Intratumoral heterogeneity is intrinsically comprised of molecular alterations of tumor cells and extrinsically from interconnections with microenvironments. This study explores the spatial heterogeneity of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCC…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a prevalent gynecological condition that primarily affects women of reproductive age. When the gastrointestinal system is involved, it can lead to bowel dysfunction and pose diagnostic challenges. AIMS: To pres…
BACKGROUND: We investigated the agreement and accuracy of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with postoperative pathological characteristics and stages of endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (EEC). METHODS: We recruited 527 women…
DNA damage response (DDR) is important for maintaining genomic integrity of the cell. Aberrant DDR pathways lead to accumulation of DNA damage, genomic instability and malignant transformations. Gene mutations have been proven to be associa…
AIM: To retrospectively investigate the pre-operative clinical factors and ultrasonographic features that influence the accuracy of the intraoperative frozen section (IFS) of ovarian tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Women with ovarian tumors …
Leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) is a rare clinical condition characterized by the development of multiple smooth muscle-like nodules in the peritoneal or abdominal cavity. Here, we report a case of a patient who was diagnosed …
Ovarian cancer is a cancer of high mortality. Aberrant gene methylation of tumor suppressor genes has been shown to be related to the development of malignancy. This study aimed to investigate the methylation of various genes in ovarian cle…
The alpha-folate receptor (α-FR) is highly-expressed in various non-mucinous tumors of epithelial origin, including ovarian carcinoma. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between alpha-folate receptor (α-FR) and the cl…
