Abstract
For some gynecologic malignancies, there are disagreements between the most recent WHO and TNM classifications and the recommendations of the International Collaboration of Cancer Reporting. These discrepancies are addressed and discussed in this paper. The WHO definition for primary vaginal cancer does not match the TNM definition. The paper also discusses and provides TNM classifications for rare gynecologic tumors like primary malignant vulvar melanomas, sarcomas of the vulva, perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PECom) of the uterus, undifferentiated uterine sarcomas, and extra-intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and provides some recommendations for the reporting and categorization of regional lymph nodes in nonuterine serous pelvic cancer.

Abstract
Summary
Objectives:
A proof of principle study was conducted for microscopic tissue volume reconstructions using a new image processing chain operating on alternately stained large histological serial sections.
Methods:
Digital histological images were obtained from conventional brightfield transmitted light microscopy. A powerful nonparametric nonlinear optical flow-based registration approach was used. In order to apply a simple but computationally feasible sum-of-squared-differences similarity measure even in case of differing histological stainings, a new consistent tissue segmentation procedure was placed upstream.
Results:
Two reconstructions from uterine cervix carcinoma specimen were accomplished, one alternately stained with p16INK4a (surrogate tumor marker) and H&E (routine reference), and another with three different alternate stainings, H&E, p16INK4a, and CD3 (a T-lymphocyte marker). For both cases, due to our segmentation-based reference-free nonlinear registration procedure, resulting tissue reconstructions exhibit utmost smooth image-to-image transitions without impairing warpings.
Conclusions:
Our combination of modern nonparametric nonlinear registration and consistent tissue segmentation has turned out to provide a superior tissue reconstruction quality.

Abstract
Histopathological assessment of the tumor grade and cell type is central to the management and prognosis of various gynecological malignancies. Conventional grading systems for squamous carcinomas and adenocarcinomas of the vulva, vagina and cervix are poorly defined. For endometrioid tumors of the female genital tract as well as for mucinous endometrial, ovarian and seromucinous ovarian carcinomas, the 3‑tiered FIGO grading system is recommended. For uterine neuroendocrine tumors the grading system of the gastrointestinal counterparts has been adopted. Uterine leiomyosarcomas are not graded. Endometrial stromal sarcomas are divided into low and high grades, based on cellular morphology, immunohistochemical and molecular findings. A chemotherapy response score was established for chemotherapeutically treated high-grade serous pelvic cancer. For non-epithelial ovarian malignancies, only Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors and immature teratomas are graded. At this time molecular profiling has no impact on the grading of tumors of the female genital tract.

Abstract
We investigated the impact of demographic and disease related factors on non-participation and dropout in a cluster-randomised behavioural trial in cancer patients with measurements taken between hospitalisation and 6 months thereafter. The percentages of non-participation and dropout were documented at each time point. Factors considered to be potentially related with non-participation and dropout were as follows: age, sex, marital status, education, income, employment status, tumour site and stage of disease. Of 1,338 eligible patients, 24% declined participation at baseline. Non-participation was higher in older patients (Odds Ratio [OR] 2.1, CI: 0.6-0.9) and those with advanced disease (OR 2.0, CI: 0.1-1.3). Dropout by 6 months was 25%. Dropout was more frequent with increased age (OR 2.8, CI: 0.8-1.2), advanced disease (OR 3.0, CI: 1.0-1.2), being married (OR 2.4, CI 0.7-1.1) and less frequent with university education (OR 0.4, CI -1.3 to -0.8) and middle income (OR 0.4, CI -0.9 to -0.7). When planning clinical trials, it is important to be aware of patient groups at high risk of non-participation or dropout, for example older patients or those with advanced disease. Trial designs should consider their special needs to increase their rate of participation.

