Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a subtype of ovarian cancer with a poor prognosis that often shows resistance to chemotherapy. This study retrospectively analyzed 247 patients with OCCC who were admitted to the Cancer Hospital of the…

AIM: This study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the detection of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders in a single tertiary care setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All el…

Endometriosis (EM) is a non-cancerous disease that exhibits certain tumor-like properties. While hormonal therapies and surgical excision are standard treatments with proven efficacy in alleviating EM symptoms, they are often accompanied by…

Background: Endometriosis results in dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain and infertility in reproductive-age women. However, no effective treatment methods have been applied to the disease, and the pathogenesis of endometriosis i…

PURPOSE: To test the expression profile of transient receptor potential channels (TRPs) in adenomyosis patients and evaluate the effects of primidone on tamoxifen-induced adenomyosis mice. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study included in vivo …

OBJECTIVES: To comprehensively describe MRI characteristics of serous endometrial carcinoma (SEC) and distinguish SEC from endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC). METHODS: We retrospectively recruited 62 patients from a tertiary center w…

PURPOSE: To determine the differences in 3D shape features between septate uterus (SU) and normal uterus and to train a network to automatically delineate uterine cavity on 3D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS: A total of 43 patien…

BACKGROUND: Hysterectomy places a considerable physical and mental burden on young female patients with congenital cervical and complete vaginal atresia. Thus, it is necessary to develop a method to detach the obstruction and simultaneously…

OBJECTIVES: The effect of telomerase inhibitor BIBR1532 on endometriotic cells was investigated to explore the inhibitory effect of targeting telomerase on endometriosis. DESIGN: In vitro primary cell culture study. Participants/Materials:…

Endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease in women of reproductive age and seriously affects women's health. To analyze the involvement of sex hormone receptors in endometriosis development, we performed bioinformatics analysis using fou…

Vulvar and vaginal lesions representing a wide spectrum of diseases in female lower genital tract diseases make up a small part of all gynecological etiologies. Many of them are rare etiologies and are reported in case-reports studies. Tran…

BACKGROUND: Hysterectomy places a huge physical and mental burden on young female patients with congenital cervical and complete vaginal atresia. Thus, it is necessary to develop a method to detach the obstruction and simultaneously preserv…

Abstract Purpose To test the expression profile of transient receptor potential channels (TRPs) in adenomyosis patients and evaluate the effects of primidone on tamoxifen-induced adenomyosis mice. Methods Eutopic endometrium from adenomyosi…

BACKGROUND/AIM: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent disease characterized by the ectopic implantation and growth of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of endome…

Ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCCs) are a subtype of ovarian epithelial tumors that arise from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMs). These tumors have distinctive molecular features, high malignant potential, low sensitivit…

INTRODUCTION: Endometriosis (EM) is an aggressive, pleomorphic, and common gynecological disease. Its clinical presentation includes abnormal menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and infertility, which seriously affect the patient's quality of life.…

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer is the most women malignancy in the whole world. It is difficult to differentiate ovarian cancers from ovarian borderline tumors because of some similar imaging findings.Radiomics study may help clinicians to make…

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…

Background: Uterine artery embolization (UAE), as an interventional procedure, was considered a conservative treatment for symptomatic uterus fibroids or adenomyosis, especially for preserving uterus. Case Report: Here we present a case of …

Background: Growing evidence has indicated that interleukin-37 (IL-37) is a potential anticancer molecule that mainly plays an inhibiting role in different kinds of cancers, but data for the role of IL-37 on cell apoptosis in cancers remain…

To evaluate the performance of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM)-diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in differentiating uterine fibroids from focal adenomyosises. Twenty-five uterine fibroids and 21 focal adenomyosises prospectively underwen…

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine, which may affect nearly 60% of women in reproductive age. Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) defined as an endometriotic lesion penetrating into the retr…

BACKGROUND: To investigate the 3.0-Tesla (3 T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of primary adnexal lesions for discriminating benign from malignant lesions. METHODS: One hundred thirty-nine patients with pathologically prov…
