Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a benign smooth muscle growth originating in the uterus that extends into the lumen of venous or lymphatic vessels beyond the myoma. The tumour may enter the inferior vena cava (IVC) or the heart. For IVL…

To identify credible causal risk variants (CCVs) associated with different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we performed genome-wide association analysis for 470,825 genotyped and 10,163,797 imputed SNPs in 25,981 EOC cases an…

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) have the potential to improve risk stratification. Joint estimation of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) effects in models could improve predictive performance over standard…

High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is the most prevalent and aggressive subtype of ovarian cancer. The large degree of clinical heterogeneity within HGSC has justified deviations from the traditional one-size-fits-all clinical management ap…

Barriers to care for women with low-grade endometrial cancer and morbid obesity: a qualitative study
OBJECTIVE: Obesity is a major risk factor for low-grade endometrial cancer. The surgical management of patients with obesity is challenging, and they may face unique barriers to accessing care. We completed a qualitative study to understand…

Abstract Introduction and Objectives: It is evident that ovarian cancer (OvCa) is not a single disease but is made up of several distinct subtypes, including serous, endometrioid, clear cell and mucinous. The gold-standard biomarker CA125 p…

Total laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) is a minimally invasive technique, which results in comparable morbidity and better cosmesis compared with total abdominal hysterectomy. The literature is discrepant as to whether it is associated with a…

Adenomyosis is commonly seen in association with endometrial adenocarcinoma where it may or may not be involved by malignancy. This study of grade 1 endometrioid adenocarcinoma investigates whether patients with cancer-positive adenomyosis …

This study investigated the expression of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) in a cohort of ovarian serous carcinomas by immunohistochemistry with regard to outcome, clinicopathologic parameters, proliferation as assessed …
