VIN, CIN, and VAIN are all graded similarly, I-III. What are I, II, and III characterized by?
Definition
I. lower third shows atypia. II. middle third shows atypia. III. full thickness atypia.
Term
1. classic VIN gives rise to...
2. differentiated VIN gives rise to...
Definition
1. classic -> invasive basaloid or warty carcinoma

Definition
ovaries or Fallopian tube
Term
[image] diagnosis?
Definition
endometriosis in ovaries (chocolate cyst)
Term
what theories are proposed for the pathogenesis of endometriosis?
Definition
retrograde menstruation (metastatic), peritoneal metaplasia to endometrial tissue, or vessels/lymphatics deposit endometrial tissue to ectopic sites
Term
enlarged, globular uterus; pt presents with pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia; dx?

Definition
endometrial stromal tumors
Term
diagnostic criteria for a MMMT
Definition
MMMT = Malignant Mixed Mullerian Tumor = carcinosarcoma; requires both atypia of epithelia and stroma.
Term
2 types of MMMT
