Gynaecology Lecture 8 | Benign and Malignant Diseases of the Uterus | FIGO Classification Explained

In this video, we cover key concepts related to the Benign and Malignant Diseases of the Uterus. Benign Diseases of the Uterus: Uterine Fibroids (Leiomyomas): Non-cancerous tumors that develop in the muscular walls of the uterus. Common symptoms include heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure on nearby organs. Endometrial Hyperplasia: A condition where the lining of the uterus becomes abnormally thick, often leading to irregular bleeding. It may be a precursor to endometrial cancer. Adenomyosis: A condition where endometrial tissue grows into the muscle layer of the uterus, causing heavy and painful periods. Malignant Diseases of the Uterus: Endometrial Cancer: The most common form of uterine cancer, often characterized by abnormal vaginal bleeding. Risk factors include obesity, hormone imbalances, and age. Uterine Sarcoma: A rare, aggressive cancer that begins in the muscle or connective tissue of the uterus. It can cause symptoms like abnormal bleeding and pelvic pain. FIGO Classification: The FIGO (International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics) Classification is used to stage uterine cancers, particularly endometrial cancer, and to assess the extent of disease spread. Stage I: Cancer is confined to the uterus. Stage II: Cancer has spread to the cervix. Stage III: Cancer has spread to other pelvic organs or lymph nodes. Stage IV: Cancer has spread to distant organs. This classification helps in determining the appropriate treatment plan for patients with uterine cancer. Thank you for watching!
