Topic: Neoplasia



  
 The Body: Anal Neoplasia
Various techniques for screening and treating anal neoplasia and cancer have been identified and can be readily implemented.
In the absence of large-scale natural history studies of AIN, experts have often deduced from what is known of CIN and applied cervical neoplasia data cautiously to the study and treatment of anal neoplasia.
It is incumbent upon persons in high-risk groups to strongly request that they be evaluated and to encourage their health-care providers to attend training sessions to become proficient in screening and treatment modalities.

 IJ TRANSGENDER - Vaginal Neoplasia in a Male-to-Female Transsexual: Case Report, Review of the Literature, and ...
The glans appears to be more prone to carcinomatous change than the skin of the penile shaft, and intraepithelial neoplasia of the glans is more likely to progress to invasive carcinoma than is intraepithelial neoplasia of other penile skin.
This raises the question of whether the penile glans might have greater potential for the development of neovaginal carcinoma than other penile skin.
In 1997, a routine Papanicolaou smear taken from the neocervical area revealed changes typical of human papillomavirus (HPV), and vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia, grade I (VAIN I).

 SF AIDS Fdn: BETA 6/96 -- Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia
CIN is much more common than the other types of genital neoplasia in women with HIV.
A study at SFGH that involved both HIV positive and negative women found that 15% of the HIV positive women had "only vulvar, vaginal or perianal lesions that would not usually be detected with Pap smears" (Korn, 1994).
While the cervical Pap test is an important, sensitive and accurate tool for that purpose, significant neoplasias develop in extracervical genital regions as well.

The title Neoplasia was chosen to convey the journal's breadth, which encompasses the traditional disciplines of cancer research as well as emerging fields and interdisciplinary investigations.
Neoplasia is interested in studies describing new molecular and genetic findings relating to the neoplastic phenotype and in laboratory and clinical studies demonstrating creative applications of advances in the basic sciences to risk assessment, prognostic indications, detection, diagnosis, and treatment.
Neoplasia is committed to ensuring a thorough, fair, and rapid review and publication schedule to further its mission of serving both the scientific and clinical communities by disseminating important data and ideas in cancer research.

The assigned associated morphologic finding concept will convey the biologic behavior as to malignancy, benign, uncertain behavior or unclassified via inheritance through the morphology hierarchy.
General Approach: It is suggested that neoplasms be represented by post-coordination of the diagnosed neoplasia.
This post-coordination approach involves the use of the high level SNOMED disorder concept 'Neoplasm Disease' in combination with the appropriate associated morphology concept for the specific neoplasm and its finding site relevant to the case.

Early work centered on defining the roles of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human papillomavirus in AIDS-related lymphomas (see Clinical Presentation and Management of HIV-Related Lymphomas) and anogenital neoplasms (see Anogenital Neoplasia and HIV), respectively.
Although defects in immune surveillance might be expected to contribute powerfully to the risk of neoplastic disease, it has long been speculated that some of this increased cancer risk might be due to the enhanced acquisition of exogenous oncogenic pathogens.
Perhaps the most striking advances in this area, however, have come with the identification and propagation of HHV-8.

Among 6 studies of patients with symptoms or risk factors for neoplasia, the absolute risk of proximal neoplasia was 35% (95% CI, 32% to 39%) in persons with distal hyperplastic polyps.
In 2 studies of screening colonoscopy, advanced proximal neoplasia (cancer, or a polyp with villous histology or severe dysplasia, or a tubular adenoma >/=1 cm) was present in 4% to 5% of persons with distal hyperplastic polyps, which was 1.5 to 2.6 times greater than in those with no distal polyps.

 Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Syndromes: Merck Manual Home Edition
Multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes are rare conditions in which several endocrine glands develop noncancerous (benign) or cancerous (malignant) tumors or grow excessively without forming tumors.
These genetic tests permit earlier and more effective diagnosis and treatment in people who have a family history of multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes.
Because about half of the children of people with a multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome inherit the disease, screening is important for early diagnosis and treatment.
