The mucosa of the uterine cervix is normally devoid of melanocytes; therefore, melanin-containing lesions are very rare in this site. A new case of a common blue nevus in the cervix of a 57-year-old woman is reported. The lesion was an incidental finding in a total hysterectomy specimen performed for atypical endometrial hyperplasia. Gross and histological examination revealed minute dark macula on the mucosa of the posterior aspect of the endocervical canal, composed of loose conglomerates of spindle-shaped and dendritic cells located superficially within the stroma, containing multiple brownish granules, which exhibited positive immunostaining for HMB45 and melan A. Although the blue nevi seem to be lesions of low clinical significance, they require careful differential diagnosis with malignant melanoma, especially in scanty endocervical curettage or cervical biopsy specimens.

Sebaceous glands have been extremely rare findings in the female genital system. Excluding the vulva and recent findings, very few cases have been described. The origin of the lesions remains a topic of speculation. However, it appears that prolonged irritation induces a metaplastic response in the ectocervical epithelium. A new case of sebaceous glands in the ectocervix of a 46-year-old woman is reported. The lesions were unexpectedly found in a hysterectomy specimen. The procedure was carried out for multiple leiomyomas of the uterine corpus. Histological examination revealed three mature sebaceous glands located distally to the transformation zone, which opened directly onto the surface epithelium. It could be concluded that sebaceous glands in the ectocervix are rare lesions of unclear origin and low clinical significance. However, the glands could potentially be associated with sebaceous carcinoma of that anatomical site. (Folia Morphol 2009; 68, 4: 287–289)
The experiment was performed on sexually mature female dogs. Operational procedures were performed according to classical surgical methods in general anaesthesia. The animals were kept alive for 21 days and subsequently put down and sectioned for the following material: the brain stem, the spinal cord with all the spinal ganglia, all the ganglia of the sympathetic trunk and the ganglia and plexuses of abdominal and pelvic cavities. The material was fixed in histological slides. The localization of retrograde changes, presented here, allows certification that the autonomic and afferent nerve fibres supplying the uterine cervix in the female dog originate from the central, as well as, from the peripheral autonomic nervous system.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of brachytherapy on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status in patients with uterine cervix cancer. The study was conducted on 84 uterine cervix cancer patients from the Brachytherapy Department of the Regional Centre of Oncology in Bydgoszcz. Patients with uterine cervix cancer were found to have elevated levels of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defence system impairment relative to healthy females. The results of the study indicate that brachytherapy has no direct effect on the antioxidant system of patients with uterine cervical carcinoma. However, the normalisation of catalase and glutathione peroxidase activity and erythrocyte TBARS level observed six months after the end of therapy may be due to the arrest of the progression of the disease.
Objectives: Molecular mechanism of carcinogenesis associated with high risk (HR) type HPV is related to the activity of virus oncoproteins E5, E6 and E7. Their task is to bring the cells to a state enabling synthesis of viral DNA, copying viral particles and promotion of uncontrolled cell growth. Proliferative factors of a feminine genital tract epithelium are also sex hormones — estradiol and progesterone. Steroids influence the transcription of genes involved in cell cycle, acting through specific nuclear receptors (ER and PR). The aim of this study was evaluation of the effect of selected concentrations of 17ß-estradiol and progesterone on survival and proliferation of HeLa line cells. Material and methods: The study was done on a transformed HeLa cell line containing integrated genome HPV of type 18. The lines were incubated in the presence of 17ß-estradiol at the concentrations of lx10-4M, lx10-5M, lx10-7M, lx10-8M. Cell survival was determined with the use of 0.5% of water solution of toluidine blue and the cell proliferation rate were evaluated with the use of BrdU Labelling and Detection Kit and the method ELISA (Roche). Results: The obtained results point to 10% toxic influence on HeLa line cells of 17ß-estradiol at high concentrations after 72 h of incubation. The influence of the hormone on proliferation rate was diversified depending on the hormone concentration and time.