Abstract
Purpose: The aim was to establish an official interdisciplinary guideline, published and coordinated by the German Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics (DGGG). The guideline was developed for use in German-speaking countries. In addition to the Germany Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics, the guideline has also been approved by the Swiss Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics (SGGG) and the Austrian Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics (OEGGG). The aim was to standardize diagnostic procedures and the management of gestational and non-gestational trophoblastic disease in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, drawing on the current literature and the experience of the colleagues involved in compiling the guideline. Methods: This s2k guideline represents the consensus of a representative panel of experts with a range of different professional backgrounds commissioned by the DGGG. Following a review of the international literature and international guidelines on trophoblastic tumors, a structural consensus was achieved in a formalized, multi-step procedure. This was done using uniform definitions, objective assessments, and standardized management protocols. Recommendations: The recommendations of the guideline cover the epidemiology, classification and staging of trophoblastic tumors; the measurement of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels in serum, and the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of villous trophoblastic tumors (e.g., partial mole, hydatidiform mole, invasive mole) and non-villous trophoblastic tumors (placental site nodule, exaggerated placental site, placental site tumor, epitheloid trophoblastic tumor, and choriocarcinoma).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite complex surgical and systemic therapies epithelial ovarian cancer has a poor prognosis. A small quantity of tumorigenic cells termed cancer stem cells (CSC) are responsible for the development of chemoresistance and high rates of recurrence. OBJECTIVES This review presents the CSC hypothesis and describes methods of identification and enrichment of CSCs as well as approaches for the therapeutic use of these findings. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic literature review based on PubMed and Web of Science was carried out. RESULTS The CSC model is based on a hierarchical structure of tumors with few CSCs and variably differentiated tumor cells constituting the tumor bulk. Only the CSCs possess tumorigenic potential. Other essential functional characteristics of CSCs are their potential for self-renewal and their ability to differentiate into further cell types. The CSCs are structurally characterized by different surface markers and changes in certain signaling pathways. Currently there are phase I and II studies in progress investigating specific influences on CSCs. CONCLUSION Various clinical characteristics of the course of disease in ovarian cancer are aptly represented by the tumor stem cell model. In spite of precisely defined functional characteristics of CSCs, surface markers and signaling pathways show individual differences and vary between tumor entities. This complicates identification and enrichment. Current experimental findings in various approaches and even first clinical studies raise hopes for a personalized cancer therapy targeting CSCs.

Abstract
The distinction between primary and secondary (metastatic) ovarian tumors is essential for the selection of appropriate surgical interventions, chemotherapeutic treatment and prognostic evaluation for the patient. Metastatic tumors of the ovary range between 5 % and 30 %. The majority of ovarian metastases in Europe and North America derive from colorectal (25-50 %) and breast cancers (8-25 %). A major issue is the differential diagnosis of mucinous tumors. Major features favoring metastasis include bilaterality, size < 10 cm, ovarian surface involvement, extensive intra-abdominal spread, and infiltrative growth within the ovary involving the corpus albicans and corpora lutea. An algorithm using bilaterality and tumor size (cut-off 10 cm) allows correct categorization in approximately 85 % of the cases. Although immunohistochemistry (especially CK7 and CK20 in mucinous tumors) using a panel of antibodies plays a valuable role and is paramount in the diagnosis, the results must be interpreted with caution and within the relevant clinical and histopathological context. It is necessary to note that the correct diagnosis of ovarian metastases always needs interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches.

Abstract
During recent years paramount changes have occurred in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer and recent clinical studies identified new prognostic factors. Consequently, the FIGO has established a new staging system collectively covering carcinomas derived from the ovaries, the fallopian tubes and primary peritoneal cancers as well as malignant ovarian germ cell and sex-cord stromal tumors. The new staging system started on 01 January 2014. Major changes occurred in the FIGO IC/T1c stage with surgical spill (FIGO IC1/T1c1) versus capsule ruptured before surgery or tumor on ovarian or fallopian tube surface (FIGO IC2/T1c2) versus malignant cells in the ascites or peritoneal washings (FIGO IC3/T1c3). The regional lymph node metastases were subcategorised using a cut-off value of 10 mm as the largest dimension of the metastatic deposits. Distant metastases (excluding peritoneal metastases) were substaged as FIGO IVA/M1a in cases of cytologically or histologically proven pleural involvement and as FIGO IVB/M1b in cases of parenchymal metastases and metastases in extra-abdominal organs (including lymph nodes outside the peritoneal cavity and the inguinal lymph nodes).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study examined the prevalence of mental health conditions in cancer patients, the role of socioeconomic position in relation to that, and the use of professional mental health care. METHODS Prospective cohort with measurements at the beginning of inpatient treatment (baseline) and 3, 9, and 15 months after baseline using structured clinical interviews based on DSM-IV, questionnaires, and medical records. RESULTS At baseline, 149 out of 502 cancer patients (30%) were diagnosed with a mental health condition. Prevalence was associated with unemployment (odds ratio [OR] 2.0), fatigue (OR 1.9), and pain (OR 1.7). Of those with mental health conditions, 9% saw a psychotherapist within 3 months of the diagnosis, 19% after 9 months, and 11% after 15 months. Mental health care use was higher in patients with children ≤18 years (OR 3.3) and somatic co-morbidity (OR 2.6). There was no evidence for an effect of sex on the use of mental health care. CONCLUSION Few cancer patients with psychiatric disorders receive professional mental health care early enough. If patients are unemployed or if they suffer from fatigue or pain, special attention should be paid because the risk of having a mental health condition is increased in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Different patterns of invasion (PIs) have prognostic impact in several types of cancer and are associated with different grades of peritumoral stromal remodeling, characterized by the desmoplastic stromal response (DSR). One key regulator influencing cellular motility and peritumoral stromal response is c-met/HGF. This study evaluates the association between different PI, peritumoral DSR and its correlation to the expression of c-met/HGF in squamous cell carcinomas of the uterine cervix (CX). STUDY DESIGN 131 advanced stage CX (FIGO III/IV) were re-evaluated histologically regarding PI, using a two-level scoring system. The tumor grows in solid cords/trabeculae in finger-like PI and in very small groups or single cells in spray-like PI. DSR was categorized as none/weak and moderate/strong. The tumors were stained with antibodies against c-met and HGF. The staining of >30% of tumor cells was defined as overexpression. The PI was correlated to the prognostic outcome, different categories of DSR and expression status of c-met and HGF. RESULTS 66.4% of the tumors showed a finger-like, and 33.6% a spray-like PI. The spray-like PI showed a reduced two-year overall survival when compared to the finger-like PI (14.0% vs. 29.1%, respectively; p=0.012), and was associated with moderate/strong DSR. The majority of the tumors showed overexpression of c-met (85.4%) and HGF (74.8%). There was no correlation between the expression status of c-met/HGF and the FIGO stage, peritumoral DSR or the prognostic outcome. CONCLUSIONS Spray-like PI is of prognostic impact in cervical carcinoma FIGO III/IV and is associated with strong peritumoral stromal remodeling. There is no prognostic impact of the immunohistochemical expression of c-met/HGF in advanced stage cervical carcinomas.

