Q

T-staging for uterine sarcoma

A

pT1: limited to uterus
pT1a: at most 5 cm in greatest dimension
pT1b: >5cm
pT2a: involves adnexa
pT2b: involves other pelvic tissues
pT3a: infiltrates abdominal tissues in one site
pT3b: infiltrates abdominal tissues in >1 site
pT4: invades bladder or rectum

88
Q

Classification of epithelial-mesenchymal uterine neoplasms

A

Carcinosarcoma - poor prognosis
Adenosarcoma - low malignant potential, poor prognosis if recurrent
Carcinofibroma - uncertain prognosis as uncommon
Adenofibroma - Benign, may recur
Adenomyoma - benign, may recur

89
Q

Define sarcomatous overgrowth in uterine adenosarcoma

A

Presence of pure sarcomas, usually high grade and without epithelial component, occupying at least 25% of tumor

90
Q

Types of GTD

A

Hydatidiform mole
- Complete
- Partial
- Invasive
Nonmolar lesions
- placental site trophoblastic tumor
- Epithelioid trophoblastic tumor
- Gestational choriocarcinoma
- Benign trophoblastic lesions
– Exaggerated implantation site reaction
– Placental site nodule/atypical placental site nodule
– mixed trophoblastic tumors

91
Q

Hydatidiform mole complete vs partial

A

Complete: empty ovum, diploid, markedly increased B-HCG, “snow storm” U/S, large edematous villi with circumferential trophoblastic proliferations, trophoblastic atypia, no fetal parts, p57- in villous cytotrophoblasts and villous stromal cells
Partial - Normal ovum, triploid, normal to mod increased B-HCG, Uterus small for dates, 2 populations of villi (changes lesser than complete), trophoblastic atypia absent, fetal parts present, p57+

92
Q

Cause of complete mole

A

Fertilization of empty ovum by 2 sperm or by 1 sperm with duplication

93
Q

Cause of partial mole

A

Fertilization of normal haploid ovum by 2 sperm with haploid set of chromosomes or by a sperm with diploid set (diandric)

94
Q

Treatment and prognosis for molar pregnancy

A

After evacuation, serial B-HCG to monitor for development of persistent GTD
Risk for persistent GTD: 15-20% complete, 0.5-5% for partial
Risk of chorioCA: 2-3% complete, <0.5% partial

95
Q

Most common type of persistent GTD after molar pregnancy

A

Invasive mole

96
Q

Hydatidiform mole vs hydropic abortus

A

Clinical presentation, B-HCG, rads
Morphology:
Hydropic abortus - no gross abnormality, smooth villi with nild hydrops, no sig trophoblastic prolif, no atypia, no trophoblastic inclusions
p57 IHC - present in hydropic abortus
Ploidy - diploid
DNA microsatellite marker analysis

97
Q

Histology and IHC for placental site trophoblastic tumor

A

Histology - large, pleomorphic implantation-site intermediate trophoblastic cells forming confluent sheets or single cells, with infiltrative growth, scattered multinucleated cells,low mits, vascular invasion, fibrinoid deposits and dissection of smooth muscle
IHC: hPL++, CD10+, MUC4+, p63-, Ki67 10-30%

98
Q

DDx of placental site trophoblastic tumor

A

Exaggerated placental site
Choriocarcinoma
SCC, undifferentiated carcinoma
Epithelioid trophoblastic tumors
Epithelioid smooth muscle tumor
Placental site nodule and plaque

99
Q

Prognosis for placental site trophoblastic tumor

A

25-30% of pts develop recurrent disease or mets and about half of those may die of disease

100
Q

Poor prognostic features for placental site trophoblastic tumor

A

Clear cytoplasm
Deep myometrial invasion
Large tumor size
Necrosis
High mitotic count
Advanced stage
At least 48 months since antecedent pregnancy
Age >40

101
Q

Placental site trophoblastic tumor vs epithelioid trophoblastic tumor

A

PSTT: implantation-site intermediate trophoblasts similar to exagerated placental site
ETT: chorionic type intermediate trophoblasts, similar to placental site nodule
Both have similar clinical presentation and patient prognosis

102
Q

IHC for trophoblastic lesions

A

Placental site nodule: p63+, low Ki67, focal Cyclin E
placental site trophoblastic tumor: HPL+ mod ki67, CD146+
Epithelioid trophoblastic tumor: p63+ CyclinE+, mod Ki67
Choriocarcinoma: HPL+ HCG+, High Ki67
