20.500.12556/DiRROS-18664 Microinvasive cervical squamous cell carcinoma in Slovenia during the period 2001-2007 Background. Microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma (MISCC) comprises a significant portion of all cervical cancers in Slovenia. Criteria of carcinomatous invasion are well described in the literature, however histopathological assessment of MISCC is difficult, because morphological characteristics can overlap with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN 3) and other pathological changes. The aim of our study was to evaluate the reliability of the histopathological diagnosis of MISCC in Slovenia during the period from 2001 to 2007. Materials and methods. Data on patients with a histopathological diagnosis of cervical MISCC (FIGO stage IA) in the period of 2001 to 2007 were obtained from the Cancer Registry of Slovenia. Histological slides were obtained from the majority of pathology laboratories in Slovenia. We received 250 cases (69% of all MISCC) for the review; 30 control cases with CIN 3 and invasive squamous cell carcinoma FIGO stage IB were intermixed. The slides were coded and reviewed. Results. Among 250 cases originally diagnosed as MISCC, there was an agreement with MISCC diagnosis in 184 (73.6%) cases (of these 179/184 (97.3%) cases were FIGO stage IA1 and 5/184 (2.7%) cases were FIGO stage IA2). Among 179 FIGO stage IA1 cases 117 (65.4%) showed only early stromal invasion. Conclusions. The retrospective review of cases diagnosed as MISCC during the period 2001- 2007 in Slovenia showed a considerable number of overdiagnosed cases. Amongst cases with MISCC confirmed on review, there was a significant proportion with early stromal invasion (depth of invasion less than 1 mm). cervical cancer cervical squamous cell carcinoma microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma intraepithelial neoplasia maternični vrat rak (medicina) ploščatocelični rak mikroinvazivni ploščatocelični rak intraepitelijska neoplazija true false true Association of Radiology and Oncology Ljubljana Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik by Authors Neznano 2024-04-11 12:29:00 2024-04-11 12:29:00 2024-04-12 03:37:21 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2014 0 0 str. 282-288, IV no. 3 Vol. 48 Sep. 2014 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2014-09-01 618.146-006.6 1318-2099 10.2478/raon-2014-0010 1789051 RAZ_Gutnik_Helena_2014.pdf RAZ_Gutnik_Helena_2014.pdf 1 DCC0B2194A8FAE97A4BDBF2283335480 eb7c86c952dadb3799e1026ffb8cf57d7eed7b3ed7dd000a06618a3f277426a5 b8656b9a-f7dd-11ee-ae20-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25497 Onkološki inštitut Ljubljana 0 0 0
