Mammography in women less than 40 years of age 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Carcinoma of the breast in women less than 40 years old is a significant problem, representing 7.4 per cent of the total number of carcinomas of the breast at our institution. It is apparent that mammography in this age group is of value in confirming the clinical suspicion of a malignant condition of the breast and in evaluating the remainder of the parenchyma of the breast for clinically occult lesions. However, one cannot over emphasize that a negative result from the mammogram should not delay biopsy in the presence of clinically suspicious lesions (1, 4). It is obvious that a larger series of patients is necessary to define the role of mammography in "young women." 相似文献

The results of a retrospective study of 74 women under the age of 35, treated invasive cervical cancer, stage I and stage II, between 1973 and 1985, were compared with those obtained in 547 women over 35, treated during the same period of time for a similar cervical cancer. The treatment consisted of: association radium therapy-surgery for stages IB less than 25 mm and II A moderately extended and an association radiotherapy-radium therapy for stages IB greater than 25 mm and II A extended, II B and II C. A better distribution per stage is found in women under 35, identical regarding the histological type with 5-year survival identical in both groups at the same stage. Relapses or recurrences occur much earlier in younger women. In the literature, the age as a prognosis factor is very much controverted. On the contrary, other factors should be taken into consideration: clinical stage, node invasion, size and volume of the tumor, depth of infiltration of the cervix. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the frequency of mismatch repair deficiencies associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, or Lynch syndrome, in women less than age 50 with endometrial cancer. METHODS: Consecutive patients less than age 50 diagnosed with endometrial adenocarcinoma were identified. Available pathologic specimens were freshly sliced, and protein expression for MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Slides were scored on a semiquantitative method with complete absence of any of the four proteins suggesting a deficiency. All results were confirmed by microsatellite instability testing. RESULTS: Sixty-one pathology specimens were analyzed. Twenty-one (34%) of the tumors had absence of staining of at least one of the four mismatch repair proteins determined by immunohistochemistry and confirmed by microsatellite instability testing. Obese patients were less likely than nonobese patients to have a mismatch repair deficiency (21% versus 59%, respectively). Non-obese patients had a relative risk for a mismatch repair deficiency of 5.5 (95% confidence interval 1.6-19.1; P=.01). CONCLUSION: Many women diagnosed with endometrial cancer before age 50 will have a mismatch repair deficiency discovered by immunohistochemistry and microsatellite instability testing. A number of young women diagnosed with endometrial cancer will require further genetic testing for mismatch repair mutations. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III. 相似文献

Forty-five pregnant childless women with a mean age of 36.6 years (+/- 1.7) were compared with 42 nulliparous pregnant women with a mean age of 26.7 years (+/- 2.8). Initial interviews determined the basic demographic data, the reasons for delaying pregnancy, attitudes to pregnancy, and plans concerning careers. Psychological tests were given to measure anxiety, depression, anger, marital intimacy, sense of autonomy, and role expectations. These psychological tests were applied to all patients at 12 to 16 weeks' gestation and again at 28 to 32 weeks' gestation. The demographic information from the two groups was remarkably similar. Although their ages differed by 10 years, their career goals, their family incomes, reasons for delaying pregnancy, and reasons for now getting pregnant revealed minimal differences. The Maffer Feminine Identity Scale revealed that the younger women held more traditional attitudes toward a woman's roles than the older group. The Sociotrophy-Autonomy Scale indicated that the older women were more independent than the younger pregnant patients. The Symptom Checklist indicated that the older group were less troubled by pregnancy than the control group, and although their level of distress increased as the pregnancy progressed, they remained better adjusted as they entered the last trimester of their pregnancies. 相似文献

Gynecologic malignancies in women aged less than 25 years 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

