Usage of sentinel lymph-node (SLN) concept in locally advanced cervical cancers might help to individualise management. According to SLN status could be patients refered to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with subsequent surgery or to primary chemoradiation. The aim of our study was to evaluate sensitivity of SLN detection in locally advanced cervical cancers and to assess the impact of NAC on frequency of their metastatic involvement.Retrospective clinical study.Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital and 1st Medical Faculty, Charles University, Prague.Included were patients with cervical cancer stages FIGO IB1 (3 cm), IB2, IIA2 and selected cases of stages IIB with incipient parametrial involvement. Patients were distributed into two different protocols - patients in group NAC-SLN were refered to radical hysterectomy with SLN biopsy after 3 cycles of NAC, other patients (group SLN) underwent SLN biopsy and NAC was administered only in SLN-negative cases.Altogether 101 patients were included (group SLN = 62, group NAC-SLN = 39). Detection of SLN in whole cohort reached 90.1% per patient and 68.3% bilaterally. No differences were found between SLN group and NAC-SLN group in frequency of per patient SLN detection (90.3% vs 89.7%) and bilateral detection (69.4% vs 66.7%). Prevalence of macrometastases, micrometastases and ITC in the SLN group was 37.1% (23/62), 11.3% (7/62) and 8.1% (5/62), respectively. In the NAC-SLN group macrometastases in SLN were detected in 17.9% (7/39) patients, in 1 patient was detected micrometastis in SLN and no patient had ITC. Difference in frequency of metastases in SLN was significant (p = 0,013). No patient had progressed during NAC, complete response was seen in 15.1% (11/73) patients and reduction of tumour volume30% in 84.9% (62/73) patients.Detection of SLN in locally advanced cervical cancers reached comparable results to early stages. NAC did not influence frequency of SLN detection, but it significantly decreased prevalence of metastatic SLN involvement.

To analyze our experience with transperitoneal laparoscopic dissection of lymphatic nodes in women with gynecologic malignancies.Retrospective clinical study.Center of gynecologic endoscopy and minimally invasive surgery; Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital and 1st Medical Faculty in Prague.Analysis of data from our laparoscopic procedures in the years 2006-2011. The following procedures have been included: systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLN), paraaortic lymphadenectomy (PALN), pelvic sentinel node excision, focused dissection of bulky lymphatic nodes from pelvis or paraaortic area.We performed 177 primarily laparoscopic procedures pointed at dissection of pelvic and/or paraaortic lymph-nodes. The mean operating time and the mean number of lymph-nodes was 82 minutes and 26.5 nodes in patients with PLN, and 75 minutes and 12.5 nodes in patients with PALN. The overall rate of laparo-conversions was 4.5%; the incidence of major complications was 6.8% and of serious bleeding 5.6%. Laparoscopic lymphadenectomy could not be performed or completed in 2.3% of cases. Complications were more frequently associated with PALN than with PLN.Laparoscopic approach to PLN and PALN is feasible in vast majority of patients. It provides adequate earnings of the lymphatic nodes, tolerable operative time, and relatively low complication rate. The highly experienced operation team for especially high infrarenal PALN is necessary.

To present our experience with ultrasound-guided minimally invasive interventions in gynecologic oncology.Original paper.Oncogynecological Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Charles University in Prague - First Faculty of Medicine and General Faculty Hospital, Prague.We provide minimally invasive punction interventions under ultrasound guidance using either abdominal or vaginal probe in three indication groups - diagnostics (tru-cut biopsy), therapy (punction drainage of lymphocyst) and palliation (insertion of permanent peritoneal catheter).Ultrasound-guided minimally invasive interventions represent a group of accessible and relatively simple methods useful in many indications, not only in gynecologic oncology. Adoption of these methods allows to broadening the spectrum of interventions offered and decreasing patient's stress.

Analysis of genomic changes can help to define certain subtypes of BTO and, correlated to clinical characteristics, to identify subtypes with different biological behavior. Such molecular typing of BTO allows to individualize treatment.

