An algorithm for the pre-operative differentiation of benign ovarian tumours based on magnetic resonance imaging interpretation in a regional core hospital: A retrospective study
CONCLUSIONS: Among four types of OTs (OEC, OMCT, OEA and OCCA), MRI interpretation was able to differentiate between Be-OTs and Bo/Ma-OTs almost perfectly. Additionally, to mitigate the difficulty in differentiating SM-OTs, OT size may be useful in combination with MRI findings, although further accumulation and analysis of OT cases is needed.PMID:38058586 | PMC:PMC10696378 | DOI:10.1016/j.eurox.2023.100260 (Source: Reproductive Biology)

Diagnostic roles of PAX8 immunohistochemistry in ovarian tumors
CONCLUSION: PAX8 expression rate was significantly higher in serous ovarian tumors than in mucinous ovarian tumors. In addition, PAX8 expression rates were significantly higher in primary ovarian cancers than in metastatic carcinomas.PMID:37742476 | DOI:10.1016/j.prp.2023.154822 (Source: Cell Research)

The presence of clear cell glands around the ovarian endometrioid cyst has an association with clear cell carcinoma
AbstractWe found some clear cell glands appeared in the endometrioid cysts (ECs) of the ovary (EC-CCG). To explore the clinicopathological features, molecular biological changes, and prognosis in EC-CCG and analyze the association with ovarian clear cell borderline tumors (CCBT) and clear cell carcinoma (CCC). We retrospectively examined 35 cases of EC-CCG, compared them to 13 cases of clear cell cystadenomas, 14 cases of CCBT, and 49 cases of CCC. We analyzed the differences in clinicopathological features and prognosis between the four groups. Data on clinicopathology and survival were gathered. Immunohistochemistry (IHC...

Magnetic resonance imaging findings of cystic ovarian tumors: major differential diagnoses in five types frequently encountered in daily clinical practice
AbstractThere are many types of ovarian tumors, and these different types often form cystic masses with a similar appearance, which can make their differentiation difficult. However, with the exclusion of rare ovarian tumors, the number of ovarian tumors encountered in daily practice is somewhat fixed. It goes without saying that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful for differentiating ovarian tumors. In this review, we summarize the differential diagnoses for each of the five types of MRI findings commonly encountered in daily practice. First, unilocular cystic masses without mural nodules/solid components include b...

Coexistence of malignant ovarian Brenner tumor and borderline mucinous cystadenoma, combined with primary uterine corpus endometrioid carcinoma: A case report and literature review
Oncol Lett. 2022 Jun 22;24(2):272. doi: 10.3892/ol.2022.13392. eCollection 2022 Aug.ABSTRACTMalignant Brenner tumor (MBT) of the ovary is a rare malignant ovarian tumor, whereas uterine corpus endometrioid carcinoma (UEC) constitutes one of the most common malignant tumors of the female reproductive system. The present study reported on a case of the coexistence of ovarian MBT and borderline mucinous cystadenoma combined with primary UEC. Therefore, the present case is a synchronous primary cancer of both ovary and endometrium. Although synchronous primary cancers of the endometrium and ovary are relatively uncommon, they ...
