  • Solitary or multiple benign hepatic vascular tumors, usually occurring in women of 20-50 years of age. (lookformedical.com)
  • A benign tumor that arises from glandular epithelial cells. (amboss.com)
  • These findings correlate with the diagnosis of vulvar lichen planus. (bvsalud.org)
  • An increase in the number of cells in a tissue or organ without tumor formation. (lookformedical.com)
  • Conclusions: Chronic vulvar purpura is a clinical term used for different chronic inflammatory dermatoses presenting as red bluish or violaceous discolorations on the vulva, often associated with cayenne-pepper-like speckling. (bvsalud.org)
  • Chronic vulvar purpura is a rare entity, associated with a broad morphological spectrum, from lichen aureus, Zoon's vulvitis, pigmented purpuric dermatosis and with lichen planus as in our case. (bvsalud.org)
  • Anal cancer research has adopted terminology that mirrors the grading of cervical dysplasia (ie, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades I, II, and III). (medscape.com)
  • Anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN) grade I is low-grade dysplasia (LGAIN), while AIN-II and AIN-III are high-grade dysplasia (HGAIN), which is then thought to progress to invasive cancer, as in the cervical model. (medscape.com)

  • The pattern-based (Silva) classification of invasive HPV-associated endocervical adenocarcinomas (HPVA) is an established and reproducible method to predict outcomes for this otherwise stage-dependent group of tumors. (stanford.edu)
  • APOBEC mutational signature was detected only in Silva pattern C tumors (5/17), and pathogenic PIK3CA changes were detected only in destructively invasive HPVA (patterns B and C). When cases were grouped as low-risk (pattern A and pattern B without LVI) and high-risk (pattern B with LVI and pattern C), high-risk tumors were enriched in mutations in PIK3CA, ATRX, and ERBB2. (stanford.edu)
  • CNA burden increased from pattern A to C.Our findings further indicate that key molecular events in HPVA correlate with the morphologic invasive properties of the tumor and their aggressiveness. (stanford.edu)
  • This type of neoplasm is common in patients with advanced age, being sufficiently uncommon in children and diagnosied in advanced periods of training already, presenting one worse prognostic and supervened tax of below five year. (rmmg.org)
  • In both diseases, HPV-related inflammation leads to dysplasia and progression to cancer. (medscape.com)
  • To our knowledge this is the first reported case of an isolated vesicocutaneous fistula related to previous radiation therapy for recurrent vulvar cancer. (annals.edu.sg)
