21
Q

funnel shaped end. opens into peritoneal cavity – has fingerlike projections that collect eggs from the ovary

A

Infundibulum Fimbria

22
Q

middle enlarged Dilated portion, common site of fertilization, with complex folds of tubal mucosa contains ciliated cells and non-ciliated secretory peg cells

A

Ampulla

23
Q

narrow segment of oviduct

A

Isthmus

24
Q

pelvic inflammatory disease

A

inflammation – salpingitis

25
Q

ectopic edometrial tissue growing in the uterine tube

A

endometriosis

26
Q

serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma are most commonly found in ___ and ____

A

infundibulum and fimbria

27
Q

most common site of ectopic implantation and results in

A

ectopic pregnancy – tubal
rupture with hemorrhage

28
Q

The uterus is divided into:

A

endometrium, myometrium and perimetrium

29
Q

endometrium is divided into

A

stratum basalis and stratum functionalis

30
Q

this layer is supplied by SPIRAL arteries, sloughs(Sheds) at menstruation

A

Stratum Functionalis

31
Q

this layer is supplied by STRAIGHT arteries, source of proliferative stage – relatively insensitive to hormones, gland, stromal and enothelial cells multiply here

A

Stratum BASALIS

32
Q

this part of the uterus is made up of many layers of intertwined smooth muscle

A

Myometrium

33
Q

this part of the uterus is made up of the serosa, simple sqamous epithelia – supported by CT

A

Perimetrium

34
Q

this stage is ESTROGEN based = follicular
days 5-14
estrogen stimulates gland cells –> repopulate functionalis surface
ARTERIES = STRAIGHT

A

PROLIFERATIVE PHASE

35
Q

this stage is PROGESTERONE DRIVEN from corpus luteum = luteal
days 14-26
glands are tortous and enlargeed
SPIRAL arteries are LONG/COILED

A

SECRETORY STAGE

36
Q

ischemic stage
corpus luteum degenerates, progesterone decreases and spiral arteries constrict/rupture

A

Menstrual Stage

37
Q

these are common benign tumors derived from smooth muscle in the myometrium – often appear as multiple well defined white, whorled masses

A

LEIOMYOMA (FIBROIDS)

38
Q

this condition is defined by the presence of endometrial glands/stroma in locations outside the uterus – ovary, uterine tube, surfaces in peritoneal cavity (bladder and bowel)
abnormal tissue contains blood filled cysts from the “cyclical” bleeding

A

ENDOMETRIOSIS

39
Q

in this condition, the endometrial glands undergo hyperplasia

A

endometrial hyperplasia

40
Q

mucosa of CERVIX is divided into

A

endocervix and exocervix

41
Q

this portion of cervix is lined by simple COLUMNAR epithelium with mucous flands and closest to uterus proper

A

ENDOCERVIX

42
Q

this portion is lined by stratified squamous epithelia and closest to vagina

A

EXOCERVIX

43
Q

the junction between the two types of mucosa of cervix =

A

SQUAMOCOLUMNAR junction (SCJ)

44
Q

most cervical carcinomas orginate from where

A

TRANSFORMATION ZONE

45
Q

functional unit of the mammary gland =

A

Terminal Duct Lobular Unit

46
Q

at puberty, duct cells replicate giving rise to small terminal ductules with blind endings – dense connective tissue and adipose cells increase in stroma

A

INACTIVE or RESTING ADULT MAMMARY

47
Q

ducts proliferate, production of milk from secretory units of gland

A

ACTIVE MAMMARY GLAND – late pregnancy and lactation

48
Q

most breast carcinomas are derived from cells where

A

terminal duct lobular unit

49
Q

malignant proliferation of cells in ductules with no invasion of the basement membrane

A

Ductal Carcinoma in Situ

50
Q

80% of invasive carcinomas of the breast, usually grows in duct like patterns

A

Invasive Ductal Carcinoma
