We have treated 35 patients who is sick gynecologial benign tumor and needs panhysterectomy by LAVH(laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy) form July,1997.
Benign tumors can be surgically removed if they're causing symptoms, while the treatment for malignant tumors requires radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery.
One cause is hyperprolactinemia, or excessive prolactin secretion by pituitary lactotroph cells, which is frequently seen with a benign pituitary tumor called a prolactinoma.
A different cause is a hyper functioning thyroid adenoma where the follicular cells start growing uncontrollably, forming a benign tumor that makes excess thyroid hormones.
Compared with benign tumor cells, malignant tumor cells have key features like not having a clearly defined border or like a slightly less organized nuclei.
The leading cause of that is a pituitary adenoma, which is a benign tumor of the pituitary gland- and this specific condition is called Cushing disease.
Another common cause of endogenous Cushing syndrome is tumors of the adrenal glands that make excess cortisol - like adrenal adenomas, which are benign tumors, and adrenal carcinomas, which are malignant tumors.
Benign tumors can be surgically removed to reduce pain and the risk of fractures, while malignant tumors are treated with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery depending on the type and spread of the tumor.
The exact reason for the development of this sort of benign tumor isn't known - but unlike a malignant tumor - the cells don't invade neighboring tissues or spread to other parts of the body.
