Hereditární nádorové syndromy s možnou manifestací v oblasti ženského vnitřního genitálu představují heterogenní skupinu onemocnění. Mezi dva nejčastější syndromy patří syndrom hereditárního karcinomu prsu a ovarií a Lynchův syndrom. Méně časté syndromy zahrnují syndrom predispozice k maligním rabdoidním nádorům, Cowdenův syndrom, komplex tuberózní sklerózy, DICER1 syndrom, syndrom névoidního bazocelulárního karcinomu, Peutz-Jeghersův syndrom, von Hippelova-Lindauova choroba a syndrom hereditární leiomyomatózy a renálního karcinomu. Cílem následujícího sdělení je podat přehled problematiky hereditárních nádorových syndromů s manifestací v oblasti ženského genitálu se zaměřením na jejich přehled, charakteristiky nádorů, které se v souvislosti s jednotlivými syndromy vyskytují, postup při vyšetřování profylakticky odstraněných tkání a orgánů a problematiku screeningu Lynchova syndromu.

Hereditary tumor syndromes with a possible manifestation in the female internal genital tract represent a heterogeneous group of diseases. The two most common entities are the hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, and the Lynch syndrome. The less common syndromes include the rhabdoid tumor predisposition syndrome, Cowden syndrome, tuberous sclerosis complex, DICER1 syndrome, nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, von Hippel-Lindau disease, and hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer syndrome. The goal of this manuscript is to provide a comprehensive overview of those hereditary tumor syndromes which can manifest in the area of the female genital system, with an emphasis on their summary, the characteristics of the tumors which can develop in association with these syndromes, and the approach to the processing of prophylactically removed tissues and organs. The issue of Lynch syndrome screening is also discussed.

Phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) is a tumour suppressor gene implicated in tumorigenesis of melanoma, with distinct cytoplasmic and nuclear functions. Cytoplasmic PTEN negatively regulates the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, while nuclear PTEN works as a tumour suppressor. Clinical data suggest that the loss of PTEN function in melanoma is associated with aggressive tumour behaviour. We performed a comprehensive analysis of PTEN in 112 primary cutaneous melanomas including immunohistochemical (IHC), fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), next-generation sequencing (NGS), and epigenetic analysis. The goal of our study was to: (a) correlate PTEN expression with selected clinico-pathological variables, and assess its prognostic significance; (b) correlate molecular aberrations with PTEN expression to consider the utility of immunohistochemical analysis of PTEN protein expression for screening PTEN genetic alterations; (c) review the literature and evaluate the PTEN expression level in melanoma with respect to possible therapeutic targeting. Our results showed that PTEN molecular alterations were present in 4/20 (20 %) cases with a loss of expression, 3/11 (27 %) cases with clonal-like expression, and 1/81 (1 %) cases with positive PTEN expression. No PTEN promoter methylation was found in any of the cases. Even though the value of our observation is limited by the low number of cases fully evaluated by IHC (112 cases), FISH (19 cases) and NGS (30 cases), our data suggest that IHC is not an appropriate method for the screening of PTEN genetic alterations. Our survival analysis suggests that patients with positive cytoplasmic PTEN expression show better disease-free survival (P < 0.05).

We are reporting a case of endometrial lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) in a 63-year-old female. Microscopically, the tumor consisted of groups of tumor cells surrounded by dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate. Immunohistochemically, the tumour cells were positive for cytokeratins AE1/AE3, EMA, PAX8, p16, and estrogen receptors. Protein p53 showed an aberrant type of expression. Molecular genetic analysis revealed mutations in the TP53 and PIKP53CA genes. Based on our results, we believe that the tumor represents an unusual morphological variant of endometrial serous carcinoma.To the best of our knowledge, only six cases of LELC arising in endometrium have been reported in literature to date.

Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β is a transcription factor which plays a crucial role during ontogenesis in the differentiation of visceral endoderm from primitive endoderm, and is especially important for the normal development of the kidney, urogenital tract, gastrointestinal tract, liver, and pancreas. Despite the growing knowledge about the potential involvement of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β in the process of carcinogenesis, the exact underlying mechanism that would explain its rather varied effects in different tumours has not been sufficiently investigated. Most of the data regarding the significance of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β arise from genome- wide association studies and is concerned with the influence of single-nucleotide polymorphisms of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β on either the increased or decreased susceptibility to certain types of cancer. However, the influence of both the germinal and somatic mutations of this gene on the process of carcinogenesis is still poorly understood. According to current data, in some tumours hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β acts as a protooncogene, while in others as a tumour suppressor gene, although the reasons for this are not clear. The exact incidence of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β mutations and the spectrum of tumours in which they may play a role in the process of carcinogenesis remain unknown. From the practical point of view, immunohistochemical expression of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β can be used in differential diagnostics of certain tumours, especially clear cell carcinoma. In our article we review the current knowledge regarding the significance of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β in carcinogenesis.
