Multiple large cysts encircling a smaller, central solid component in the upper cervix; termed the cosmos pattern (referring to the flower,Cosmos bipinnatus) Gastric type adenocarcinomas, including MDA, tend to present instead as predominantly solid lesions; however, some may display overlapping features...
large loop excision of the transformation zoneObjective: The aim of the study was to determine if the depth of large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) is a risk factor for presenting affected endocervical margins. Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study was performed on 353...
We conclude that HPV16-immortalized cells cultured from TZ or endocervix are more susceptible to dysplastic differentiation, and this might enhance their susceptibility to cervical cancer.doi:10.1038/s41598-018-33865-2Deng, HanHillpot, EricMondal, Sumona...
Inhibition of MMP-1 or Akt activity blocks invasion. We conclude that HPV16-immortalized cells cultured from TZ or endocervix are more susceptible to dysplastic differentiation, and this might enhance their susceptibility to cervical cancer. 展开 ...
The primary outcome was endocervical margin status, negative or positive. Other variables were excision type (I/II), TZ (1/2/3), age, menopausal status, hormonal contraceptives, smoking, and sexual debut. Tests used were chi-square or Fisher exact, Mann-Whitney, and simple and multiple ...
Pregnancy increased the absence of EC/TZ component [odds ratio (OR: 2.84, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.14–3.77, p < 0.0001]. Postpartum status and endocervical polyps decreased incidence (OR: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.38–0.98, p = 0.043 and OR: 0.33, 95% CI: 0.25–0.44, p < ...
PURPOSE: An apparatus for gathering cervical cells is provided to gather cells of an endocervix, an ectocervix, and a transformation zone by installing additionally a collection unit.
