ObjectiveTo evaluate endometrial cancer (EC) risk assessment and early detection strategies in high-risk populations, we designed a large, prospective cohort study of women undergoing endometrial evaluation to assess risk factors and collec…
ObjectiveWe aimed to assess whether endometrial cancer (EC) can be detected in shed DNA collected with vaginal tampon by analyzing copy number, methylation markers, and mutations.MethodsTampons were collected prior to hysterectomy from 38 E…
ObjectiveWe demonstrate the feasibility of detecting EC by combining minimally-invasive specimen collection techniques with sensitive molecular testing.MethodsPrior to hysterectomy for EC or benign indications, women collected vaginal pool …
Epithelial stromal cells represent a major cellular component of human uterine endometrium that is subject to tight hormonal regulation. Through cell-cell contacts and/or paracrine mechanisms, stromal cells play a significant role in the ma…
Syncytin-1 plays a critical role in the maintenance of normal pregnancy by mediating the formation of syncytiotrophoblasts through a fosugenic action. Encoded by the human endogenous retrovirus envelope gene HERV-W, syncytin-1 trophoblast-s…
ObjectiveTo estimate the incidence of synchronous endometrial cancer (EC) and ovarian cancer (OC) in the female population, among all women with EC, and in women under 50 years of age with EC, and to identify factors associated with synchro…
BackgroundThe peritoneum of the cul-de-sac is frequently affected in advanced ovarian cancer patients. Stripping of the pelvic peritoneum (SoP) combined with rectosigmoidectomy (RS) in patients with confluent tumor are safe techniques that …
OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to examine surgical management of patients with ovarian remnant syndrome. STUDY DESIGN: Data were abstracted from records of patients with a history of bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy who were treated s…
OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to evaluate the prevalence and comorbidity of acute postoperative pancreatitis after gynecologic and obstetric surgery. STUDY DESIGN: We reviewed the Mayo Medical Center surgical database (January 1953-January 1997)…
From 20 patients with ovarian carcinoma (4 with stage I and 16 with stage III disease), we obtained peripheral blood mononuclear cells (MNC) from each, tumor-associated MNC from 9, and ascitic MNC from 6. These cells were stimulated with in…
Serum CA 125 levels were determined in 64 women with benign ovarian lesions, 92 women with uterine fundal lesions, and six patients who had negative second-look laparotomy for epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Of those with benign lesions, 13 o…