OBJECTIVE: To describe the epidemiologic characteristics of gynecologic malignancies in patients 25 years of age or younger. METHODS: The Automated Central Tumor Registry (ACTUR), the cancer registry for the Department of Defense, was used to identify children, adolescents, and young adults diagnosed with gynecologic malignancies. Specifically, primary ovarian, uterine, cervical, vaginal, and vulvar malignancies diagnosed between 1990 and 2002 were included in the analysis. Data from the Department of Defense tumor registry were then compared with results obtained from the national Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Report (SEER) program database. RESULTS: Two hundred fifty-one cases were identified in the Department of Defense tumor registry. The most common primary site was ovary, with 116 cases (46%), followed by cervix, with 108 cases (43%). The most common histological types were germ cell (35%) for ovary, squamous cell (52%) for cervix, choriocarcinoma (18%) for uterus, and squamous cell (30%) for vulva/vagina. The 21- to 25-year-old age group had the greatest number of cases for the entire cohort (23%). Most patients had only local disease at time of diagnosis, and the 5-year survival percentage was 86% (95% confidence interval 80-91) for all patients with ovarian and cervical carcinoma. Data from the SEER program demonstrated a similar distribution and incidence pattern. CONCLUSION: The ovary and cervix are the most common primary sites of gynecologic malignancies in patients 25 years of age or younger. Health maintenance programs for patients in this age group should continue to include pelvic exams and Pap test screening. 相似文献

Changes in cervical cancer incidence after three decades of screening US women less than 30 years old 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
OBJECTIVE: To examine incidence trends of invasive cervical carcinoma in US women less than 30 years old from 1973 to 1999 by histologic type. METHODS: Incidence rates were obtained from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database and stratified by age and three histologic categories: all histologic types, squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma. The estimated annual percent change was calculated by joinpoint regression to measure trends during the entire evaluation period and a recent subperiod (1985-1999). All statistical tests were two-sided. RESULTS: Incidence rates of cervical carcinoma overall and squamous cell carcinoma specifically declined during 1973-1999, with estimated annual percent changes of -0.94% (95% confidence interval [CI] -1.47%, -0.41%) and -1.10% (95% CI -1.59%, -0.62%), respectively. Rates of adenocarcinoma increased (+2.90%; 95% CI 1.34%, 4.49%), though trends have been stable since 1990. All cancers were uncommon: the annual incidence per million women ranged from 8.0 to 14.3 for squamous cell carcinoma and from 0.7 to 2.7 for adenocarcinoma. For women younger than 20 years, no statistically significant changes were observed, but cancers were rare (0-3 per million women annually). CONCLUSIONS: More investigation is necessary to clarify the contribution of screening to declines in the squamous cell carcinoma rate and to determine the etiology of adenocarcinoma rate increases over the last three decades in US women less than 30 years old. Because of the small number of actual observed cases, caution must be exercised in interpreting these trends. 相似文献

Obstetric risks of pregnancy in women less than 18 years old 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
OBJECTIVE: To quantify the age-related risks of adverse outcome during pregnancy in women less than 18 years old. METHODS: We analyzed data from 341,708 completed singleton pregnancies in the North West Thames region between 1988 and 1997. Pregnancy outcomes were compared by age at delivery in women less than 18 years old (n = 5246) and 18-34 years old (n = 336,462); women 35 years old or older (n = 48,658) were excluded. Data are presented as percentages of women less than 18 and 18-34-year-old women, with adjusted odds ratios (OR) and 99% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: Pregnancy in women less than 18 years old was associated with increased risk of preterm labor before 32 weeks' gestation (OR 1.41, CI 1.02, 1.90), maternal anemia (OR 1.82, CI 1.63, 2.03), chest infection (OR 2.70, CI 1.21, 6.70), and urinary tract infection (OR 1.60, CI 1.11, 2.31), but less obstetric intervention. Operative vaginal delivery (OR 0. 46, CI 0.41, 0.56), elective cesarean (OR 0.47, CI 0.35, 0.65), or emergency cesarean (OR 0.45, CI 0.38, 0.53) were all less likely in women aged less than 18 years. Women less than 18 years old were no more likely to have stillbirths (OR 0.75, CI 0.42, 1.34) or small-for-gestational-age infants (OR 0.95, CI 0.82, 1.09) than women aged 18-34 years. CONCLUSION: Pregnant women less than 18 years old were more likely to deliver preterm than older women. In most other respects they have less maternal and perinatal morbidity and were more likely to have normal vaginal deliveries. 相似文献

