A case of synchronous serous ovarian cancer and uterine serous endometrial intraepithelial carcinoma
BACKGROUND: Serous endometrial intraepithelial carcinoma (SEIC) is now considered to represent an early stage of uterine serous carcinoma (USC). It is an intraepithelial lesion but has been reported to cause extrauterine metastases. We repo…

The pathogenesis of endometriosis, a chronic painful gynecological disease characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue located outside of the uterus and often adhering to the peritoneum, is known to be estrogen dependent. However, t…

Although endometriosis is suspected to be a cause of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), the mechanism(s) underlying this process have not been elucidated. Recently, androgens were shown to promote oocyte maturation and to play a role in…

PURPOSE: We performed TaqMan genotyping assays of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type II (AMHRII) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in order to investigate how their frequency and distribution affect i…
