Ovarian seromucinous tumors (SMBTs) are relatively rare, and their carcinogenesis is largely unknown. In this study, the molecular features of SMBTs in Japan are assessed. DNA was extracted from microdissected paraffin-embedded sections fro…
Endometriosis-harboring cancer-associated somatic mutations of PIK3CA and KRAS provides new opportunities for studying the multistep processes responsible for the functional and molecular changes in this disease. We aimed to establish a nov…
Malignant transformation of extraovarian endometriosis is rare, with the carcinogenesis mechanism unclear. To clarify the actionable variants of rare-site endometriosis-associated cancer (RSEAC), we performed whole-exome sequencing for the …
The acceptance of MEA in Japan is well demand due to its outstanding effectiveness and safety. Infrequently, a repeat MEA or hysterectomy is needed for recurrent menorrhagia in case of failure ablation. The reasons of recurrent menorrhagia …
Ovarian cancer has the worst prognosis among gynecological cancers. Thus, new ovarian cancer treatment strategies are needed. Currently, immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody are attracting attention worldwide. The F…
We report a case of sigmoid endometriosis diagnosed preoperatively based on endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) findings. A 42-year-old female came to us with left lower abdominal pain and bloating that had started…

Ovarian endometrioid borderline tumors (EBTs) are extremely rare, and are thought to be precursors of endometrioid carcinoma, beginning as adenofibroma or endometriosis and progressing in a slow, stepwise manner. In endometrioid carcinomas,…
The aim of the present study was to clarify the role of autophagy in cisplatin (CDDP) sensitivity in OCCCs and the role of Beclin 1 in OCCC progression. Autophagy was measured using: i) western blot analysis of LC3 and p62 and ii) microscop…
In this study, we examined the clinical significance of KRAS and MAPK1 amplification and assessed whether these amplified genes were potential therapeutic targets in type II ovarian carcinoma. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization, immun…
A 16-year-old woman presented with chest pain on 2 days before the onset of menstruation and was referred to our hospital because of a pneumothorax. She was diagnosed as spontaneous penumothorax and surgical treatment was performed. Thoraco…
UNLABELLED: We examined the effect of experimental endometriosis (EE) on natural killer (NK) activities and fertilizability in the rat. EE was induced by autotransplantation of an endometrial fragment to the peritoneal wall. As a sham, abdo…
This study was performed to elucidate whether endometriotic lesions can affect peripheral blood lymphocyte-subsets. Changes of lymphocyte-subsets of normal healthy women and patients with uterine myoma or endometriosis before and after oper…
