Polypoid endometriosis is a rare variant characterized by mass-forming endometriosis, often mimicking malignancy. This report describes the case of a postmenopausal woman who presented with an incidental complex adnexal mass and elevated tu…

Endometriosis (ENDO) is a chronic estrogen-dependent gynecological condition that affects reproductive-age women, causing pelvic pain, infertility, and increased risk for ovarian cancer. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease with si…

Abstract Diabetes (DM) is a disease with significant morbidity and mortality and is a major public health problem worldwide. Endometriosis (ENDO) is a chronic estrogen-dependent gynecological condition that affects ~10% of reproductive-age …

Type 1 diabetes mellitus and endometriosis separately affect millions of women worldwide. Reproductive-age women diagnosed with type 1 diabetes may also suffer from endometriosis, but the asymptomatic pre-clinical period of highly variable …

Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic neoplasm in developed countries; however, updated universal guidelines are currently not available to handle specimens obtained during the surgical treatment of patients affected by this dis…

Although endometrial carcinoma (EC) is generally considered to have a good prognosis, over 20% of women with EC die of their disease, with a projected increase in both incidence and mortality over the next few decades. The aim of accurate p…

CONTEXT: Progesterone (P) resistance is a hallmark of endometriosis, but the underlying mechanism(s) for loss of P sensitivity leading to lesion establishment remains poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between Notch-…

Mesonephric adenocarcinoma most commonly arises in the cervix and is presumed to be derived from normal or hyperplastic mesonephric remnants. It is characterized by recurrent KRAS mutations and lack of PIK3CA/PTEN alterations. Adenocarcinom…

Endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EEC) is the most common malignancy of the female genital tract, partly attributable to chronic estrogen exposure secondary to increased obesity rates. Tumor stage, which in most cases is based on dep…

Patients with low-stage, low-grade endometrial adenocarcinomas have a favorable prognosis; however, a subset has a risk of recurrence and death. We were interested in evaluating patterns of myometrial invasion and correlating them with clin…

Abstract High grade ovarian serous cancer in women has been linked to the distal fallopian tube via a carcinogenic sequence of p53 mutations in both a clonally-derived precursor (p53 signature) and an early malignancy (tubal intraepithelial…