The goal of this study was to compare the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)--a standard method--and transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) in the staging and determination of significant prognostic parameters in early-stage cervical cancer. The following prognostic parameters were evaluated: identification of residual tumor in the cervix after cone-biopsy, tumor volume, and early parametrial infiltration.Prospective study.Oncogynecological Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital of Charles University, Prague.Patients referred to Oncogynecological Center from January 2004 to February 2006, in whom early-stage cervical cancer (T1a1-T2a) was diagnosed by clinical examination, were prospectivelly enrolled in the study. Only those patients who were examined by both MRI and TRUS with following surgical treatment were included. Imaging results were compared with pathology findings.Data from 95 patients were evaluated. The accuracy of tumor detection in 95 patients was 93.7% for TRUS and 83.2% for MRI (Por = 0.006). In small tumors (or = 1 cm3), the accuracy of tumor detection by TRUS was 90.5% and 81.1% by MRI (Por = 0.049). The accuracy of parametrial infiltration detection by TRUS and MRI was 98.9% and 94.7%, respectively (Por = 0.219). The accuracy was not influenced by body mass index values.Our results show TRUS achieving comparable or even higher accuracy than the more commonly used MRI in staging of early-stage cervical cancer.

To characterize molecular pattern differences (LOH and expression) between DCIS and invasive breast cancer.Original paper.Oncogynecologic center, Clinic of Obstetrics and gynecology, First Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague and General Teaching Hospital, Prague.We analyzed LOH in 3 genes (BRCA1, BRCA2 and p53) and expression of 2 genes (VEGF and Bcl-2) in fresh frozen tissue samples of DCIS and invasive breast cancer. Each sample was evaluated by pathologist before sampling and analysis.Molecular pattern analysis was performed in three types of tissue: healthy breast gland (65 samples), DCIS (25 samples) and invasive breast cancer (42 samples). LOH in BRCA1 was detected in 22.3% of invasive cancer samples and in 13.4% of DCIS; BRCA2 LOH in 32.1% of invasive cancer samples and in 14.1% of DCIS; p53 LOH in 35.6% of invasive cancer samples and in 33.2% of DCIS. VEGF was overexpressed in 15.3% of invasive cancer samples and in 8.3% of DCIS. Overexpression of Bcl-2 was detected in 13.2% of invasive breast cancer samples and in 7.1% of DCIS.We confirmed that substantial part of DCIS has molecular pattern similar to invasive cancer. These molecular changes could serve as potential markers of DCIS progression to invasive cancer or they could identify subgroup of DCIS with latent invasion.

Information about new possibilities of early diagnostics in mammary lesions.Review.Gynecology-Obstetrics Clinic, 1st Medical Faculty and General Teaching Hospital, Prague.Most malignant tumors of the breast originate from ductal epithelium. A direct examination of the ductal system, could significantly improve diagnostics of breast cancer as well as its preinvasive stages (DCIS) and to influence mortality. The concept of ductal approaches includes several techniques and ductal lavage and duscoscopy.Ductal approaches represent an attractive area for minimal load upon the patients. Specificity and sensitivity of these methods have some limits, which will be subject to change in relation to understanding of carcinogenesis and in a close relation to the knowledge of biomarkers, genomics and proteomics. Ductoscopy appears to be the ideal method for the future due to possibilities of direct visualization of epithelium in combination with biopsy and ductal lavage. It other advantages include minimal invasiveness, minimal risk and the origin of possible complications for the patient.

Review of diagnostical and therapeutical methods in glandular premalignant lesions of the uterine cervix.Review article.Department of Obstetrics and Gyneacology, 1st Medical Faculty, Charles University and General Faculty Hospital, Prague.The incidence of invasive adenocarcinomas of the uterine cervix is increasing. Incidence ratio between adenocarcinomas and spinocellular carcinomas is approximately 1:5; however ratio of premalignant lesions reaches only about 1:80. Glandular premalignant disease is usually found in the specimen taken for squamous disease. The coincidence of both types of premalignant lesions, so called "mixed lesion", is revealed in about 46-72%. PAP-smear of AGC-NOS/-NEO or adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) in combination with typical colposcopic appearance raise a suspicion of glandular lesion. Direct biopsy must be always performed to get definite diagnosis. Optimum biopsy technique requires cylindrical excision. A woman can be carefully followed if desires pregnancy and specimen margins are negative. Hysterectomy is indicated if reproductive plans are completed.Diagnosis of glandular premalignat lesion of the uterine cervix is more complicated in comparison to spinocellular one, however it is getting more significant due to increasing incidence. Colposcopy and cytology are less reliable. Any suspicion on glandular premalignat leasion requires more active approach and radical procedure (hysterectomy) if possible.

