Preview : Growing evidence about the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in the development of cervical cancer holds promise for prevention as well as early detection. At the same time, important advances in diagnostic techniques and management guidelines based on study evidence offer more effective tools for classification of disease severity and appropriate treatment options. In this article, the authors review the 2001 revision of the Bethesda System and the new evidence-based protocols for managing patients with abnormal Pap smears.

     Extractions: WEB SERVICES: From CNN Medical Correspondent Eileen O'Connor WASHINGTON (CNN) The National Cancer Institute mailed letters Monday to thousands of doctors, encouraging them to use chemotherapy with radiation in treating cervical cancer after a series of studies showed such treatment can cut death rates in half. Dr. Edward Trimble, head of surgery at the NCI's therapy evaluation program, said the findings are "very significant." The results of five separate studies found that women with invasive cervical cancer have better rates of survival when they receive chemotherapy, including the drug cisplatin, along with radiation therapy. "This is a very big deal," Trimble said. "It should change the way women with cervical cancer are treated. We want to get the word across, so we are mailing this announcement to thousands of doctors who treat cervical cancer." This is the first such announcement since 1995, the last pertaining to the treatment of breast cancer.

     Extractions: [Printer-friendly format] ACOG NEWS RELEASE For Release: July 31, 2003 Contact: ACOG Office of Communications communications@acog.org Cervical Cancer Screening: Testing Can Start Later and Occur Less Often Under New ACOG Recommendations Washington, DC In its most comprehensive revision of Pap test and other cervical cancer screening recommendations in over a decade, The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) has issued a new, evidence-based practice bulletin, "Cervical Cytology Screening." ACOG notes that an increasing number of women will no longer need annual testing for cervical cancer and that screening can also begin later than previously recommended. However, annual pelvic examinations are still advised for women across a broad age range. ACOG's new recommendations differ only slightly from recently revised recommendations of the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), but ACOG's new practice bulletin may have a bigger impact on the clinical practices of the nation's obstetrician-gynecologists. "Many of these changes have come about not only because of the technological changes in cancer screening over the years, but also because scientists now have a better understanding of the development of cervical cancer," says ACOG's Vice President for Practice Activities, Stanley Zinberg, MD.

     Extractions: Overview Cervical cancer develops in the lining of the cervix, the lower part of the uterus (womb) that enters the vagina (birth canal). This condition usually develops over time. Normal cervical cells may gradually undergo changes to become precancerous and then cancerous. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia ( CIN ) is the term used to describe these abnormal changes. CIN is classified according to the degree of cell abnormality. Low-grade CIN indicates a minimal change in the cells and high-grade CIN indicates a greater degree of abnormality. CIN may progress to squamous intraepithelial lesion ( SIL ; condition that precedes cervical cancer) or to carcinoma in situ (cancer that does not extend beyond the epithelial membrane). SIL is also classified as low-grade or high-grade. High-grade SIL and carcinoma in situ may progress to

     Extractions: This Document The Sexually Transmitted Disease Epidemic A major epidemic of sexually transmitted disease (STD) has developed during the last 30 years. In the 1960's syphilis and gonorrhea, both easily treated with penicillin, were the only significant STDs. Today there are over 20 diseases with 12 million newly infected persons each year.(1) It is estimated that 1 in 5 Americans is now infected with a viral STD.(2) This does not include the bacterial diseases such as chlamydia, syphilis, and gonorrhea, which are at very high levels. Tragically, 63% of these infections occur in persons under age 25.(3) What caused this dramatic change in a period of just 30 years? The answer is simple: increased sexual mixing of the population. As more and more people have multiple sexual partners, the inevitable result is an acceleration in the spread of STD. The problem is compounded by the fact that 80% of the persons infected have no noticeable symptoms(4) and, therefore, cannot know they are contagious. Unfortunately, STDs are not equal opportunity diseases. Adolescents have a higher degree of susceptibility than do older people. The ectropion of the cervix of a female teenager is more likely to become infected than that of a woman in her 20's.(5) Indeed, researchers have estimated that a sexually active 15 year old has a 1 in 8 chance of developing pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), but that by age 24 the probability has decreased to 1 in 80.(6) PID is the most rapidly increasing cause of infertility in the United States and is a primary reason for the 600% increase in ectopic pregnancies since 1970.(7)

