BACKGROUND: There is a need for diagnostic tests for screening, triaging and staging of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Glycoproteomics of blood samples has shown promise for biomarker discovery. METHODS: We applied glycoproteomics to ser…
Uterine clear cell cancer (UCCC) is a rare but aggressive disease. Due to its rarity, large, prospective studies focused on UCCC are exceedingly difficult therefore available data are generally from small, retrospective studies. There is al…
OBJECTIVES: Complete cytoreduction of ovarian cancer often requires excision or ablation of bowel serosa implants. Both argon beam coagulator (ABC) and thermal plasma energy (TPE) (PlasmaJet; PlasmaSurgical, Roswell, Ga) have been used to a…
Malignant transformation of a mature cystic teratoma (MCT) is an infrequent, often asymptomatic event. We report the first example of a struma ovarii with a focus of follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (a), mucinous adenocarci…
Several proangiogenic/proinflammatory factors involved in endometrial cancer are regulated by leptin, but the signaling mechanisms responsible for these leptin-induced actions are largely unknown. Here, we report that in benign (primary and…