This article reviews the topic of hereditary ovarian cancer, describes persons at risk of hereditary disposition to cancer and gives instructions for genetic counselling and molecular analysis, including contacts to specialized centres in the Czech Republic.Review.Institute of Biochemistry and Experimental Oncology, Charles University in Prague.Hereditary ovarian cancer occurs in three autosomal dominant syndromes: appropriate hereditary ovarian cancer (HOC), hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) and hereditary non-poliposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Physician in practice or specialist at the clinic should focus interest on patients form families with frequent occurrence of breast and/or ovarian cancer, patients with early onset disease or tumour duplicity (breast and ovarian cancer). Hereditary disposition to ovarian (and breast) cancer could be assessed by molecular genetic analysis of two main susceptibility genes BRCA1 and BRCA2, or other genes in families with diverse tumours. Molecular genetic analysis should be in any cases indicated by experienced clinical genetic. In the Czech Republic, the consensus of genetic and clinical care of risk patients was published and specialized centres for families with hereditary predisposition were settled in Prague and Brno.Persons with hereditary susceptibility to cancer constitute noted group where painstaking dispensarisation and preventive care may prevent malignancy or detect it in the early stage.

Evaluate technique, indications and limits of surgical procedure in the treatment of cervical cancer diagnosed from uterus specimen from simple hysterectomy.Retrospective observational study, review of literature.Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1st Medical Faculty and General Faculty Hospital, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic.Women following radical parametrectomy with upper vaginectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy were enrolled to the study. In all patients unexpected invasive cervical cancer was found from the uterus specimen after simple hysterectomy.Together 10 patients were enrolled to the study. CIN was the indication for primary hysterectomy in all but two patients. There were two operative complications, cystostomy in both cases, treated properly during surgery. In the specimen from radical procedure residual tumor in parametria was found in 2 cases, and metastasis to pelvic nodes in 4 cases. There was no postoperative complication. Adjuvant radiotherapy was recommended in 4 patients due to positive lymph nodes, in one case due to residual tumor in parametria, and in one case for both reasons.Radical parametrectomy with upper vaginectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy should be considered as an alternative solution in patients following simple hysterectomy with unexpected finding of invasive cervical cancer. Morbidity of the procedure is higher in comparison to standard radical hysterectomy, however majority of complications are easy to repair. The most significant criteria for patient's selection for surgical approach is a depth of invasion to cervical stroma. In our group radical procedure obviated the need for radiotherapy in half of the patients.

- Abstract
The majority of patients who suffer from an early-stage or advanced-stage of ovarian cancer complain about symptoms, mainly gastrointestinal ones. The pelvic examination in ovarian cancer detection is limited by the adnexal position in the pelvis and frequent extraovarian spread of disease. Recently, any reliable tumor biomarker (CA 125 and/or HE4), which can be used in differential diagnosis between benign and malignant ovarian tumors, does not exist. According the results of the largest multicenter International Ovarian Trial Analysis (IOTA), ultrasound if performed by an experienced sonologist is an ideal diagnostic method in differential diagnosis between benign and malignant ovarian tumors. The experienced examiner is also able to detect extraovarian tumor spread and to assess tumor operability. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used only to complement ultrasound in cases when high tissue resolution is needed. Computed tomography (CT) is a useful method for detection of extraovarian spread, especially in cases when an ultrasound examiner experienced in abdominal scanning is not available. Similarly, fusion of positron emission tomography with CT (PET/CT) is a highly accurate method for the detection of abdominal and extraabdominal tumor spread, but its use is limited by cost and the low availability of this method. On the other hand, PET/CT is not recommended for primary ovarian cancer detection because of its lower sensitivity in comparison to ultrasound and its high false positive rates as well.

Even there exist just limited studies dedicated to postsurgical sexual morbidity, it is conclusive in most of them, that surgical therapy for gynaecologic malignant tumours is connected with long-lasting anatomical and physiological changes, which can cause sexual dysfunctions in women. These are often complex and some of them last for more than two years after the operation. Well-timed sexuological counseling and openness of health care providers in sexual topics are very important parts of complex care of oncogynaecologic patients and their partners.

