The Arias-Stella Reaction:
Facts and Fancies Four Decades After
Javier Arias-Stella
Instituto de Patología y Biología Molecular Arias Stella, Lima, Perú
Summary: Since its first description more than four decades ago, the atypical endometrial
change associated with chorionic tissue effect has been widely confirmed in the literature. However, errors and inaccuracies in text books and other publications often occur. This review clarifies some of these misconceptions and presents a summary of new data on the histologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of the change. A brief discussion of the pathogenesis and biologic significance of the alteration is included. Key Words: Arias-Stella Reaction—Atypical endometrium—Endometrial
change

Forty-six years ago, I bravely knocked on the door of
Dr. Fred W. Stewart’s office. He was Chairman of the
Pathology Department of Memorial Hospital for Cancer
in New York City. I had been a fellow in pathology for
2 months and finally I was reaching my main goal at this
famous hospital: to consult with the pathologist then considered
one of the foremost in tumor diagnosis in the
United States on two cases that I had seen while a medical
student back home in Perú and that had been diagnosed
by my seniors as forms of early endometrial cancer.
However, given the uniqueness of the changes, and
because one case was associated with an intramural
chorioadenoma destruens and the other with an ectopic
pregnancy, I thought that this was some form of endometrial
reaction resulting from the chorionic hormonal
stimulation.
I expected that Dr. Stewart would send me to the bibliographic
references, which I had searched in vain for
more than 2 years. His answer left me dumbfounded: “I
don’t know! Javier—you have something to study.” The
rest of the story is not for this occasion, but I have recreated
the background, development, and immediate
corollary in the form of a story for medical students,
which will soon be published (1).
The initial publication appeared in the Archives of Pathology
Archives of Pathologyin 1954 (2) and it is interesting today to recall the
very first reaction in the literature. Dr. Emil Novak, the
author of the textbook Gynecological and Obstetric Pathology,
which, during my youth was considered to be the Bible, was among other things the editor of the Survey
of Obstetrics and Gynecology. He made the following
comments when my article was published (1,3): “This is an interesting study, but one upon which it would be difficult to comment unless one had made similar studies, which no one appears to have done. . .” “While I have examined many thousands of endometria including many containing trophoblastic rest, after miscarriage hydatidiform mole, chorioadenoma destruens, or choriocarcinoma, I cannot say that I have noted the particular cellular changes which Arias- Stella has described.” “To show how foolish an objection this last statement is, I may say also that I examined many ovaries before 1921, and that not a few of them showed endometrium, but I did not appreciate the importance and the frequency of endometriosis until after Sampson’s first publication in 1921, nor did anyone else.”

学习了各位的观点,同意楼主的诊断。
特别注意到楼主提供的免疫组化结果,Ki67灶性高增殖指数,P53也有少数细胞阳性,提示存在异型增生(郑文新教授称为“子宫内膜腺体异型增生endometrial glandular dysplasia, EmGD”),不是单纯的化生性改变。
郑文新教授认为,EmGD是介于萎缩性静止期子宫内膜与EIC之间的改变,EmGD是真正意义上的癌前病变,而EIC属于早期癌。EmGD的临床处理资料有限。本例有高危因素(乳腺癌史),如果能耐受手术,建议切除子宫。

以下是引用zzz333858在2009-5-27 20:30:00的发言:
5月份在北京开妇产临床病理诊断学习班,听郑文军老师讲EIC(子宫内膜癌前病变),分两型,Ⅰ型与激素有关,Ⅱ型与P53突变有关,经常是息肉样病变组织内见异型增生的腺体,P53阳性,我觉得这个可能也是吧,如果没进一步处理可能就会发生浆液性癌。 有兴趣可搜索WENJIN ZHENG PATHOLOGY,他在个人空间有讲课的材料 |
补充一些:
子宫内膜的癌前病变包括EIN和EIC。EIN为Ⅰ型癌的前驱病变,与雌激素等因素有关。EIC为Ⅱ型癌(主要是浆液性癌)的前驱病变,与P53突变有关。
