Age
• 40-50 years old
Risk factors and aetiology
Coitus at young age: <16 years old increased risk by 50%
Number of sexual partners: 6 sexual partners or more increase risk by 14.2
folds.
Smoking for> 12 years increase the risk by 12.7 folds.
Male related risk factors:
number of the partners previous sexual relationships is relevant .
cervical cancer risk increased if partners has penile cancer (circumcision)
Previous wife with cervical cancer.
Poor uptake of screening program.
Long term use of the contraceptive pill increase the risk due to increasing
exposure to seminal fluids.
Barrier method decrease the risk (condan)
Immuno suppresion risk increased with immuno suppressed renal transplant
patients and in HIV positive women.
HPV (Human papilloma virus ) infection mainly 16,18
the main aetiological is infection with subtypes of HPV (16,18)
Low socioecomic class of
Type of patient:
• Multiparous.
• Low socioeconomic class.
• Poor hygiene.
• Prostitutes.
• Low incidence in Muslims and Jews.
Predisposing factors:
• Cervical dysplasia.
• (Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia)
• CIN III / CARCINOMA IN SITU
• THE LESION PROCEEDS THE INVASION BY 10-
12 YEARS
Symptoms:
Early symptoms Late symptoms
- None. - Pain, leg oedema.
- Thin, watery, blood tinged - Urinary and rectal
vaginal discharge frequently symptoms
goes unrecognized by the dysuria
patient. haematuria
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding rectal bleeding
Intermenstrual constipation
Postcoital haemorrhoids
Perimenopausal - Uraemia
Postmenopausal
- Blood stained foul vaginal
discharge.
Pathology type
• Squamous cell carcinoma- 90%.
• Adenocarcinoma- 10%.
Types of growth
• Exophytic: is like cauliflower filling up the
vaginal vualt.
• Endophytic: it appears as hard mass with a
good deal of induration.
• Ulcerative: an ulcer in the cervix.
DIAGNOSIS
1- History.
• Many women are a symptomatic .
• Presented with abnormal routine cx smear
• Complain of abnormal vaginal bleeding
• post coital bleeding
• perimenopausal bleeding
• postmenopausal bleeding
• blood stain vaginal discharge
2- Examination:
• Mainly vaginal examination using cuscu’s
speculem nothing is found in early stage .
• Mass ,ulcerating fungating in the cervix
• P/V P/R is very helful.
Cytology Histology
calposcopy
Preoperative evaluation
• Review her history.
• General examination:
o Anaemia.
o Lymphadenopathy-Supraclavicular LN.
o Renal area.
o Liver or any palpable mass.
o Oedema.
• Laboratory tests:
o CBC, LFT, RFT, Urine analysis.
o Tumour markers.
o Chest X- ray, abdominal X- ray, IVU.
o CAT, MRI, if necessary.
o Ultrasound.
o Lymphography, if necessary.
Staging
Best to follow FIGO system.
• Examination under anaesthesia.
• Bimanual palpation.
• P/V, P/R.
• Cervical biopsy, uterine biopsy.
• Cystoscopy, Proctoscopy, if necessary.
STAGES OF CANCER CERVIX
B-Secondary nodes:
Common iliac
Sacral
Vaginal
Paraaortic
Inguinal.
DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
• Cervical ectropion.
• Cervical tuberculosis.
• Cervical syphilis, Schistosomiasis, and
Choriocarcinoma are rare causes.
TREATMENT
• Surgical.
• Radiotherapy.
• Radiotherapy & Surgery.
• Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy followed by
Surgery.
• Palliative treatment.

Drug Combinations Used in Cervical Cancer
Gemcitabine-Cisplatin
• Diagnosis • Treatment
– Pelvic examination – Surgery
– Pap smear (detect cancer spread • Hysterectomy
to cervix)
• Salpingo-oophorectomy
– Endometrial biopsy
• Pelvic lymph node
– Dilation and curettage dissection
– Transvaginal ultrasound • Laparoscopic lymph node
sampling
– Radiation therapy
– Chemotherapy
– Hormone therapy
• Progesterone
• Tamoxifen
Endometrial hyperplasia
• Overgrowth of the glandular epithelium of the
endometrial lining
• Usually occurs when a patient is exposed to
unopposed estrogen, either estrogenically or
because of anovulation
• Rates of neoplasm
– simple hyperplasia: 1%.
– complex hyperplasia with atypia: 30%
Endometrial Hyperplasia
• Complex hyperplasia with atypia
– One study found incidence of concomitant
endometrial cancer in 40% of cases
– Hysterectomy or high dose progestin tx
• Simple
– Often regress spontaneously
– Progestin treatment used for treating bleeding
may help in treating hyperplasia as well
• Estrogen dependent disease
– Prolonged exposure without the balancing effects
of progesterone
• Premalignant potential
– Endometrial hyperplasia
– Simple => 1%
– Complex => 3%
– Simple with atypia => 8%
– Complex with atypia => 29%
Reduced Risk
• Oral Contraceptives
– Combined OC => 50% reduced rate
– Actual reduction number small because uncommon in
women of child bearing age
– Long term offers protection
– Reduced risk presumably => progesterone
• Tobacco Smoking
– Some evidence that it reduces the rate
– Smokers have lower levels of estrogen and lower rate
of obesity
Prevention and Survival
• Early detection is best prevention
• Treating precancerous hyperplasia
– Hormones (progestin)
– Hysterectomy
– 10 ~ 30% untreated develop into cancer
• Average 5 year survival
– Stage I => 72 ~ 90%
– Stage II=> 56 ~ 60%
– Stage III => 32 ~ 40%
– Stage IV => 5 ~ 11%
Potentially modifiable risk factors
Dietary factors
Isoflavones:
Phytoestrogens that have
properties similar to
selective estrogen
receptor modulators
