Abstract [Introduction]Recent studies have revealed pervasive mutations in cancer-related genes within many normal tissues, including the endometrium. Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is hypothesized to arise from endometrioti…

Transcriptomic classification methods have been proposed for ovarian clear cell carcinoma. However, their clinical significance and association with pathologically evaluated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) remain unclear. We establish…

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) is an aggressive subtype of ovarian cancer that is resistant to conventional chemotherapy, resulting in poor prognosis. CCC develops from endometriosis, which exposes tumor cells to a hypoxic microenvironm…

[Introduction] Recent studies have revealed pervasive mutations affecting cancer-related genes in many normal tissues, including the endometrium, suggesting their role in cancer development. Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is…

Cervical endometriosis is a rare benign condition characterized by ectopic endometrial glands and stroma within the cervix. Its clinical and imaging features resemble those of cervical adenocarcinoma, making preoperative diagnosis difficult…

The combination therapy of lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (LP) is increasingly recognized as an important second-line regimen for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (EC). However, the safety and efficacy of conversion surgery with low …

A well-differentiated endometrioid carcinoma at the site of extra-uterine/ovarian endometriosis complicates the differentiation between an uncommon metastatic pattern from a corpus cancer and a synchronous primary tumor originating from adj…

Primary peritoneal cancer has characteristics similar to high-grade serous carcinomas of ovarian and fallopian tube origin. However, the relationship between endometriosis and primary peritoneal cancer is not well understood. This study foc…

Abstract Introduction: The epithelial cells of the endometrium undergo rapid proliferation and shedding each month under the influence of estrogen and progesterone. Recent studies have demonstrated pervasive driver mutations in the endometr…

Clear cell carcinoma (CCC) of the ovary exhibits a unique morphology and clinically malignant behavior. The eosinophilic cytoplasm includes abundant glycogen. Although the growth is slow, the prognosis is poor owing to resistance to convent…

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) exhibits an association with endometriosis, resistance to oxidative stress, and poor prognosis owing to its resistance to conventional platinum-based chemotherapy. A greater understanding of the molecular …

Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LG-ESS) is a rare malignant disease and demonstrates various patterns in preoperative imaging. Therefore, accurate diagnosis is important. Given its unique form, we report a case of LG-ESS with a nodul…

Endometriosis is a precancerous condition for endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC). In the present study, conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MR relaxometry were used to examine a case of clear cell carcinoma that ar…

Somatic mutations in the ARID1A tumor-suppressor gene have been frequently identified in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) cases. BAF250a encoded by ARID1A is a member of the SWI/SNF complex, but the expression and mutation status of other…
