What does the term "malignant PC tumor" refer to?

Update Date: Source: Network

Malignant PC tumor refers to the occurrence of malignant tumor in the cervix, which may be cervical cancer. HPV examination can be used to determine whether a patient has cervical cancer. When this disease occurs, surgery can be used for treatment. Cervical cancer is mainly caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and can be controlled and treated in the early stage.

1. Malignant tumors can be histologically divided into two categories: one category is cancer, which occurs due to the malignant transformation of epithelial cells. For example, when the lung epithelial cells become malignant, lung cancer will develop. When the stomach epithelial cells become malignant, gastric cancer will develop, and so on.

2. The other category is sarcoma, which occurs due to the malignant transformation of mesenchymal tissue, such as leiomyosarcoma and fibrosarcoma. People often hear more about cancer than sarcoma, which is related to the fact that there are far more cancer patients than sarcoma patients. The ratio of cancer to sarcoma in clinical practice is approximately 9:1.

3. Curative surgery refers to the surgical removal of the entire tumor and most or all of the organ or tissue where it is located. If necessary, the lymph nodes around the site will also be removed in a block, which is known as radical surgery. For example, radical mastectomy involves the removal of the entire breast, pectoralis major, pectoralis minor, and the fatty and lymphatic tissues under the arm. This method can also be used for rectal cancer, cervical cancer, and head and neck tumors.
