Abstract:

Cervical cancer is one of the most common oncological diseases among women. If this disease is not detected in the early stages, it can have serious health consequences. In this article, we will look at what cervical cancer is, the symptoms to look out for, what discharge may occur with this disease, and how to prevent it. This article covers the pathoanatomical and morphological features of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is a malignant tumor that develops from the cells of the cervix. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus, which connects it to the vagina. Most cases of cervical cancer are associated with infection with human papillomavirus (HPV), especially its oncogenic types. The development of the disease can last for years and may begin with cancerous changes detected during routine examinations. The study focuses on the stages of development of this disease, histological types (mainly squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma), and their microscopic and macroscopic signs. Pathoanatomically, the changes that the tumor process causes in the tissues of the cervix, its invasion of surrounding tissues, and the characteristics of metastasis were analyzed on a scientific basis. The possibility of determining the extent and prognosis of the disease through morphological manifestations was assessed. Research on this topic will serve to improve the diagnostic and treatment process of cervical cancer.
