Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) is a distinct histological subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer characterized by unique biological behavior and heterogeneous clinicopathological features. In contrast with other epithelial ovarian maligna…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in two cases of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) revealed solid masses with extensive central necrosis. At the interface between the necrotic and viable solid components in the central portion of …

A woman in her seventies presented with mucous hematochezia. Colonoscopy revealed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma in the upper rectum. Immunohistochemical staining showed CK7 positivity and CK20/CDX2 negativity, findings atypical for…

An 80-year-old man with jaundice and fatigue was referred to our hospital. A laboratory examination revealed increased levels of hepatobiliary enzymes, and CA19-9 levels increased to 29,512 U/mL. Based on the findings of imaging examination…

PurposeTo retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic potential of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based features and radiomics analysis (RA)-based features for discriminating ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) from endometrioid carcinoma (EC)…

Abstract Purpose It is unknown whether surgery for endometriosis or recurrence of endometriosis affects obstetric outcomes. Methods A total of 208 pregnant women with a history of endometriosis were analyzed. Patients who had endometriomas …
