Acutely, cervical erosion is seen; cryocauterization and antibiotic treatment may be indicated: cervicitis 8. Postmenopausal bleeding in the most common symptom; hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy can be curative if malignancy is confined to the uterus: carcinoma of the endometrium 9. Teratomas can occur within these sacs, which are sometimes dermoid cysts: ovarian cyst 10.Invasive ductal carcinoma and lobular and medullary carcinoma are types of this condition: carcinoma of the breast PRACTICAL APPLICATION – FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Operative Report: Preoperative Diagnosis: Menorrhagia, leiomyomata Anesthetic: General Material forwarded to Laboratory for examination: Endocervical curettings; endometrial curettings Operation Performed: Dilation and Curettage of the Uterus With the patient in the dorsal lithotomy position (legs are flexed on the thighs, thighs flexed on the abdomen and abducted) and sterilely prepped and draped, manual examination of the uterus revealed it to be 6- to 8-week size, retroflexed; no adnexal masses noted. The anterior lip of the cervix was then grasped with a tenaculum (hook-like surgical instrument for grasping and holding parts). The cervix was dilated up to a #20 Hank dilator. The uterus was sounded (widened) up to 4 inches. A sharp curettage of the endocervix showed only a scant amount of tissue. With a sharp curettage, the uterus was curetted in a clockwise fashion with an irregularity noted in the posterior floor. A large amount of hyperplastic endometrial tissue was removed. The patient tolerated the procedure well. Operative diagnosis: Leiomyomata uteri Indicate the appropriate answer for the questions below as related to the case: 6 1. The preoperative diagnosis indicated: a. Excessive bleeding between menstrual periods b. Possibility of malignancy in the uterine lining c. Fibroids and excessive bleeding during menstruation d. Pelvic inflammatory disease 2. The operation described is: a. Scraping and burning the lining of the uterus b. Surgical removal of a malignant tumor c. Freezing and aspirating tissue from the cervix and uterus d. Widening the cervix and scraping the lining of the uterus 3. What materials were sent to the laboratory for analysis? a. Tissue samples from vaginal and perineal region b. Cervical and uterine tissue samples c. Ovarian and abdominal tissue d. Uterine and ovarian tissue 4. What were the characteristics of the uterus upon examination by hand? a. Bent forward and prepregnancy size b. Bent backward and early pregnancy size c. Narrowed and bent forward d. Filled with hyperplastic tissue 5. An adnexal mass would be located in the: a. Uterus b. Vagina c. Cervix d. Ovaries and/or fallopian tubes 6. The diagnosis following the operative procedure indicated: a. Endometriosis b. Endocervicitis and endometritis c. Benign growths in the uterus d. Malignant fibroid tumors 7