Objective: Survey of contraceptive behaviour and attitude of Czech women towards different types of contraception., Design: Representative survey., Methods: Anonymous questionnaire survey of the sample of 1011 Czech women aged from 15 to 50., Results: More than half of the women of our sample used some form of contraception during their first sexual intercourse. Most of the women used condom (41%), only a small part used hormonal contraception or withdrawal. Eighty percent of Czech women use some form of contraception with their stable partner, most often hormonal contraception (51%). One sixth of Czech women use condom. Using contraception is influenced mostly by age and religious belief: younger respondents show more responsible contraceptive behaviour at their first sexual intercourse, they use hormonal contraception with their stable partner more often. Furthermore, atheists protect themselves by some form of contraception more often than believers. The most used form is hormonal contraception., Conclusion: Czech women show responsible contraceptive behaviour during their heterosexual intercourse. There is a significant increase of using hormonal contraception.

The following prognostic parameters were evaluated: identification of residual tumor in the cervix after cone-biopsy, tumor volume, and early parametrial infiltration., Design: Prospective study., Setting: Oncogynecological Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital of Charles University, Prague., Methods: Patients referred to Oncogynecological Center from January 2004 to February 2006, in whom early-stage cervical cancer (T1a1-T2a) was diagnosed by clinical examination, were prospectivelly enrolled in the study. Only those patients who were examined by both MRI and TRUS with following surgical treatment were included. Imaging results were compared with pathology findings., Results: Data from 95 patients were evaluated. The accuracy of tumor detection in 95 patients was 93.7% for TRUS and 83.2% for MRI (P < or = 0.006). In small tumors (< or = 1 cm3), the accuracy of tumor detection by TRUS was 90.5% and 81.1% by MRI (P < or = 0.049). The accuracy of parametrial infiltration detection by TRUS and MRI was 98.9% and 94.7%, respectively (P < or = 0.219). The accuracy was not influenced by body mass index values., Conclusion: Our results show TRUS achieving comparable or even higher accuracy than the more commonly used MRI in staging of early-stage cervical cancer.

- Abstract
Objective: The goal of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and safety of ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy in advanced abdomino-pelvic tumors in a sufficiently large cohort., Design: Prospective study., Setting: Oncogynecological Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital of Charles University, Prague., Methods: Patients indicated for tru-cut biopsy were those with primarily inoperable tumors, with advanced tumors and compromised performance status preventing a primary surgical procedure, and with recurrent pelvic tumors requiring histological verification. All were referred to the Oncogynecological Center between January 2005 and June 2007. Tru-cut biopsy was taken either from pelvic tumor or from its metastatic sites transvaginally or transabdominally under ultrasound guidance. Sample adequacy was evaluated., Results: Altogether, 119 patients were referred for tru-cut biopsy during a study period. Only 4 cases were found unsuitable for tru-cut biopsy and the patients were referred for laparoscopy instead. Samples were obtained transvaginally in 67 patients (58.3%) and transabdominally in 48 patients (41.7%). The biopsy was taken from pelvic tumor in 59 patients (51.3%), omental cake in 14 patients (12.2%), from peritoneal visceral or parietal carcinomatosis in 37 patients (32.2%) and from other localities in 5 patients (4.3 %). The diagnostic adequacy of ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy reached 94.8% (95% CI, 94.17-99.40%). There were only two tru-cut biopsy-related complications: The first case involved bleeding from tumor in a patient with mild thrombocytopenia that required laparotomy; in the second case, diagnostic laparoscopy was indicated after a minor bleeding occurred in the biopsy site on ultrasound, however, no significant pelvic bleeding was confirmed by the procedure., Conclusion: Ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy is a safe, reliable, fast, and cost-effective diagnostic method for histological verification of both advanced primary and recurrent abdomino-pelvic tumors. It can be performed in an outpatient setting without the need for general anesthesia, causing a minimal discomfort to the patient in comparison with laparoscopy or laparotomy. The risk of complications is low and the main advantage is the acquirement of a sample adequate for further immunohistochemical examination, which is a necessary requirement for the choice of optimal oncological treatment.

