The clinical significance of coexistence of endometriosis (EM) in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) has not yet been determined. The aim of the present study was to analyze the correlation of endometriosis with clinicopathological factors …

gene remains to be determined. The aim of the present study was to assess whether BAF250a expression had an impact on the clinical features of CCA. A total of 97 cases of CCA treated at a single institution were enrolled in the present stud…

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to compare low-dose dienogest with low-dose danazol for the long-term treatment of adenomyosis because evidence regarding the effects of its long-term use is scarce. METHODS: We compared 20 pati…

Ovarian clear-cell adenocarcinoma (CCA) is known to be a type of cancer in humans with a high frequency of expression of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), and glucose transporter 1 (Glut1). In thi…

Experimental endometriosis in rats was induced by autotransplanting the uterine endometrium to the peritoneum. In all rats, endometrial implants developed into endometriotic tissues similar to those in humans about 2 weeks after transplanta…

Recent studies have shown that platelet-derived growth factors and their receptors are frequently co-expressed in ovarian cancers. Herein, we investigated the role of the platelet-derived growth factor pathway in the development of ovarian …

We occasionally encountered clear cell adenofibromatous (CCAF) components coexisting in the ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCA). To reveal the clinicopathologic significance of CCAF components in CCA, we classified 67 cases of surgicall…

Objectives: To determine whether peripheral T lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokines change during in‐vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF‐ET) cycles and to evaluate them with regard to pregnancy status and types of infertility. Me…
