Ovarian Cancer Signs And Symptoms
Published on Jun 08 2010, in the categories: Ovarian cancer
The cases of ovarian cancer are 90% of the epithelial ones (real crab), the remaining 10% being represented by the germ cells type (germinal tumors), germ cells in the ovaries or the producer frame nourishing connective tissue (stroma) starting point. The incidence of ovarian cancer, its causes and the ovarian development among the female population is of 1.6%. So, a rare cancer type encountered in the female body is included among the 5 most common malignant tumor, but it is also the most common cause of female death. The data demonstrates that ovarian cancer is rare, but one of the most dangerous cancers and this is why it is very important for its signs and symptoms to become familiar to everyone.
Women with incidences of ovarian cancer have never given birth. The reason for this is not entirely clear. It is assumed that the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer in a lifetime ovulation occurs in the case of a great number of women. By contrast, it rarely produces the ovulation (physically overloaded athletes, contraceptive pill defenses, once bore a long and breastfeeding, etc) of ovarian cancer in women up to 60% in the somewhat less frequently inactive in comparison with healthy women. Ovarian cancer monogenic hereditary disease cases represent a percentage of about 5%. The defective genes (in the BRCA1 and BRCA2), represent the breast cancer most common cause (BRCA = breast cancer antigen).

Furthermore, ovarian cancer is often encountered in the case of women. Those mutations can cause prostate cancer in men. The risks of ovarian cancer appear mainly because they usually cause bad signs and symptoms when being spread into the peritoneum. The discovery of early stage ovarian cancer can be made with the help of vaginal ultrasounds for example.
The signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer has already spread is not peculiar to any similar complaints were kept to cause cancer. Symptoms such as.
• Bloating
• Pelvic or abdominal pai
• Pubic and alszárfájdalom
• Diarrhea, constipation, indigestion
• Urinary symptoms
• Painful intercourse
• Vaginal bleeding
• Shortness of breath
In most cases, the spreading of the ovarian cancer (disseminated), the first symptom in a large amount of abdominal fluid (ascites) appearance, which has a strong general wasting (cachexia) is reflected in its shape.
The course of ovarian cancer
The clinical course of the disease stages will be provided. It determines the exact stage of ovarian cancer which is somehow the most difficult thing to do , so you do not undertake a detailed presentation.

-1st Stage of ovarian cancer- attention must be paid not to break the casing of the ovary.
-2nd Stage of ovarian cancer - it is required to break down the casing, but it does not cross the boundaries of the pelvis.
- 3rd Stage of the cancer spreads to the abdominal, pelvic and abdominal lymph nodes
- 4th Stage of the tumor in the internal genital organs, lymph nodes and organs outside the liver, brain, lung can invade.
The patient is really healed in the first 2 stages when it is e possible. The treatment is aimed at extending the life of the patient, his/her quality of life, the total value of human life, to ensure his/her good life conditions. The chances of survival in patients does not only depend on the stage, but on the type of the tumor, and on the sensitivity against cytostatic drugs as well.
The staging of the context points out the cancer boundaries. More prone to cancer are those presenting cystic tumor degeneration, especially in the serous cysts stages. The cystic tumor inside the cauliflower grows and forms in the cells a malignant degeneration . The bordeline cancer is nothing more than a benign, encapsulated bag itself and it is dangerous in benign cystic ovarian tumors generated within the cancerous degeneration. If it is diagnosed at the same time, the patient can be cured quasi 100% security (the exceptions are of genetic origin, ovarian cancer will be exempt).
The average five-year survival chance of the first stage at approx. 90%, 2 Stage 60% are satisfied, 3 Grade for 10-20%, 4 stage up to a few percent.
