Rapid Fatal Progression of Cervical Cancer during Pregnancy Treated by Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy

Iptissem Naoura, Lise Selleret, Frederic Selle and Emile Darai

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: June 29, 2016

Cervical cancer is the most commonly diagnosed gynaecological malignancy in pregnant women. The prognosis of this cancer does not seem to be influenced by the pregnancy. However, the cancer management comes into competition with maternal and foetal outcomes, especially during the 2nd trimester of pregnancy. Challenging issues lie in the cervical screening during pregnancy, the evaluation of lymph node status and the indication of neoadjuvant chemotherapy to avoid foetal prematurity without compr...

Cold Shock as a Possible Remedy for Neurodegenerative Disease

Takuma Aihara and Fuminori Tsuruta

Article Type: Mini Review | First Published: July 22, 2016

Synapse remodeling is an essential physiological phenomenon in maintaining the normal brain function. Traumatic injury is one of the causes that triggers abnormality in synapse remodeling, leading to neurodegeneration. So far, substantial clinical trials have been attempted to cure neurodegeneration. One of the challenging approaches that improves neurodegenerative symptoms is therapeutic hypothermia. The putative positive feature induced by therapeutic hypothermia on patient is neuroprotection;...

Immune and Genetic Susceptibility in the Development of Cervical Cancer

Barbara Mora, Felipe M Benavente, Carmen G Ili and Priscilla Brebi

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: June 13, 2016

Cervical cancer is the second most frequent cancer in women worldwide. Although 99.7% of cases are attributed to a previous infection by Human papillomavirus, a small percentage of the infected women progress to cervical cancer, suggesting the existence of different risk factors involved in the development and progression of this pathology. Genetic variability related to the host immune system could play an important role in the defense response to Human papillomavirus and therefore to the proba...
