The histopathology of the developing tubal ectopic pregnancy.

Examination of histopathologic sections taken of tubal ectopic pregnancies and gross dissections of these specimens suggest that, in the majority of cases, the growth of the developing trophoblast takes place in a largely extratubal site and that the common clinical impression that the mass associated with the tubal ectopic pregnancy is a dilated fallopian tube is largely erroneous.

Carcinoma in situ of the vulva.

Of 106 patients with carcinoma in situ (CIS) of the vulva, 102 have been followed from 1 to 15 years. The average age of the patient was 47 years; however, 40% were under the age of 41. Twenty-seven percent had associated cervical malignancy. Only 4 patients developed invasive cancer. Of these, 2 were postmenopausal and the 2 younger patients had been immunosuppressed because of systemic disease; thus the subsequent invasive cancer. The incidence of recurrence was essentially the same whether the patient was treated by vulvectomy or wide local excision. In view of the uncertainties about the invasive potential of CIS of the vulva in young patients and the absence of a proved need for an extensive procedure, it is suggested that this entity be treated only by local excision.

Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary.

Reports of 78 cases of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary were collected from the Emil Novak Ovarian Tumor Registry and the files of the Gynecologic Pathology Laboratory of the Johns Hopkins Hospital between the years 1942 and 1966. Two-year and 5-year followups were available for 91 and 83% of the cases, respectively. The prognosis was related to the most aggressive area of the tumor as the histologic grade was based on the maximum number of mitoses per high-powered field. In view of the clinical and histopathologic differences between these lesions and the serous and endometrioid varieties, it is suggested that each tumor be considered on its own merits in order to offer an accurate prognosis.

The morphology of the earliest invasive cell in low genital tract epidermoid neoplasia.

The light and electron microscopic characteristics of the distinct eosinophilic microinvasive cell in the lower genital tract epidermoid neoplasia are described. The eosinophilic quality of the invasive cell is associated with an accumulation of contractive protein seen at the ultrastructural level. The presence of these differentiated cells near the basement membrane should be viewed with more concern as they contain the cytoplasmic machinery with which to invade.

The origin and clinical behavior of the parovarian tumor.

This study of 132 benign parovarian cysts and eight parovarian neoplasms demonstrated that the majority of such lesions are of paramesonephric or mesothelial origin. Furthermore, adnexal neoplasms, not histologically associated with the tube or ovary, may arise in such parovarian structures or de novo from the pelvic mesothelium.

Vulvar carcinoma with hypercalcemia.

Hypercalcemia associated with nonmetastatic malignancy has been reported most frequently with lung or kidney tumors, while among gynecologic malignancies, the ovary has been the most common primary site. The pertinent clinicopathologic features of 2 cases of nonmetastatic vulvar carcinoma producing hypercalcemia are described in the present report. Including 3 previously reported cases, the vulva is seen to be the second most common site in the female genital tract for production of this paraendocrine syndrome. The clinician should be aware of the association of hypercalcemia and mental confusion with bulky vulvar tumors, so that surgery will not needlessly be delayed in a futile attempt to correct the hypercalcemia medically,

Dynamic MR imaging of pelvic organ prolapse: spectrum of abnormalities.

Pelvic organ prolapse is a relatively common condition in women that can have a significant impact on quality of life. Pelvic organ prolapse typically demonstrates multiple abnormalities and may involve the urethra, bladder, vaginal vault, rectum, and small bowel. Patients may present with pain, pressure, urinary and fecal incontinence, constipation, urinary retention, and defecatory dysfunction. Diagnosis is made primarily on the basis of findings at physical pelvic examination. Imaging is useful in patients in whom findings at physical examination are equivocal. Fluoroscopy, ultrasonography, and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can be useful in evaluating pelvic organ prolapse. Advantages of MR imaging include lack of ionizing radiation, depiction of the soft tissues of the pelvic floor, and multiplanar imaging capability. Dynamic imaging is usually necessary to demonstrate pelvic organ prolapse, which may be obvious only when abdominal pressure is increased. Treatment is more likely to be successful if a survey of the entire pelvis is performed prior to therapy. Therapy is usually undertaken only in symptomatic patients. In all patients, imaging findings must be interpreted in conjunction with physical examination findings and the patient's symptoms.
