Endometriosis is a common condition, with the ovary being the most common anatomic site. Endometriosis-particularly in the ovary-is associated with a risk of malignant progression, with a histologic spectrum of lesions from benign to malign…
The diagnosis of atypical hyperplasia/endometrioid intraepithelial neoplasm (AH/EIN) within endometrial polyps (EMPs) often poses a diagnostic conundrum. Our previous studies demonstrated that a panel of immunohistochemical (IHC) markers co…
The endometrium is unique as an accessible anatomic location that can be repeatedly biopsied and where diagnostic biopsies do not extirpate neoplastic lesions. We exploited these features to retrospectively characterize serial genomic alter…
The diagnosis of endometrioid intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) is challenging owing to limited sampling, hormonal status, and other confounding histologic variables. Markers such as PTEN or PAX2 can delineate EIN in some cases, but are not w…
Endometrial cancer--the most common malignancy of the female reproductive tract--arises from the specialized epithelial cells that line the inner surface of the uterus. Although significant advances have been made in our understanding of th…
