OBJECTIVE
A patient was admitted for menopause for 2 years and abnormal vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain for 2 months. Gynecological examination revealed uterine atrophy without abnormal findings in the bilateral adnexa. CA125 and CEA levels were normal. The patient underwent laparoscopically
Fallopian tube cancer is the less frequent gynecological cancer. It occurs typically between 40 and 65 years old. Diagnosis is usually achieved earlier than in ovarian cancer cases, due to early symptoms (typically abdominal pain, hydro-hematorrhea and adnexal mass). Preoperative correct diagnosis
Primary fallopian tube carcinoma (PFTC) is a rare gynecological malignancy with the following characteristics: its preoperative diagnosis is easy to miss or delay because of a lack of specific symptoms and signs; it is difficult to distinguish from serous epithelial ovarian cancer or primary
Introduction: 50-70% of epithelial ovarian cancers overexpress epidermal growth factor receptor, and its expression has been correlated with poor prognosis. We conducted a phase Ib/II trial to examine the efficacy, safety, and toxicity of
OBJECTIVE
The primary objective was to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of IV docetaxel and IP oxaliplatin in women with recurrent ovarian (OV), fallopian tube (FT) or peritoneal (PP) cancer. Secondary objectives included response rate, time to progression,
With an incidence of 0.1-1.0% of all genital malignancies, primary fallopian tube carcinoma is an extremely uncommon neoplasm of the female genital tract. We report a 58-year-old postmenopausal woman with primary fallopian tube carcinoma confined to the right fallopian tube in primary stage pT2a pN0
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study is to report that the primary fallopian tube cancer can be presented as a tubo-ovarian abscess preoperatively.
METHODS
A patient with a preoperative diagnosis of a tubo-ovarian abscess with abdominal pain, tenderness and an elevated fever with leukocytes underwent
BACKGROUND
Pathological changes of uterine adnexa are frequently encountered in patients after solid-organ transplantation. The aim of the study was to evaluate the incidence of malignancies among recipients operated with the diagnosis of adnexal tumor with or without clinical symptoms.
METHODS
We
BACKGROUND
Borderline paratubal cysts are rare entities. These tumors are identified as epithelial proliferation without stromal invasion.
METHODS
A 19-year-old virgin patient was admitted to our clinic with abdominal pain and nausea. The sonographic evaluation showed a left adnexal mass 89 × 80 mm
BACKGROUND
To assess the clinical value of peritoneal washing cytology (PWC) in women with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations and women from a family with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (HBOC) undergoing risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) in detecting primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) or occult
Female genital schistosomiasis is not uncommon in endemic areas for schistosomiasis, but there are few reports in the Brazilian medical literature. Here, we describe the case of a 31-year-old woman with lower abdominal pain who was diagnosed as presenting a fallopian tube tumor caused by Manson's
Although detecting ovarian cancer at early stage is a highly meaningful clinical goal, no studies have evaluated early stage disease presentation in a large community-based population and how it differs from that of late stage disease.Electronic medical Primary fallopian tube carcinoma is an extremely uncommon neoplasm of the female genital tract. Primary Fallopian Tube Carcinoma (PFTC) has a clinical and a histological resemblance to Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC). We are reporting a case of PFTC in a 55 year old tubectomized, postmenopausal
Olaparib, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, has previously shown efficacy in a phase 2 study when given in capsule formulation to all-comer patients with platinum-sensitive, relapsed high-grade serous ovarian cancer. We aimed to confirm these findings in patients with a BRCA1 or BRCA2
