OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of short-term postoperative complications on oncologic outcomes for patients with epithelial ovarian cancer undergoing primary cytoreductive surgery (PCS) or interval cytoreductive surgery (ICS) with intestin…

PURPOSE: To compare the diagnostic performance of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) versus multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) for the staging of well-differentiated endometrioid endometrial cancer (EC) in potential candidates for fer…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility of an electronic symptom-tracking platform for patients recovering from ambulatory surgery. METHOD: We assessed user response to an electronic system designed to self-report symptoms. Endpoints includ…

OBJECTIVE: Endometrioid ovarian carcinomas (EOCs) comprise 5-10% of all ovarian cancers and commonly co-occur with synchronous endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC). We sought to examine the molecular characteristics of pure EOCs in patient…
observational

OBJECTIVE: Determining whether carcinomas concurrently involving endometrium and ovary are independent primary tumors (IPTs) or endometrial carcinomas with ovarian metastases (at least stage IIIA endometrial cancers, IIIA-EC) using clinicop…

OBJECTIVES: To determine if 6 versus 3cycles of adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy with or without taxane impacts survival in early stage ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). METHODS: We retrospectively identified all cases of stage I an…

Many adnexal high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSCs) may derive from microscopic precursors in the fallopian tube. By studying a series of low-stage ovarian carcinomas, we anticipated that HGSCs would be distributed in a pattern suggesting sec…

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess the rate of lymph node (LN) metastasis in comprehensively staged ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) clinically confined to the ovary and determine factors associated with LN metastasis. M…

The molecular etiology of uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) is poorly understood, which accounts for the wide disparity in outcomes among women with this disease. We examined and compared the molecular profiles of ULMS and normal myometrium (NL…

OBJECTIVE: Ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCCs) are rare, and uncertainty exists as to the optimal treatment paradigm and validity of the FIGO staging system, especially in early-stage disease. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort…

Current histologic criteria endorsed by World Health Organization for surface epithelial ovarian tumors suffer from less than optimal reproducibility and correlation with clinical outcomes. A modified approach for histologic subclassificati…

Robotic surgery is increasingly being performed for endometrial cancer. Robotic hysterectomies (RH), like traditional laparoscopic hysterectomies (LH), involve a significant amount of uterine manipulation. The use of a manipulator is though…
