Q

Mammogram: own notes ?

A

right is speculated and breast may be deformed here and mass may be pulling on tissue

MC in a breast are typically precursors to CA

right - smooth, uniform but suspicion enough for a bx

benign cysts you usually just leave it and no BX so you can get a US cause they are fluid filled

Estrogen and Progesterone own notes ?

A

if you are taking P then you are keeping the endometrium thin - cause is is a continous amount this is no surge to thicken it

taking steady P and E prevents the spike

E have an affect on the clotting mechanism so there is a risk of DVT and TE

coat the cervix with Acetic acid and if there is a dysplastic area it will light us

ASCUS / LGSIL - it will just have a sharply demarcated area ( just dyplasiea)

if it is CA punctate pink and dyplasitc area

90

Hysterosalpingography (HSP) can also see ?

A

Uterine tumors

Adhesions

Developmental anomalies

Tubal obstruction (kinking, scarring)
-scarring maybe from PID which obstructs the egg from traveling
91

Dilation of the cervix

Curettage of the endometrium

**use sounds to dilate the cervix using a large and larger sound

called a sound cause you are testing/measuring how deep the U is ( like when u are placing instruments you do not want to go to deep)

cervix has stretch receptors and no pain receptors - so this procedure does not help but they get cramping

Curettage is the scraping with a sharp rounded tool **

  • *
103
Q

Dx tests: cervicitis ?

A

CT/ GC
Trichomonas
BV

104
Q

Schiller Test is based on ?

109
Q

Schiller Test: __________ constitutes a positive Schiller test.

A

Nonstaining

**if it does not turn brown it is abnormal cells **

**abnormal cells stay llgiith , no matter what you put on them **

110
Q

Hormones own notes

A

they all start as sterols

androgen into estrogens? what enzyme ?

men who do steroid get breast cause the estrodiol conversion ( most potent and most common)

T and converted to estradiol ( too commons was to covert it and that is why it is most common)

some tumors feed on estrogen so give a aromatase inhibitor to patient with breast CA to stop the production of E to starve the tumor

111
Q

E2 (Estradiol) own notes ?

A

most potent and prevalent

give to patients with post menopausal issues
osteoporosis
hot flashes
vaginal atrophy - it thickens walls

E2 increase right before the spike of LH

FSH stimulate the follicle and the ovary starts to make the follicle and secret the follicle within the ovary and the E2 during this cycle is starting to rise and when E2 spikes it causes the LH to spike which is the major hormone for the development of the corpus leuteum and cause ovulation. corpus hemorrhagiousum.

the eggs is then releases and trasv=fered to the uterus and the CH turing to the CL and CL releases hormones P and E that are responsible for thickening endmetrium(P) if there is no implantation the P drops off and the endometrium drops off and this is menstariton

E2 linked to reduction binge eating in mood , depression, bone density, atherosclerotic lesions ( only thing that it is linked to that is unhealthy is breast CA)

112
Q

LGSIL & HGSIL ?

A

low or high grade squamous intrahepathelail leasion - there is dysplasia and precursor to CA there ( comes before a formal dx. of cervial CA)

  • *LGSIL or HGSIL then they usually run a reflex test after
  • *
113
Q

FSH/ LH acts on the ?

A

ovaries or testes

114
Q

Reflex HPV Testing: virus pathology ?