     Extractions: Cervical Cancer Information Directory Home Cancer Types Gynacological Cancers Cervical Cancer Cervical cancer is a common type of malignancy accounting for about 6% of all cancers found in women. It is a disease in which cancerous cells develop in the uterine cervix (this is the connecting passage between the uterus and vagina). The human papillomaviruses (HPV) are the principal cause of most cervical cancers. The peak incidence of cervical cancer occurs between the ages of 40 to 55. It is rare before the age of 35, however the incidence of cervical cancer in younger women rose dramatically during the two decades after 1960. Regular Pap smear tests may detect abnormal changes in the cervical tissues, before cancer develops. Symptoms of cervical cancer may include vaginal bleeding after intercourse or bleeding between periods. However, in the early stages of the disease there are often no obvious signs or symptoms, so regular smear tests are important. What You Need to Know About Cancer of the Cervix - Patient's booklet (National Cancer Institute, USA) This site contains information about the disease, diagnosis, staging, and treatment options.

     Extractions: Cervical cancer occurs when cells in the cervix grow erratically and multiply out of control. Cervical cancer cells and pre-cancerous changes can be detected with a Pap smear. Approximately 50 million Pap smears are performed each year in the United States. The increased use of Pap smear is largely responsible for a significant reduction in the number of deaths from cervical cancer over the years (a decrease of 74% from 1955 to 1992). Treatment options for pre-cancerous and cancerous cells of the cervix include cauterization, cryosurgery, laser surgery, cone biopsy, hysterectomy, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. As with other cancers, the earlier cervical cancer is detected, the greater the chances for successful treatment and survival.

     Extractions: Cancer Center To Learn More About This Topic: Chat with Us Email Us Scientists believe that some abnormal changes in cells on the cervix are the first step in a series of slow changes that can lead to cancer years later. Pre-cancerous changes of the cervix usually do not cause pain. In fact, they generally do not cause any symptoms and are not detected unless a woman has a pelvic exam and a Pap test. About 15,000 women each year learn they have cervical cancer, or cancer of the cervix (the lower, narrower portion of the uterus.) It is important to know that cancer of the cervix is different from cancer that begins in other parts of the uterus, and requires different treatment. Socioeconomic status is a significant risk factor for cervical cancer, since a lack of access to medical care often eliminates the opportunity for early diagnosis by Pap smear screening. Smoking, a high number of sexual partners, and early age of first intercourse are other risk factors. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) and HPV (Human Papillomavirus) infections are also associated risks for cervical cancer. Fortunately, pre-cancerous conditions of the cervix can be detected and treated through regular pelvic exams and Pap tests (also called a Pap smear, this simple procedure enables doctors to look at cells from the cervix and identify cancerous or pre-cancerous cells). Regular, professional gynecological examinations remain the most effective way to prevent invasive cervical cancer.

     Extractions: Normally the cervix has stopped growing by puberty, but it's cells will continue to divide to replace those that die of injury or old age. While some division of cervical cells to replace old or injured ones is normal, it is a tightly controlled process. Sometimes a abnormal cell may arise which divides out of control. This will then form a tumor . A tumor is simply a swelling, and does not necessarily mean cancer (obviously most swellings are not cancerous). If a tumor only grows in it's local area, it is called "benign" and is not cancer. If, however, it has the capability to spread to other areas of the body, then it is called "malignant" and is cancer. Cervical cancer starts in just one single cell , but this cell quickly divides to form many similar cancer cells, which each continue to grow. Eventually, if not cured, these cells push the normal cells out of the way, grow a large tumor, and spread to other body areas to ultimately kill the patient. Cervical cancer kills by anemia, infection, blockage of kidney drainage ("uremia") and general disability.
