Everyone knows that no disease occurs for no reason, but rather has a process of formation. Cervical cyst is a common disease that is more common in women aged 25-52, and its formation is related to the healing of cervical erosion. So how are cervical gland cysts produced?
Firstly, the stimulation of long-term chronic inflammation can lead to repeated congestion, edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and connective tissue proliferation in tissues, resulting in cervical hypertrophy.
Secondly, fibrosis of the cervix. After the inflammation is cured, congestion and edema decrease or disappear. Due to fibrosis, the cervix is completely covered with squamous epithelium, with a smooth surface and enlarged volume. Cervical glandular cysts still maintain their prominent cystic shape.
Thirdly, the cervical glandular ducts are compressed. When the gland tube is squeezed by the surrounding tissues, the gland mouth is blocked, so that the secretions in the gland tube cannot flow out, but remain inside, causing the gland cavity to expand, forming cystic masses of different sizes, called cervical gland retention cysts. The mucus contained therein is often clear and transparent, but may become cloudy and purulent due to co infection.
If there is a disease of cervical gland cyst, don't worry too much. Generally, in medicine, small scattered cervical gland cysts do not require treatment, as long as they are checked annually. However, for dense small cysts or larger cysts, surgical treatment may be considered.
