Extirpation is a surgical procedure involving the complete removal of the uterus. 

The main indications for the appointment of uterine extirpation are malignant tumors, endometriosis, fibroids, fibrosis, uterine prolapse and other diseases of the female reproductive system in the late stages, when other treatment is impossible.

Before prescribing this surgical intervention to a patient, doctors should carefully examine the picture of the disease and assess all the risks, weighing all the pros and cons of this decision. For example, this method of treatment is applied to young women only in the most extreme cases.

Partial removal of the uterus or partial hysterectomy is a process in which the body of the reproductive organ is completely removed. Doctors do not remove the cervix and ovaries during the procedure. The intervention is performed minimally invasively through small incisions in the skin or through the vagina.

Uterus transplantation is a surgical procedure in which a healthy uterus is transplanted into the body of a woman who does not have this organ. Such a breakthrough in medicine allows not only to return the joy of a full life to some patients, but also gives many couples the opportunity to have children.

Cervical cancer is one of the most recognizable during diagnosis, even at an early stage. The main types of screening for cervical cancer include:

• Pap test (Pap smear) - allows you to detect abnormal changes in cells on the cervix, which can later turn into a cancerous tumor if they are not treated properly.;
• The HPV (human papillomavirus) test allows you to find a virus that can cause adverse changes in cells.

Recurrent uterine cancer is a tumor that has returned after initial treatment. With standard approaches (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy) this condition is considered incurable. The prognosis for recurrent uterine cancer depends on the aggressiveness and area of spread of the recurrent tumor. If the neoplasm is located within the uterus, the five–year survival rate of patients averages 27-28%. In the case of metastasis, this indicator decreases to 15%.

Cervical cancer is a malignant tumor on the cervix. It occurs in women of any age, so everyone needs to know everything about cervical cancer: what causes it, what types there are, how it manifests itself and how it is treated.

The link between human papillomavirus and cervical cancer has been unequivocally proven — HPV has been found in the vast majority of patients. Other risk factors include smoking, prolonged use of oral contraceptives, and a history of multiple pregnancies. Frequent change of sexual partners is also a possible cause, as it increases the likelihood of HPV infection.

Cervical cancer is a serious oncological disease. Patients develop malignant tumors on the surface of the cervix that can metastasize. This type of cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. As the statistics of cervical cancer treatment show, the fight against the disease in its early stages is the most effective.

Cervical cancer is currently one of the most common malignancies that occur in women of any age group. Thanks to the achievements of modern medicine, the development of cervical cancer can be prevented, however, if the process of cancer formation and spread has already been launched, the patient needs a thorough examination and therapy.

Uterine cervical cancer manifests itself as malignant neoplasms on the mucous membrane of the organ. Of all the forms of cancer in young women, this particular disease has one of the highest mortality rates. The danger of the disease is also that the tumor gives numerous metastases – most often to bones, lungs and liver. And if the disease is allowed to reach a late stage of development, the chances of recovery are reduced to almost zero.

Cervical cancer is a malignant tumor that develops from the mucous membrane of the cervix. The disease can cause numerous metastases – both to the body of the uterus and the vagina, as well as to bones, liver, lungs and other organs. The disease can occur in various forms, and modern medicine identifies several types of cervical cancer.