Objective: Survey of knowledge of Czech and Romanian women about STIs and their perception of sources of the information., Design: Representative survey., Methods: Anonymous questionnare survey of the sample of 1011 Czech and 1001 Romanian women aged 15 to 50., Results: The doctor or the psychologist is considered to be the most reliable source of information about STIs, the Czech women prefer information from books and papers, Romanian women consider the close persons to be more better source of information than Czech women. The Czech women know better the realy effective methods of STI prevention and situations which are risky from the possible HIV/AIDS infection, Romanian ones more often believe in non effective methods of prevention and more often are afraid of situations, which are not dangerous and more often were not able to answer the questions at all., Conclusion: Romanian women have worse konwledge in the area of STIs than Czech ones. They are also more credulous to information from different sources, especially to those provided by experts or by close persons.

- Abstract
Objective: Review recent knowledge concerning significance of detection of DNA HPV in regional lymph nodes in cervical cancer patients., Type of the Study: Literature review., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gyneacology, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University and General Teaching Hospital, Prague., Results: Metastatic involvement of pelvic lymph nodes is the most important prognostic parameter in early stages cervical cancer. Still, almost 20% of patients with negative pelvic nodes experience recurrence. Detection of HPV DNA in lymph nodes might be a marker of occult metastatic involvement. However, published data are limited, mostly due to inconsistent methodology. Only 3 prospective studies evaluating HPV from fresh or frozen tissue were published till now, all other retrospective studies extracted HPV DNA from paraffin embedded samples. A few papers showed correlation between HPV DNA and metastatic involvement of pelvic lymph nodes. DNA HPV identification in histopatology-negative nodes was considered as a risk factor for recurrence. Presence of DNA HPV 18 in histopathology-negative pelvic nodes was described as a poor prognostic factor; however prognostic significance of individual genotype is still unclear., Conclusion: Detection of high risk HPV DNA in regional lymph nodes is a good candidate for prognostic parameter in early stages cervical cancers. The group of women with both absence of metastatic involvement and negative HPV DNA evaluation of regional lymph node should represent a cohort of patients with particularly good prognosis.

- Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study was to estimate genetic changes detected in ovarian and cervical cancer cells, in correlation with other available clinical and histopathological parameters, with impact upon cancer prognosis., Design: Original article., Setting: Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, First Faculty of Medicine, Charles University in Prague and General Teaching Hospital, Prague., Methods: Sixty patients with ovarian cancer and twenty patients with cervical cancer were included in the study. A histopathologist examined the tumor samples in order to define the histological type and grade. MIB-1 and p53 were estimated using an immunohistochemical method. For genetic testing, both conventional and molecular methods were applied (direct culture and a G-banding technique, the FISH method with whole chromosome painting probes, and the CGH method). The results were submitted to statistical evaluation, using analysis of variances and X2 test., Results: Numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations were detected in more than 63% of the examined ovarian cancer cases and 29% of examined cervical cancer cases. Ovarian cancer patients with extensive chromosomal rearrangements were significantly younger. The most typical findings in ovarian cancer cells were amplifications 1q, 3q, 20q; and deletions 4p, 4q, 18p, 18q, 19q. The most typical findings in cervical tumor cells were amplifications 3q, 5p; and deletions 13q and isochromosome 5p. Some of the less frequent findings in our study were deletion 22q in 36% of all ovarian cancer samples, as well as amplifications of chromosome 2 and deletions of chromosome 10, 11p, 21q in cervical cancer cells. The activity of proliferative marker MIB-1 was significantly higher in women with a high p53 HSCORE (p < 0.01)., Conclusions: Chromosomal rearrangements, different for ovarian and cervical cancer, have been found, including several rare findings. The significant importance of genetic alterations and the activity of proliferative markers, including common correlations with an unfavorable outcome in ovarian tumors of younger women were found.

