For endometrial cancer patients, lymphadenectomy is recommended to exclude rarely metastasized cancer cells. This procedure is performed even in patients with low risk of recurrence despite the risk of complications such as lymphedema. A me…

BACKGROUND: Uterine leiomyomas are common uterine tumors, and typical cases of leiomyoma are easily diagnosed by imaging study. However, uterine leiomyomas are often altered by degenerative changes, which can cause difficulty and confusion …

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease. Abnormally biosynthesized estrogens in endometriotic tissues induce the growth of the lesion and worsen endometriosis-associated pelvic pain. Dienogest (DNG), a selective progesterone receptor…

CONTEXT: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease, and estrogen is overproduced by abnormally elevated aromatase in endometriotic tissues. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) is a transcriptional …

INTRODUCTION: GPR30 is a seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled estrogen receptor that regulates endometrial cellular responses to estrogen. GPR30 is often highly expressed in cancer cells from aggressive tumors. The aim of this study was to…

OBJECTIVES: G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30) is a 7-transmembrane estrogen receptor that functions alongside traditional estrogen receptors to regulate the cellular responses to estrogen. Recent studies suggest that GPR30 expression is…

Cancer stem-like cell subpopulations, referred to as "side-population" (SP) cells, have been identified in several tumors based on their ability to efflux the fluorescent dye Hoechst 33342. Although SP cells have been identified in the norm…

We report two cases of perianal endometriosis in which we were greatly assisted by endoanal ultrasonography. Patient 1 was a 43-year-old woman with perianal pain. Endosonography showed a hypoechoic mass in the anterior perianal region witho…

Of 42 endometrioid carcinomas of the ovary examined with Grimelius staining, 19 tumors were found to have argyrophil cells. Argyrophil cells were subgrouped into two types according to the distribution of the argyrophil granules. Type I cel…
