What are the causes of Adenoid basal carcinoma of the cervix uteri?

Adenoid basal carcinoma of the cervix uteri is a rare type of cervical cancer that is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. The exact cause of this type of cancer is unknown, but it is believed to be related to the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a common virus that is spread through sexual contact and can cause changes in the cells of the cervix, which can lead to cancer. Other risk factors for adenoid basal carcinoma of the cervix uteri include smoking, a weakened immune system, and a history of cervical dysplasia (abnormal cell changes in the cervix).

What are the treatments for Adenoid basal carcinoma of the cervix uteri?

The primary treatment for adenoid basal carcinoma of the cervix uteri is surgery. Depending on the stage of the cancer, the surgery may involve a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) and/or a lymph node dissection (removal of lymph nodes in the area). In some cases, radiation therapy may be used in combination with surgery. In advanced cases, chemotherapy may be used to shrink the tumor before surgery.