- Abstract
Objective: To compare per-operative and post-operative morbidity in patients undergoing radical surgery for carcinoma of the uterine cervix after administration of a neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and for primarily small cervical tumour., Type of the Study: A retrospective case-control study., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gyneacology, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University and General Teaching Hospital, Prague., Methods: The study included 24 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix who underwent radical hysterectomy including systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy after previous administration of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) during the period between 1/2004 and 6/2006. The control group of 24 patients was selected retrospectively from the population of women after radical surgery carried out in the same period, nevertheless, the controls underwent the surgery for primarily small carcinoma of the uterine cervix, stages IA2 or IB1. The tumour size consistent with the reduced tumour after NACT administration was the criterion for selection of the control group. The following parameters were monitored in both groups--duration of the surgery, blood loss objectivised by a difference in pre-operative and post-operative haemoglobin and haematocrit values, the need of blood transfusion, per-operative complications, early post-operative complications (up to 6 weeks after the surgery), duration of hospitalization and retaining the inserted epicystotostomy due to hypotonic bladder after discharge., Results: A therapeutic response allowing the radical surgery was achieved in 92% patients after NACT. After NACT the original tumour volume was reduced by 70% on the average (58% - 100%). No significant differences between the group of patients treated with NACT and undergoing subsequent radical hysterectomy and the control group were reported in terms of duration of the surgery (165 min. vs. 160 min.), blood loss (the difference in pre-operative and post-operative haemoglobin values 18 g/l vs. 19 g/l, the difference in pre-operative and post-operative haematocrit values 0.056 vs. 0.064), administration of blood transfusion (25% vs. 21%) and duration of hospitalization (9.5 days vs. 9.6 days). A significant difference was reported only in the need to retain the inserted epi-cystostomy after discharge (67% vs. 47%)., Conclusion: There were no significant differences in the evaluated parameters of per-operative and postoperative morbidity in patients after NACT and in control patients, except for the necessary duration of artificial urine derivation in patients after NACT due to the fact that their surgery was more radical in the parametria. Administration of NACT regimen involving ifosfamide/cisplatin (IP) improved surgical conditions in the bulky squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix.

Objective: To summarize available data concerning adrenal hyperandrogenemia caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency, non-classic adrenal hyperplasia (NCAH)., Design: Review article., Setting: Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, General Faculty Hospital and 1st Medical Faculty, Prague., Methods: Compilation of published data from scientific literature., Conclusion: Although 21-hydroxylase deficiency is one of the most frequent autosomal recessive genetic disorders, prevalence of NCAH in the whole population and among hyperandrogenic women is very low. The measurement of 17OH-progesterone should be incorporated into the standard evaluation of all hyperandrogenic patients to establish or exclude the diagnosis of NCAH. There is no typical clinical sign of NCAH, and clinical symptoms are to similar to patients with PCOS. Corticoid substitution as a treatment modality of NCAH is derived from therapy of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Anti-androgen therapy is effective in skin disorders (hirsutism). Due to normal cortisol value there is to use of combined oral contraceptives in the treatment of choice. An improvement of clinical symptoms is a key parameter for the evaluation of treatment effectiveness. There are no data about risk of late metabolic complications in NCAH patients.

- Abstract
Objective: Review of diagnostical and therapeutical methods in glandular premalignant lesions of the uterine cervix., Design: Review article., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gyneacology, 1st Medical Faculty, Charles University and General Faculty Hospital, Prague., Results: The incidence of invasive adenocarcinomas of the uterine cervix is increasing. Incidence ratio between adenocarcinomas and spinocellular carcinomas is approximately 1:5; however ratio of premalignant lesions reaches only about 1:80. Glandular premalignant disease is usually found in the specimen taken for squamous disease. The coincidence of both types of premalignant lesions, so called "mixed lesion", is revealed in about 46-72%. PAP-smear of AGC-NOS/-NEO or adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) in combination with typical colposcopic appearance raise a suspicion of glandular lesion. Direct biopsy must be always performed to get definite diagnosis. Optimum biopsy technique requires cylindrical excision. A woman can be carefully followed if desires pregnancy and specimen margins are negative. Hysterectomy is indicated if reproductive plans are completed., Conclusion: Diagnosis of glandular premalignat lesion of the uterine cervix is more complicated in comparison to spinocellular one, however it is getting more significant due to increasing incidence. Colposcopy and cytology are less reliable. Any suspicion on glandular premalignat leasion requires more active approach and radical procedure (hysterectomy) if possible.

- Abstract
Exenteration pelvic procedures are surgical options for treatment of locally advanced pelvic tumors. Due to the procedure's success rates, it has become a standard therapeutic procedure, when indicated. From the medical point of view, the following factors characterize the level of seriousness of these procedures: the fact that the procedure is extensive, its complicated reconstruction phase and high postoperative morbidity rates. From the patient's point of view, it is characterized by a principal change in the quality of life. In this case review the authors present their experience with a multidisciplinary approach to these procedures.

