open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2002
13 páginas, 2 figuras, 1 tabla.Cutaneous leiomyomas, rare benign tumors originating from the arrector pili muscle of the hair follicle, can be associated with the common uterine fibroids in a syndrome called multiple cutaneous and uterine leiomyomas ...

Role of Medical Management for Uterine Leiomyomas [PDF]

open access: yesBest Practice and Research in Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2016
Uterine leiomyomas, or fibroids, are the most common benign tumor in reproductive aged women. Affected women may remain asymptomatic or may report symptoms related to abnormal uterine bleeding, infertility, or pelvic pain and pressure.

Global metabolomic profiling of uterine leiomyomas [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2017
Background: Uterine leiomyomas can be classified into molecularly distinct subtypes according to their genetic triggers: MED12 mutations, HMGA2 upregulation, or inactivation of FH.

Allelotype of Uterine Leiomyomas

Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics, 1999
Uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign tumor that arise from smooth muscle cells of the myometrium. Little is known about the etiology and pathogenesis of this tumor. To investigate the molecular pathogenesis of these tumors, we have conducted an allelotype of 102 leiomyomas from 12 patients, using 67 fluorescently-tagged oligonucleotide primers

Uterine Bizarre Leiomyoma

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1982
Abstract. On the basis of two new cases of uterine bizarre leiomyoma and a short review of the literature, the clinical aspects and pathology of this neoplasm are described. The problems of classifying atypical smooth muscle tumors and predicting malignancy according to morphologic criteria are discussed.

PTPN22 and uterine leiomyomas

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2015
It has been suggested that the development of uterine leiomyomas is positively influenced by an immune system in a chronically inflammatory state and that a lower level of regulating T cell (Treg cells) would play a central role. Since it has been suggested that the W620 variant of protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) decreases ...

The Frequency of Uterine Leiomyomas

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1990
As a leading cause of hysterectomy in premenopausal women. uterine leiomyomas are a major public health problem. However, very little work has been done on their epidemiology. Indeed, their true frequency has never been established using systematic and meticulous methods.

Uterine Leiomyoma in a Sheep

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, 2009
Leiomyomas are benign tumours, which are frequently found in animal species. However, the presence of leiomyomas in domestic ruminants has been rarely reported, especially in sheep. This report describes the pathological and immunohistochemical characteristics of a leiomyoma in the uterine body of a sheep and discusses the different aetiological causes.

Uterine Leiomyoma

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2001
Abstract: Many risk factors have been identified as having either a protective or a negative effect on the development of fibroids, but due to methodological issues and a lack of long‐term studies, the exact effect of these factors is ambiguous. In similar dispute is the proper treatment of fibroids. Recent technological advances have introduced newer,

Uterine leiomyoma cytogenetics

Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer, 1990
AbstractUterine leiomyoma—a benign smooth muscle tumor—has recently been found to contain tumor‐specific chromosome aberrations. Although only normal karyotypes were detected in 50 to 80% of cytogenetically investigated tumors, 104 leiomyomas with karyotypic aberrations have already been reported.
