Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a rare and aggressive gynecologic malignancy that has only been recognized in the last decade. It arises in the endometrium, ovaries, and other extrauterine sites (often in association with endometri…
Background: There are currently no effective screening measures to detect early or occult tubo-ovarian cancers, resulting in late-stage detection and high mortality. This work explores whether an optical imaging catheter can detect early-st…
It is well recognized that some patients with endometrioid gynecological cancers have tumors arising in multiple sites (ovary, endometrium, and endometriosis) at the time of diagnosis. Molecular analysis has helped discern whether these mul…
The SWI/SNF (mating type SWItch/Sucrose NonFermentable) chromatin remodeling complexes interact with histones and transcription factors to modulate chromatin structure and control gene expression. These evolutionarily conserved multisubunit…
Abstract Both clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCOC) and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (ENOC) are associated with ovarian endometriotic cysts, which is believed to be their precursor lesion. However, genomic evidence is lacking which could ex…
Endocervical adenocarcinomas (ECAs) are currently classified according to the 2014 World Health Organization (WHO) system, which is predominantly based on descriptive morphologic characteristics, considers factors bearing minimal etiologica…
Abstract Both clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCOC) and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (ENOC) are associated with ovarian endometriotic cysts, which is believed to be the precursor lesion of these cancers. Women with endometriotic cysts have …
The International Endocervical Adenocarcinoma Criteria and Classification was developed to separate endocervical adenocarcinomas (ECAs) into 2 main categories on the basis of morphology such as human papilloma virus-associated (HPVA) and no…
We sought to classify endocervical adenocarcinomas (ECAs) based on morphologic features linked to etiology (ie, human papillomavirus [HPV] infection), unlike the World Health Organization 2014 classification. The International Endocervical …
The etiology of deep dyspareunia in endometriosis is unclear. Our objective was to determine whether nerve bundle density in the cul-de-sac/uterosacrals (zone II) is associated with deep dyspareunia in women with endometriosis. We conducted…
