Abstract Objective To evaluate the clinical and prognostic significance of histologic transition from endometriosis to carcinoma in epithelial ovarian cancer and to determine whether ovarian carcinomas associated with incidental endomet…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the incidence and oncologic impact of intraoperative cyst rupture in apparent early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer, with a focus on the role of endometriosis in modulating surgical risk and disease behaviour. …
BACKGROUND: Malignant transformation of endometriosis is rare and most commonly involves the ovary. Extraovarian transformation, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract, is exceptional, and clear cell carcinoma (CCC) arising from intesti…

Endometriosis (EMS) is a chronic gynecological condition affecting 6-10% of reproductive-age women. These lesions, albeit of benign nature, present cancer-like features, and may progress to epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) through a multiste…
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to describe 2 types of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer: those with transitional elements (atypical endometriosis and borderline tumors) termed endometriosis-correlated or incidental benign endometriosis v…
Adenosarcomas are the rarest form of uterine sarcomas, and clinical experience with their management is still limited. Here, we reported 7 patients with uterine adenosarcoma referred to our institution, focusing on main pathologic features,…
