The cervix is susceptible to various diseases, primarily inflammatory and oncological. The frequency of their occurrence in the modern world, alas, is quite high.
Fibroids are benign neoplasms that occur in the muscular layer of the uterus. This pathology is typical for mature women. So, almost every fifth patient after 40 is diagnosed with such a disease.
A small and slow-growing uterine fibroid is not life-threatening, but it can lead to unpleasant consequences for the female body, prevent the onset and gestation of pregnancy.
Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women. It is characterized by the appearance of malignant neoplasms on the mucous membrane of the cervix. They, in turn, are formed from a precancerous tumor of the cervix. In the absence of timely treatment, such a tumor not only grows rapidly, but is also capable of subsequently metastasizing to other organs.
Squamous cell carcinoma of cervical cancer accounts for 80-90% of all cervical cancers. These malignant tumors occur in cells on the outer surface of the organ. This type is also divided into squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix with keratinization (the presence of dead or keratinized cells) and non-keratinizing (cells have a more regular shape, without keratinized areas, and actively divide). If the neoplasm has spread beyond the diseased organ to a neighboring tissue, invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix is diagnosed.
Carcinoma is one of the most common cancers of the cervix (70% of all cases). Squamous cell carcinomas cover the part of the cervix furthest from the vagina. Adenocarcinoma accounts for the remaining number of diseases (25% of cases). This type of cancer begins in the cells of the mucus-producing gland that lines the cervical canal. In less than 5% of cases, adenoscuminous carcinoma develops – when the tumor contains cells of carcinoma and adenocarcinoma at the same time.
A malignant tumor of the uterus is a fairly common pathology, which is a neoplasm that develops from the epithelium or walls of the uterus.
This type of disease is quite dangerous and has a fairly widespread distribution. A malignant tumor of the cervix, for example, is extremely common in women over 55 years of age.
Remote consultations of oncologists are usually in demand among those patients who cannot go to the clinic for health reasons, do not have enough money or have other reasons.
Moreover, in most cases, patients are interested in conversations with foreign specialists.
Endometrial cancer is most often diagnosed after a woman visits a doctor with characteristic symptoms (swelling, suspicious genital discharge, constant fatigue, high fever). In this case, the specialist conducts a physical examination and examines the medical history, as well as asks about the presence of a hereditary predisposition. At the next stage, more accurate methods of diagnosing cervical cancer are prescribed.
Melanoma or skin cancer is an oncological disease that develops in people regardless of gender and age. The disease arises from melanocyte cells, moles and birthmarks. Melanoma can affect not only the skin, but also the internal organs. The result of the treatment of the disease depends on the timely diagnosis, since in the early stages melanoma is successfully amenable to therapy.
Survival is the time during which, after cancer treatment, patients are in remission, without cases of recurrence of a malignant tumor. Modern medicine measures survival over five-year periods. During this time, doctors monitor mortality rates and calculate the survival rate.
