Pathology reports include not only histopathological diagnoses but also specific information relating to prognosis and treatment; thus, pathologists must have sufficient familiarity with the staging classification and management of gynaecological cancers to assure that their reports communicate clinically relevant information. On the other hand, full understanding of the pathology report by the gynaecologist requires familiarity with the terminology used in gynaecological pathology. This chapter summarizes the pathological features of the most common gynaecological tumours.

Synchronous primary tumors of female genital tract are rare with a rate of about 0.7-1.8% of all gynaecological tumours. Most common primary tumours presenting as synchronous lesions are ovary and endometrium. However, sex cord stromal tumors are rare variety of primary ovarian tumor and synchronous with endometrium is even much rarer. These tumors are detected usually in younger, overweight, nulliparous and perimenopausal female. Synchronous primary tumors of endometrium and ovary have a better prognosis than the either of above alone because these are usually low grade and diagnosed at early stage. We present a report of four cases of synchronous endometrial and sex cord stromal tumors of ovary.

The contradictory opinions prevailing in the sciences regarding the use of the so-called objective antiseptics in obstetrics forced W. to discuss the controversial issue of asepticity or non-asepticity of female genital tracts, and he came to some results. The genital tract of an unexamined pregnant woman breaks up in bacteriological relation into two sections: the lower one, rich in microorganisms, and the upper one, completely free of microbes. The border between both sections is located in the middle part of the cervical canal and is caused on the one hand by constantly renewing cervical mucus, which is a poor nutrient medium for microorganisms, and on the other hand, by phagocytosis, which has a place in the lower part of the uterine cervix, due to the property of the vaginal secretion of the vagina. from the surrounding tissues.

ABSTRACT The effect of prolonged treatment with high doses of oestrogen and/or progesterone on the amount of adrenergic transmitter in the short adrenergic neurons of the male reproductive tract of castrated rats has been studied by chemical determinations and histochemical demonstration of noradrenaline. Oestrogen, progesterone, or a combination of both, had no overt effect on the total content or on the concentration of noradrenaline in the male genital organs. The results are discussed in the light of recent findings that the content of the noradrenaline transmitter in the short adrenergic neurons to the female genital tract is markedly influenced by these female sex hormones.
