To evaluate the incidence and oncologic impact of intraoperative cyst rupture in apparent early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer, with a focus on the role of endometriosis in modulating surgical risk and …
Endometriosis is benign, but it is associated with an increased risk of clear-cell and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma. Several multivariable prediction models have been developed to identify malignant transformation or differentiate …
Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease that, despite its benign histology, displays several cancer-relevant features, including clonal expansion, somatic alteration-associated lesion evolution, tissue invasion, apoptosis resistance, immune evasion, angiogenesis, …
Background: Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancers (EAOCs), including ovarian clear cell (OCCC) and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (EnOC) subtypes, frequently exhibit transcriptomic dysregulation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling axis. While genomic aberrations are well-documented, …
To compare clinical features, treatment responses, and survival outcomes between endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) and high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), with a focus on platinum resistance.
Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancers (EAOCs), encompassing clear cell (CC) and endometrioid carcinomas (EC), constitute distinct biological entities yet lack robust biomarkers for precise classification, prognostication, and therapeutic decision-making in women. Therefore, …
This study quantifies serum/plasma interleukin-6 levels across the healthy-non-endometriosis benign-endometriosis-ovarian cancer spectrum, focusing on pooled geometric means stratified by control type.
Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder associated with pelvic pain, infertility, and an increased risk of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. Despite extensive research, its molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent disorder affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age. Increasing epidemiological and molecular evidence indicates that it may represent a precursor condition for a subset …
