Extraskeletal osteosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor with an osteoid or bone matrix that develops in soft tissues that are not in contact with bone or periosteum. A 47-year-old woman presented with a subcutaneous mass in her right abdomen. …

It has become evident that somatic mutations in cancer-associated genes accumulate in the normal endometrium, but spatiotemporal understanding of the evolution and expansion of mutant clones is limited. To elucidate the timing and mechanism…

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease that affects women of reproductive age in which the uterine endometrium grows outside the uterus. Origin of the ectopic endometrium is thought to be the retrograde endometrium through the ovid…

KRAS is the most frequently mutated in ovarian endometriosis. However, it is unclear whether the KRAS mutant allele's mRNA is expressed and plays a biological role in ovarian endometriosis. Here, we performed mutation-specific RNA in situ h…

The fundamental morphology of the endometrial glands is not sufficiently understood by 2D observation because these glands have complicated winding and branching patterns. To construct a large picture of the endometrial gland structure, we …

ARID1A loss-of-function mutation accompanied by a loss of ARID1A protein expression is considered one of the most important driver events in endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. Although our recent genomic study clarified that ARID1A lo…

Summary The histological basis of the human uterine endometrium has been established by 2D observation. However, the fundamental morphology of endometrial glands is not sufficiently understood because these glands have complicated winding a…

Levonorgestrel is used worldwide as an emergency oral contraceptive. There have been occasional reports of ectopic pregnancy after oral levonorgestrel use. We present a case of ectopic tubal pregnancy after the use of oral levonorgestrel as…

PURPOSE: To retrospectively evaluate the accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in depicting posterior cul-de-sac obliteration in patients with endometriosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Institutional review board approval was not required …
