Endometrial adenocarsinoma
HEALTH HISTORY

A. Past Medical History


Three months prior to admission, patient had vaginal bleeding for 7 days, 2 times
in one month with 1 week interval accompanied by hypogastric pain

Two months prior to admission, patient had another episode consult to the OB
Gyne when curettage done revealed Endometrial Adenocarsinoma referred hence
admitted for TAHBSO with BLND

B. Present Medical History


In regards to her current illness, Ms. M had noticed that she had begun having
vaginal bleeding for about a year. She asked neighbors and friends about this, and
because they had told her it was a normal occurrence which may happen as a result of
menopause, she sought no further treatment. The bleeding, she explained to student
nurses, was not painful, so she believed that it was not really a concern. After telling her
children about her condition, her daughter kept insisting that she seek medical advice,
however, she refused because of the high costs which comes from hospitalization. After
sometime, the bleeding began to increase, and the patient finally listened to the advice of
her children.
Brief Description of the Disease

A Myoma is a solid tumor made of fibrous tissue, hence it is often called a 'fibroid'
tumor. Myomas vary in size and number, are most often slow-growing and usually cause no
symptoms. Myomas that do not produce symptoms do not need to be treated. Approximately
25% of myomas will cause symptoms and need medical treatment.

Myomas may grow as a single nodule or in clusters and may range in size from 1 mm to
more than 20 cm in diameter. Myomas are the most frequently diagnosed tumor of the female
pelvis and the most common reason for a woman to have a hysterectomy. Although they are
often referred to as tumors, they are not cancerous.

The cause of myomas has not actually been determined, but most myomas develop in
women during their reproductive years. Myomas do not develop before the body begins
producing estrogen. Myomas tend to grow very quickly during pregnancy when the body is
producing extra estrogen. Once menopause has begun, myomas generally stop growing and can
begin to shrink due to the loss of estrogen.

Until recently, hysterectomy was the preferred option for treating symptomatic fibroids.
Now, however, there are a number of uterine fibroid treatments including the noninvasive,
outpatientMR guided Focused Ultrasound myoma treatment.

Anatomy and Physiology

The female reproductive system


consists of the ovaries, uterine
tubes (or fallopian tubes), uterus,
vagina, external genitalia, and
mammary glands. The internal
reproductive organs of the female
are located within the pelvis,
between the urinary bladder and
the rectum. The uterus and the
vagina are in the midline , with an
ovary to each side of the organ.
The internal reproductive organs
are held in place within the pelvis
with ligaments. The most
conspicuous is the brad ligament,
which spreads out on both sides
of the uterus and to which the ovaries and the uterine tubes attach.

Ovaries
The two ovaries are small organs suspended in the pelvic cavity by ligaments. The
suspensory ligament extends from each ovary to the lateral body wall, and the ovarian ligament
attaches the ovary to the superior margin of the uterus. In addition, the ovaries are attached to the
posterior surface of the broad ligament by folds of the peritoneum called the mesovarium. The
ovarian arteries, veins, and nerves transverse the suspensory ligament and enter the ovary
through the mesovarium.

A layer of visceral peritoneum covers the surface of the ovary. The outer part of the
ovary is made up of dense connective tissue and contains the ovarian follicles. Each of the
ovarian follicles contains an oocyte, the female sex cell. Loose connective tissue makes up the
inner part of the ovary, where blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves are located.

Uterine Tubes
A uterine tube, fallopian tube, or oviduct (named after the italian anatomist, Gabriele
Fallopio) is associated with each ovary. The uterine tubes extend from the area of the ovaries to
the uterus. The open directly into the peritoneal cavity near each ovary and receive an oocyte.
The opening of each uterine tube is surrounded by long, thin processes called fimbriae.
The fimbriae nearly surround the surface of the ovary. As a result, as soon as the oocyte
is ovulated, it comes into contact with the surface of the fimbriae. Cilia on the fimbriae surface
sweep the oocyte into the uterine tube. Fertilization usually occurs in the part of the uterine tube
near the ovary known as the ampulla.