Objective: Review of reconstruction procedures following pelvic exenterations., Design: Review article., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Department of Urology, 1st Department of Surgery, Faculty Teaching Hospital and 1st Medical Faculty of the Charles University, Prague., Methods: Review and critical assessment of published data., Conclusions: Reconstruction procedures are important part of pelvic exenterations. The procedures are crucial for following quality of life. Currently the most frequently used techniques for isolated pelvic floor support are omental flaps (carpets), for combined reconstruction of pelvic floor and vagina TRAM (transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneus flap). Reconstructions prolong operation time; however they are accompanied with low morbidity and some techniques decrease total morbidity of exenterative procedure. Total and posterior exenterations require sigmoideostomy in vast majority of cases. Low rectal anastomosis might be used in cases of supralevator procedures. They cause high morbidity especially in patients following radiotherapy. In these patients temporary diverting colostomy is being recommended. A bowel segment is usually used for urinary diversion following total or anterior exenteration. Golden standard remain the incontinent ureteroenterostomies using ileum or colon transversum. Currently continent diversions are considered more often due to encouraging results and good quality of life. Heterotopic diversions, with continent conduit and cutaneous stoma, are frequently used. Risk of serious complications, especially fistulas and stoma stenosis, after all types of diversions is possible to reduce by using appropriate bowel segment not handicapped by previous radiotherapy.

Objective: Discussion of current experiences with abdominal radical trachelectomy in the treatment of early stages of cervical cancer in fertile women., Design: Case-reports., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital and 1st Medical Faculty, Charles University, Prague., Methods: Presentation of 4 cases of abdominal radical trachelectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. Discussion with published data., Results: Three cases of open abdominal and one case of laparoscopic abdominal radical trachelectomies together with pelvic lymphadenectomies are presented. All procedures were indicated for cervical cancer stages IA2-IB1. Frozen section of pelvic nodes and a slice of upper margin of cervix revealed no metastasis or infiltration. In total 22-43 pelvic nodes were removed, being negative in all cases. Operative time ranged between 148 and 270 min. in laparotomy and 250 min. in laparoscopy. Blood loss reached 350-3500 ml. There were no intraoperative complications, postoperatively one case of bladder atony was treated by suprapubic drainage for 30 days, one case of ileus was managed pharmacologically. Vaginal suture healed properly in all cases. No complications occurred within limited follow-up of 1-5 months., Conclusion: Abdominal radical trachelectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy is a rational alternative in the treatment of stages IA2-IIA cervical cancer in women of fertile age. Standard radicality in parametria resection and easy incorporation into armamentarium of oncogynecological centers are main advantages of such approach. Laparotomy can be avoided using laparoscopy.

- Abstract
Objective: Review of literature concerning pelvic exenterative procedures., Design: Review article., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Charles University, Prague., Methods: Review and critical assessment of published data., Conclusion: Pelvic exenterations are standard procedures in oncogynecology which have no alternative in certain indications. The most frequent indications are recurrences or progressions of cervical, vulva or vaginal cancers. Exenterative procedures might be used in primary treatment in some cases of locally advanced tumors. Mortality of current procedures reaches 5% to 10%, early and late postoperative morbidity is frequent (40-60%). Recently explorative laparoscopy is used in preoperative staging to decrease the number of aborted procedures due to distant metastasis or pelvic tumor inoperability. The procedure with high morbidity, causing impairment of quality of life, is justified due to good follow-up results--5-years overall survival is about 50-60%. It should be emphasized that with no treatment in these patients median of survival reaches about 6 months.

Objective: Review of advanced radicality in pelvic exenterations., Design: Review article., Setting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, General Faculty Hospital and Ist Medical Faculty of the Charles University, Prague., Methods: Review and critical assessment of published data., Conclusions: More extensive radicality in pelvic exenterations make possible to use surgical treatment in some cases of lateral recurrences or central recurrences with the attachment to the pelvic side wall. One possible technique is a combination of en bloc exenteration with pelvic bone resection, most frequently sacrum. Experiences in gynecological tumours are so far limited. Laterally extended resection was described in lateral infrailiac pelvic wall recurrences. The only one presented paper related to laterally extended procedures showed a reasonable overall survival of patients; however follow-up is limited.
