Ovarian mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) is a rare cancer subtype. We describe a patient with ovarian MLA wherein liver metastases developed 1 month after surgery. A phenotypic analysis of the tumor was performed to identify molecular …
This study aimed to clarify the genetic features of endometrioid-type endometrial cancer arising in adenomyosis (EC-AIA) using targeted sequencing and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for both carcinoma and adjacent adenomyosis tissues. We identi…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Atypical endometriosis is reported to possess a precancerous potential attributed to premalignant changes characterized by cytological atypia and architecture proliferation. Although the coexistence of atypical end…
We aimed to retrospectively analyze the risk factors of a continuous dienogest (DNG) therapy for serious unpredictable bleeding in patients with symptomatic adenomyosis. This is a retrospective study based on data extracted from medical rec…
PURPOSE: Mural nodules and papillary projections can be seen in benign ovarian endometriosis (OE) and malignant transformation of OE (endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer [EAOC]), which can pose a challenging diagnostic dilemma to clinic…
Atypical endometriosis is reported to possess a precancerous potential attributed to premalignant changes characterized by cytological atypia and architecture proliferation. Moreover, the coexistence of atypical endometriosis and neoplasms …
Two histologic types, clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EAC), are the common histology in ovarian cancer patients who have associated endometriosis. However, both tumor types have distinct clinicopathological chara…
Inflammation plays a role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinogenesis might be promoted through oxidative stress-induced increased genomic instability, aberrant methylation, and aberrant chromatin r…
This review summarizes data from recent molecular genetic and epidemiology studies of the generic term 'female pelvic cancer'. The English-language literature was reviewed for genetic, epigenetic, epidemiologic and environmental risk factor…
ObjectiveEpithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal pelvic gynecologic cancer. Clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EAC) of the ovary have been associated with endometriosis, thus indicating that endometriosis…
In the ovary, clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and endometrioid adenocarcinoma occur in the setting of endometriosis. In this review, we discuss the role of innate immune responses, specifically endogenous ligands (also known as "alarmins"), thei…
Endometriosis affects an estimated 10% of women in the reproductive-age group. Here, we review current knowledge on molecular genesis of endometriosis-associated epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). This article reviews the English language …
Study objectiveTo estimate the efficacy of the vasopressin injection technique for laparoscopic cystectomy of ovarian endometriomas with regard to operative time and coagulation events.DesignProspective study (Canadian Task Force Classifica…
The purpose of this study was to determine whether Akt and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), downstream targets of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, are activated in endometriosis and ovarian cancer specimens. We measured total and phospho…
