OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) using tapered-slit membrane filter (TSF)-based chipsets for the differential diagnosis of adnexal tumors. METHODS: A total of 230 women with indeterminate …
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common condition that remains challenging to treat. We hypothesized that skin-adhesive low-level light therapy (LLLT) would be an effective treatment for OAB caused by bladder muscl…
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study were to identify the risk factors for recurrent vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VaIN)1+ and to evaluate the efficacy of laser vaporization in patients who underwent hysterectomy for the treatment of cervi…
The aim of this study was to evaluate circulating tumor cell (CTC) detection in the differential diagnosis of adnexal masses. A total of 87 preoperative women with an indeterminate adnexal mass were prospectively enrolled. Preoperative diag…
PURPOSE: We compared the predictive and prognostic values of leukocyte differential counts, systemic inflammatory (SIR) markers and cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) levels, and identified the most useful marker in patients with ovarian clear cel…
BACKGROUND: Whether endometriosis affects the prognosis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) remains controversial despite the relationship between OCCC and endometriosis. A two-center cohort study and meta-analysis were performed to inve…
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the survival impact of intraoperative tumor rupture in women with stage I clear cell carcinoma (CCC) of the ovary. METHODS: A total of 193 patients with stage I CCC of the ovary who had undergone a complete stagin…
OBJECTIVE: The objective was to examine the association of postoperative physical activity with length of stay in patients who received total laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynecologic disease. METHODS: The case group was composed of…
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to identify variables associated with treatment failure in women with menorrhagia who were treated with thermal balloon ablation (TBA) or levonorgestrel releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS), an…
► We experience one case of MZBL of MALT type in the fallopian tube. ► There was no remarkable inflammatory or infection sign. ► We report this case with a review of related literature.
OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to determine the clinical significance of serum survivin in ovarian cancer. METHODS: A total of 65 patients with ovarian tumors including 21 epithelial ovarian cancer, 22 benign epithelial ovarian tumor,…