Uterus
The uterus is as big as the size of a medium-sized pear. It is oriented in the pelvic cavity
with the larger, rounded portion directed superiorly. The part of the uterus superior to the
entrance of the fallopian tubes is called the fundus. The main part of the uterus is called the body,
and the narrower part is termed the cervix and is directed inferiorly. Internally, the uterine cavity
in the fundus and uterine body continues through the cervix as the cervical canal, which opens
into the vagina. The cervical canal is lined by mucous glands.

The Uterine wall is composed of three layers: a serous layer or perimetrium of the uterus,
consists of smooth muscle is quite thick and accounts for the bulk of the uterine wall. The inner
most layer of the uterus is called the endometrium. The endometrium consists of simple
columnar epithelium tissues with an underlying connective tissue layer. Simple tubular glands,
called enometrial glands, are formed by folds of the endometrium. The superficial part os the
endometrium is sloughed off during menstruation.

The uterus is supported by the broad ligament and the round ligament. In addition to
these ligaments that support the uterus, much support is provided inferiourly to the uterus by
skeletal muscles of the pelvic floor. If ligaments that suppor the uterus or the muscles of the
pelvic floor are weakened such as in childbirth, the uterus can extend inferiorly into the vagina, a
condition termed as a prolapsed uterus. Severe cases require surgical correction.

Vagina
The vagina is the female organ of copulation and functions to receive the penis during
intercourse. It also allows menstrual flow and childbirth. The vagina extends from the uterus to
outside the body. The superior portion of the vagina is attached to the sides of the cervix so that a
part of the cervix extends into the vagina.

The wall of the vagina consists of an outer muscular layer and an inner mucous layer.
The muscular layer is smooth muscle and contains many elastic fibers. Thus the vagina can
increase in size to accommodate the penis during intercourse, and it can stretch greatly during
childbirth. The mucous membrane is moist stratified squamous epitheliam that forms a protective
surface layer. Lubricating fluid passes through the vaginal epithelium into the vagina.
In young females, the vaginal opening is covered by a thin mucous membrane known as the
hymen. The hymen can completely close the vaginal oriface in which case it must be removed to
allow menstrual flow. More commonly, the hymen is perforated by one or several holes. The
openings of the hymen are usually greatly enlarged during the first sexual intercourse. The
hymen can also be perforated during a variety of activities including strenuous exercise. The
condition of the hymen is therefore not a reliable indicator of virginity.

The External Genitalia


The external female genitalia, also called the vulva, or pudendum, consists of the
vestibule and its surrounding structures. The vestibule is the space into which the vagina and
urethra open. The urethra opens just anterior to the vagina. The vestibule is bordered by a pair of
thin, longitudinal skin folds called the labia minora. A small erectile structure called the clitoris
is located in the anterior margin of the vestibule. The two labia minora unite over the clitoris to
form a fold of skin known as the prepuce.

The clitoris consists of a shaft and a distal glans. Like the glans penis, the clitoris is well
supplied with sensory receptors, and it is made up of erectile tissue. An additional erectile tissue
is located on either side of the vaginal opening.
On each side of the vestibule, between the vaginal opening and the labia minora, are openings of
the greater vestibular glands. These glands produce a lubricating fluid that helps maintin the
moistness of the vestibule.

Lateral to the labia minor are two prominent rounded folds of skin called the labia
majora. The two labia majora unite anteriorly at the elevation of tissue over thepubic symphysis
calle dthe mons pubis. The lateral surfaces of the labia majora and the surface of the mons pubis
are covered with coarse hair. The medial surfaces of the labia minora are covered with numerous
sebaceous and sweat glands. The space between the labia minor is called the pudendal cleft.
Most of the time, the labia minora are in contact with each other across the midline , closing the
pudendal cleft and covering the deeper structures within the vestibule.

The region between the vagina and the anus is the clinical perineum. The skin and muscle
of this region can tear during childbirth. To preven such tearing, an incision called an episiotomy
is sometimes made in the clinical perineum. Traditionally, this clean, straight incision is thought
to result in less injury, and less trouble in healing, and less pain. However, many studies indicate
that there is less injury and pain when no episiotomy is performed.