Abstract
A careful macroscopic description with selection of representative tissue for histological examination is required for quality assurance, for assessing prognostic factors and for answering legal questions in (pre)cancerous lesions of the cervix uteri. Exact and standardized gross inspection and preparation are decisive for the quality of the histopathological statement. The extent of cervical carcinomas should be given in three dimensions, including the relative depth of invasion into the cervical wall. The report should include size, type (according to the WHO classification) and grading of the tumor, the presence of lymphatic as well as blood vessel invasion and perineural involvement. The statement for resection margins should include the vaginal, parametrial, rectal and vesical directions. It is also mandatory to document the number of lymph nodes with metastatic disease in relation to the total number of nodes investigated. The staging should follow the TNM system. In the handling of conisation specimens, it is important to appropriately document localization, horizontal expansion, depth of invasion including microinvasion of any dysplastic or malignant lesions. Clockwise dissection of the conisation specimen, total submission, and step sections are recommended. The preparation of exenteration specimens is a highly skilled job: the exact tumor dimension should be given in its relation to all resected organs and structures with special focus on resection margins.

Abstract
There has been a considerable debate over the merits of a pre- or intraoperative drainage of giant ovarian cysts, which represented a very frequent approach before definitive surgery in the past. Including our presented case of a 57-year-old woman with a 49 kg mucinous cystadenoma, 19 patients with giant ovarian cysts weighing more than 40 kg were reported in the literature since 1970. An incidence of 37% of malignant and low malignant potential tumors was found. Based on a critical evaluation of the medical courses and the discussed miscellaneous advantages and complications, we conclude that a pre- and intraoperative drainage should be avoided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Different patterns of invasion (representing different grades of tumor cell dissociation) are associated with prognostic outcome in cancer. We evaluated the prognostic value of different patterns of invasion (PI) in cervical carcinomas (CX). METHODS Six hundred eleven surgically treated CX (FIGO IB to IIB) were re-evaluated histologically regarding the PI, using a three-level scoring system. Closed PI was defined as cohesive growth with well-delineated (pushing) borders. In finger-like PI the tumor grows in solid cords/trabecles. Highly dissociative growth in small groups or single cells was defined as spray-like PI. Types of PI were correlated to tumor stage, histo-morphologic factors and prognostic outcome. RESULTS Sixty percent of the tumors showed a spray-like PI, 30% a finger-like PI and only 7.4% were of the closed type. Spray-like PI showed a significant correlation with advanced stage disease, lymphovascular space involvement, poorly differentiated tumors and pelvic lymph node metastases. Spray-like PI was accompanied by a reduced 5-year overall survival when compared to the finger-like and closed PI (68.7% vs. 80.9% vs. 88.5%; P=0.0004). The prognostic impact of the PI disappeared in node-positive patients (P=0.06) but persisted in patients without pelvic lymph node disease (P=0.03). In multivariate analysis, using COX regression model, the PI represented as independent prognostic factor. CONCLUSIONS Spray-like PI (i.e., highest degree of tumor cell dissociation) is associated with advanced tumor stages, increased rate of recurrency and a reduced overall survival. In separate analysis of patients with and without lymph node metastases, the impact of PI persisted only in node-negative cases as a prognostic factor.
