Uterus didelphys (from Ancient Greek di- 'two' and delphus 'womb'; sometimes also uterus didelphis) represents a uterine malformation where the uterus is present as a paired organ when the embryogenetic fusion of the Müllerian ducts fails to occur. As a result, there is a double uterus with two separate cervices, and possibly a double vagina ...
"Dyskaryosis" is a term used for all squamous mucosal surfaces and commonly used for the uterine cervix condition in which some of the epithelial cells near the external orifice show abnormalities in their cellular nuclei. These changes are often quite subtle; often seen as temporary changes between the ages of fifteen and twenty-five.
The cause of CIN is chronic infection of the cervix with HPV, especially infection with high-risk HPV types 16 or 18. It is thought that the high-risk HPV infections have the ability to inactivate tumor suppressor genes such as the p53 gene and the RB gene, thus allowing the infected cells to grow unchecked and accumulate successive mutations, eventually leading to cancer.
The uterus is "heart-shaped". This condition can be complete or partial. Class V—Septated uterus (uterine septum or partition). The two Müllerian ducts have fused, but the partition between them is still present, splitting the system into two parts. With a complete septum the vagina, cervix and the uterus can be partitioned.
Labia: two types of vertical folds of skin called the labia majora (thick and large outer folds that protect other parts of the vulva) and the labia minora (thin and small inner folds that protect the vestibule from dryness, infections and irritation). Mons pubis: a mass of fatty tissue where the pubic hair grows.
This is a condition where you can't properly relax and coordinate the muscles in your pelvic floor to have a bowel movement, according to the Cleveland Clinic. It also causes pain during sex in women.
The stain should result in cells that are fairly transparent so even thicker specimens with overlapping cells can be interpreted. [2] Cell nuclei should be crisp, blue to black on color [12] [13] and the chromatin patterns of the nucleus should be well defined. Cell cytoplasm stains blue-green and keratin stains orange in color. [13] [5]
Other abnormalities include: vaginal adenosis, in which the squamous epithelium of the ectocervix becomes columnar; cancers such as clear cell adenocarcinomas; cervical ridges and hoods; and development of a cockscomb cervix appearance, [59] which is the condition wherein, as the name suggests, the cervix of the uterus is shaped like a cockscomb.
