Safety of fertility sparing management in invasive mucinous ovarian carcinoma
CONCLUSIONS: Fertility-sparing surgery in stage I MOC is not associated with worse outcomes compared to radical surgery and is reasonable to offer to those with early stage disease who wish to retain fertility.PMID:37182433 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygyno.2023.05.003 (Source: Gynecologic Oncology)

Treatments for relapsed, BRCA-wild type, platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer: A systematic review and network meta-analysis
Epithelial ovarian cancer includes different histotypes: high-grade serous, low-grade serous, mucinous, clear cell, and endometrioid. The aim of ovarian cancer treatment is complete remission through surgery and the administration of chemotherapy (CT), usually carboplatin in combination with paclitaxel +/- bevacizumab). First-line treatment for advanced ovarian cancer can be followed by relapse (occurring in approximately 70% of patients within 3 years of first-line treatment)1 and is characterized by a dismal prognosis for stage III (5-year survival rate:20%) and stage IV (5-year survival rate:5%)2.

A Clinical and Immunopathological Analysis of Carcinoma of the Ovary with an Emphasis on Post-chemotherapy Histopathologic Changes
AbstractOvarian cancers are a heterogeneous group of malignant tumors that differ with respect to pathogenesis, morphology, molecular features, and behavior. Pathologists and clinicians need to be aware of the advances in diagnosis and the changes which occur after chemotherapy to offer the optimal treatment to each patient. The present work aims to study the morphologic and immunohistochemical (IHC) profile of primary ovarian cancers with an assessment of post-chemotherapy changes. A total of 51 cases were included in the study from June 2017 to June 2019 (prospective and retrospective). The demographic and clinical detai...

Nuclear receptor co-repressor NCOR2 and its relation to GPER with prognostic impact in ovarian cancer
CONCLUSION: Our results support the hypothesis that nuclear co-repressors such as NCOR2 may influence the transcription of target genes in EOC such as GPER. Understanding the role of nuclear co-repressors on signaling pathways will allow a better understanding of the factors involved in prognosis and clinical outcome of EOC patients.PMID:37131060 | DOI:10.1007/s00432-023-04708-z (Source: Clin Med Res)

UK consensus recommendations for clinical management of cancer risk for women with germline pathogenic variants in cancer predisposition genes: RAD51C, RAD51D, BRIP1 and PALB2
Germline pathogenic variants (GPVs) in the cancer predisposition genes BRCA1, BRCA2, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, BRIP1, PALB2, RAD51D and RAD51C are identified in approximately 15% of patients with ovarian cancer (OC). While there are clear guidelines around clinical management of cancer risk in patients with GPV in BRCA1, BRCA2, MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6, there are few guidelines on how to manage the more moderate OC risk in patients with GPV in BRIP1, PALB2, RAD51D and RAD51C, with clinical questions about appropriateness and timing of risk-reducing gynaecological surgery. Furthermore, while recognition of RAD51C and RAD51D as OC predis...

The robotic future of minimally invasive cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneal surface malignancies
Chin Clin Oncol. 2023 Mar 13:cco-22-118. doi: 10.21037/cco-22-118. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has been increasingly utilized for peritoneal surface malignancies. This has been commonly utilized for a variety of neoplasms, but, especially mucinous neoplasms of the appendix, ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer and mesothelioma. Traditionally, CRS/HIPEC has been performed as an open, extensive operation associated with prolonged hospitalization. However, when the peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) is small (<10), minimally ...
