , but hasn't spread to wall of the pelvis or lower part of the vagina.
Stage III (TS, NO, MO): The cancer has spread to the lower part of the reg of the walls of the pelvis. The cancer may be blocking the ureters (tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder). It has not spread to nearby lymph nodes (NO) or distant sites (MO)
Stage IV: This is the most advanced stage of cervical cancer. The cancer has spread to nearly organs or other parts of the body.
How Biopsy Results are Reported:
Pre-cancerous changes in a biopsy are called cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Sometimes the term dysplasia is used instead of CIN. CIN is graded on a scale of 1 to 3 based on how much of the
cervical tissue looks abnormal when viewed under the microscope.
Screening Recommendations
Current screening recommendations for specific age groups, based on guidelines from the American Cancer Society (ACS), the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (ASCCP), the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP), the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), are as follows:
Common types of treatments for cervical cancer include:
Surgery
Cervical Cancer in Pregnancy
Pregnant women are at a modest increased risk of developing cervical cancer. Most medical professionals agree that carrying the baby to term is safe if your cancer is at an extremely early stage. A cone biopsy or hysterectomy is advised a few weeks after birth. The decision to carry the pregnancy on must be made if the cancer is staged higher.
Radiation and/or a radical hysterectomy would be used as therapy if not. if you decide to carry the pregnancy out. As soon as the infant can survive outside the womb, a cesarean section should be performed to deliver it. Cancers that are more advanced need to be treated right away.
Brachytherapy:
Brachytherapy, often known as internal radiation therapy, is a different kind of radiation treatment. This entails putting a radiation source within the malignancy or close by. Intracavitary brachytherapy, the form of brachytherapy used most frequently to treat cervical cancer, uses a device inside the vagina to house the radiation source (and sometimes the cervix).
The radioactive substance is inserted into a cylinder in the vagina to treat cervical cancer in women who have had hysterectomy. In order to treat a lady who still has a uterus, radioactive material can be inserted into a tiny metal tube called a tandem and tiny circular metal containers called ovoids that are positioned close to the cervix.
This is sometimes called tandem and ovoid treatment.
Screening of Reproductive Neoplasm
When cancer may be detected early for successful treatment, cancer screening tests are effective. Diagnostic procedures are frequently employed when a person exhibits signs and symptoms. Diagnostic procedures are used to identify, or diagnose, the origin of symptoms. As a preventive measure, diagnostic tests may also be used to check someone who is thought to be at high risk for cancer.
Pap test
Pap test can be done in order to find cancer early and the treatment works best. The Pap test also helps prevent cervical cancer by finding precancers, cell changes on the cervix that might become cervical cancer if they are not treated appropriately.
HPV Test
HPV test identify HPV infection and used for screening women aged 30 years and older. It is especially important to recognize warning signs and go for the investigation is essential.
Define bengin tumor .
Cancer is a malignant tumor; a benign tumor is not cancer. In contrast to cancer, it does not travel to other regions of the body or infiltrate neighboring tissue. The prognosis for benign tumors is often excellent. However, benign tumors can become dangerous if they put pressure on important organs or tissues like blood arteries or nerves.
Define malignant bresat tumor .
Because they are aggressive, malignant tumors will invade nearby tissues. Once the tumor has been located, a doctor could advise a biopsy to determine the extent and the stage of the malignancy. A malignant tumor may initially be detected and treated as breast cancer, but it has the potential to change into other diseases.
Define Cervical cancer.
Cancer that develops in the cervix is called cervical cancer. It is caused by cells that have the capacity to invade or disseminate to different places of the body growing abnormally.

The availability of radical pelvic surgeons and the development of "fertility-sparing therapy" in industrialized countries have had a major impact on how cervical cancer is treated across the world. Radiation can be utilized at any stage when surgery is not an option since cervical tumors are radiosensitive.
There are differing views on whether an abdominal or vaginal radical trachelectomy is preferable. Most women recover relatively rapidly from a radical abdominal trachelectomy with lymphadenectomy (approximately six weeks), and the hospital stay is often only two to three days.
