ObjectiveOvarian low-grade serous carcinomas are thought to evolve in a stepwise fashion from ovarian epithelial inclusions, serous cystadenomas, and serous borderline tumors. Our previous study with clinicopathological approach showed that…

OBJECTIVE: To study the expression of the gene associated with retinoid-interferon (IFN)-induced mortality 19 (GRIM-19) in the endometrial tissue of patients with adenomyosis and to describe the possible pathogenic mechanisms of this phenom…