Invasive cervical squamous cell carcinoma was diagnosed in 45 patients less than 35 years old from 1980 to 1985. Thirty-two cases were Stage IB; 10, Stage IIB; and three, Stage IIIB. Twenty-two patients developed persistent or recurrent disease. Only one of these is now alive with no evidence of tumor. The mean interval from diagnosis to recurrence was 8.7 months (median of 7.0) and from diagnosis to death was 14.7 months (median of 12.0). Eleven of 32 patients with Stage IB disease developed a recurrence; the intervals to recurrence in Stage IB disease were similar to those for more advanced stages. Factors predicting recurrence included advanced stage of the disease and tumor bulk (maximum size, depth of invasion, and number of involved quadrants) as well as an exophytic or ulcerative tumor and a symptomatic presentation. These factors may identify the patient at high risk for recurrence who would benefit from adjuvant therapy. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to examine the cost-effectiveness and procedural-related losses associated with 5 prenatal screening strategies for fetal aneuploidy in women under 35 years old. STUDY DESIGN: Five prenatal screening strategies were compared in a decision analysis model: triple screen: maternal age and midtrimester serum alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and unconjugated estriol; quad screen: triple screen plus serum dimeric inhibin A; first-trimester screen: maternal age, serum pregnancy-associated plasma protein A and free beta-hCG and fetal nuchal translucency at 10 to 14 weeks' gestation; integrated screen: first-trimester screen plus quad screen, but first-trimester results are withheld until the quad screen is completed when a composite result is provided; sequential screen: first-trimester screen plus quad screen, but the first-trimester screen results are provided immediately and prenatal diagnosis offered if positive; later prenatal diagnosis is available if the quad screen is positive. Model estimates were literature derived, and cost estimates also included local sources. The 5 strategies were compared for cost, the numbers of Down syndrome fetuses detected and live births averted, and the number of procedure-related euploid losses. Sensitivity analyses were performed for parameters with imprecise point estimates. RESULTS: In the baseline analysis, sequential screening was the least expensive strategy ($455 million). It detected the most Down syndrome fetuses (n=1213), averted the most Down syndrome live births (n=678), but led to the highest number of procedure-related euploid losses (n=859). The integrated screen had the fewest euploid losses (n=62) and averted the second most Down syndrome live births (n=520). If fewer than 70% of women diagnosed with fetal Down syndrome elect to abort, the quad screen became the least expensive strategy. CONCLUSION: Although sequential screening was the most cost-effective prenatal screening strategy for fetal trisomy 21, it had the highest procedure-related euploid loss rate. The patient's perspective on detection versus fetal safety may help define the optimal screening strategy. 相似文献

From 1962 to 1988, 50 of 801 patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon and rectum treated at the National Naval Medical Center were less than 40 years old. Symptoms were present in 47 of the younger patients at presentation. The mean duration of time from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis in this group was 4.9 months. Risk factors for carcinoma of the colon and rectum were identified in 14 of 50 patients less than 40 years old. A significantly greater proportion of patients less than 40 years old had Stage C disease compared with the older group of patients (42 versus 22 per cent, p = 0.014). Stage B disease was more common in patients more than 40 years of age (44.8 versus 26.0 per cent, p = 0.014). The proportion of patients with Stages A and D disease was similar in both age groups. The cumulative survival rate in this group at five and ten years was 43 and 34 per cent, respectively. The five year survival rate in patients less than 40 years old with Stage B disease was 76 per cent and with Stage C disease, 37 per cent. All young patients with Stage D disease were dead at 28 months. Synchronous and metachronous carcinomas of the colon and rectum were uncommon in patients less than 40 years old. Patients less than 40 years of age with carcinoma of the colon and rectum are usually symptomatic and have advanced disease at the time of presentation. Survival time for these patients for each stage of disease is similar to the over-all population of patients with carcinoma of the colon and rectum. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The present study was designed to determine the prevalence of factor V Leiden (FVL), prothrombin gene G20210A (PTG) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR C677T) mutations in women from South-Western Greece with recurrent fetal loss (RFL) and negative personal thromboembolic history. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 212 women with RFL and 181 women with at least two pregnancies with normal outcome and no history of pregnancy loss were investigated for the commonest thrombophilic mutations (FVL, PTG, MTHFR C677T). Comparisons between groups were performed by Pearson's chi-square test and odd ratios were calculated. RESULTS: An abnormal genotype was detected in 49 women of the study group (23.1%) and in 41 women of the control group (22.6%). CONCLUSION: Inherited thrombophilia screening is not indicated as an initial approach in Greek women with RFL and negative personal thromboembolic history. 相似文献
