High frequency of loss of heterozygosity in vulval intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) is associated with invasive vulval squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC).
Vulval intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) is thought to be the premalignant phase of human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated vulval squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC). Various molecular events have been suggested as markers for progression from VIN to VSCC, but loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in vulval neoplasia has rarely been studied in this context. We performed LOH analysis by polymerase chain reaction...
متن کاملAKT1 Loss Correlates with Episomal HPV16 in Vulval Intraepithelial Neoplasia
Anogenital malignancy has a significant association with high-risk mucosal alpha-human papillomaviruses (alpha-PV), particularly HPV 16 and 18 whereas extragenital SCC has been linked to the presence of cutaneous beta and gamma-HPV types. Vulval skin may be colonised by both mucosal and cutaneous (beta-, mu-, nu- and gamma-) PV types, but there are few systematic studies investigating their pre...
متن کاملActivity, safety, and feasibility of cidofovir and imiquimod for treatment of vulval intraepithelial neoplasia (RT³VIN): a multicentre, open-label, randomised, phase 2 trial.
BACKGROUND Vulval intraepithelial neoplasia is a skin disorder affecting the vulva that, if left untreated, can become cancerous. Currently, the standard treatment for patients with vulval intraepithelial neoplasia is surgery, but this approach does not guarantee cure and can be disfiguring, causing physical and psychological problems, particularly in women of reproductive age. We aimed to asse...
متن کاملThe chromosomes of human intraepithelial neoplasia: report of 14 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and review.
Chromosome counts and karyotypes were prepared from samples of dysplasia and carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix in 14 patients with the use of tissue culture technics. The material for initial culture was identified as neoplastic epithelium in vivo by colpomicroscopy. Then a biopsy was obtained from within this area; one half was fixed for histologie examination, and in the remaining half,...
متن کاملVulval Elephantiasis: A Case Report
Introduction. Elephantiasis is a chronic manifestation of filariasis; it commonly affects limbs, scrotum, and trunk. Females have lower incidence of filarial infection. Vulval elephantiasis due to filariasis is still rarer. It is difficult to make the diagnosis on histopathology alone, more so in view of the fact that the parasite is usually not identified in tissue sections. Identification of ...
