The skin performs protective functions.One of its main tasks is to create an obstacle to penetration of pathological microorganisms. In addition, the skin has the ability to get rid of dead cells. If the protective barrier is broken, there is a possibility of permanent inflammation, loss of moisture. However, the protective barrier can, on the contrary, be too strong. As a result, a disease occurs, such as hyperkeratosis of the skin. Persons suffering from this pathology, feel coarsening tissue. Dead elements do not naturally peel off, but remain on the surface, closing living cells, preventing their normal functioning.
Hyperkeratosis of flat epithelium
This pathology is characteristic of women older thanmagpie. It develops as a result of a number of physiological changes and the influence of various factors on the formation of a pathogenic environment in the body. Hyperkeratosis of the cervix is at one of the leading places among gynecological diseases. As experts mark, recently the disease tends to rejuvenate.
Causes of pathology. Methods of examination
Gynecologists today define severalprovoking disease factors. These include, in particular, cancer, immune disorders, endocrine disorders, the presence of infectious infections (papillomavirus, chlamydia and others), as well as chronic injuries. However, the direct relationship with one or other of the reasons remains unclear until the end. Hyperkeratosis of the cervix has no external manifestations. In this regard, a woman for a long time may not be aware of the presence of her pathology. Detection of the disease occurs on examination with a doctor. When examined, a gynecologist can detect white patches on the ectocervix. If there are no obvious signs, the specialist prescribes colposcopy. According to the results of the study, the gynecologist gives his opinion about the condition. It should be noted that one cytological study may be uninformative. This is due to the fact that the material is taken from the surface, but not from the deep basal layers in which the pathological process develops. The most complete idea of the symptoms can be given by biopsy together with a histological study.
Hyperkeratosis of the cervix. Treatment
Therapy is prescribed according to the depthdamage to the tissue. In addition, the appointment of treatment takes into account the age of the patient, reproductive function (gave birth earlier sick or not). Young women are recommended more gentle methods. This avoids the formation of scars. Such measures include, in particular, radiosurgery, laser vaporization, cryodestruction. Nondegenerate patients are often prescribed cauterization with the drug "Solkagin". This also helps prevent scarring of the surface. Hyperkeratosis of the cervix in severe form involves surgical intervention. Additionally, the therapy includes hormonal, antibacterial, immunostimulating effects with appropriate drugs.
