Doubts & Debates on Debate 1:-“Correlation
of childbirth trauma with genesis of cervical erosion and later Ca Cx? Debate
2: How best to differentiate visually four almost similar clinical conditions
like 1) cervical erosion, 2) Cx ectropion, 3) Cx cancer & 4) chlamydial Cx
changes??
Why this Question? Ans to first query?? Ans:-Bad or significant cervical erosions are seen in women who have had 1 or more normal deliveries. By contrast
Why this Question? Ans to first query?? Ans:-Bad or significant cervical erosions are seen in women who have had 1 or more normal deliveries. By contrast
Patients who
have undergone caesarean sections have smooth, pink and healthy cervix. Is that
your observation of members too? Does the wear and tear during delivery makes cervix
more prone to erosions.--> consequently Ca cervix??
Secondly does
caesarean protects against Ca cervix. Many clinicians have a feeling that found
erosions more common with vaginitis and discharge. Erosion are not related to with
LSCS or vaginal delivery as such
How to define Cx
erosion clinically?? Ans:-Cervical
ectropion is a condition where cells from inside the cervix (endocervical
canal) form a red, inflammed patch on the outside the cervix.
Q.2: What causes
cervical ectropion??
Q.3:- Does cervical erosion require treatment?
, cervical ectropion
is not usually a health concern.
Q.How a erosion or Ectropion deceives
a clinician?? Ans:-The way it looks, it can be hard to distinguish from
the early stages of cervical cancer. For
this reason, it is essential to understand the difference between the two
conditions.We the clinicians must, therefore explore & be aware of the causes, symptoms, and treatments for
cervical ectropion & erosion abd be aware of how these two clinical visual conditions differs
from Third visual abnormality cervical cancer and 4th visual abnormality of chlamydia.
What is cervical ectropion?
The cervix is the
narrow part of the uterus that joins the top of the vagina. Cervical
ectropion is a condition that affects cells in the cervix. Cervix has different
sorts of cells on the portio --outside (vaginal portion) than it does on the
inside (the cervical canal).
The soft cells on the
inside of the cervix(columnar Cells-glandular cells-not surface epithelial
cells) are known as glandular cells, but
the medical term for them is columnar epithelium. By contrast , the hard cells
on the outside of the cervix(portio) are
known as squamous epithelial
cells. Normally in healthy women only have glandular cells on the inside
of their cervix. By contrast, when the glandular cells appear on the outside of
the cervix we level it as Cervical ectropion .
What do we mean by
the transformation zone (TZ)?? The area on the outside of the cervix
where glandular cells come into contact with squamous epithelial (junctional
area between glandular cells) - is called the transformation zone or the
stratified squamous epithelium.
