Background: Ovarian malignancy is one of the most common cancer in women and diagnosed at later stage majority. The limiting factor for early diagnosis lack standardized terms procedures gynaecological sonography. Recently, IOTA simple rules have been externally validated to an increased sensitivity specificity diagnosing ovarian malignancy. Methods: This a prospective study Department obstetri...

Ovarian cysts are common in postmenopausal women, although the prevalence is lower than in premenopausal women.Of 20 000 healthy postmenopausal women screened in the Prostate,Lung,Colon and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial, 21.2% had abnormal ovarian morphology, either simple or complex. The greater use of ultrasound and other radiological investigations means that an increasing proportion of the...

It is crucial to rule out any cancer in an ovarian mass. Following initial diagnosis, it the most essential issue and has a significant impact on how patient will be managed. Therefore, accurate way distinguish between benign malignant mass would allow for best clinical evaluation could perhaps lessen number of unneeded laparotomies performed lesions disease.

BACKGROUND Ovarian torsion (OT) occurs primarily in women of child-bearing age, but is rare in the pediatric population. The clinical presentation often consists of nonspecific abdominal complaints making the diagnosis difficult. Radiologic and sonographic evidence can be misleading. Although the delay in diagnosis from symptom onset is common, rapid diagnosis of ovarian torsion is imperative t...

BACKGROUND Hepatic embryonal sarcoma (HES) is a rare but aggressive primary tumor of the liver occurring most frequently in childhood. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of a 52 year old woman having previously undergone treatment for ovarian serous papillary carcinoma who subsequently presented with a large solitary mass in the liver. Initially this was presumed to be metastasis from the ova...

The mesothelial cysts of the round ligament uterus are rare. They misdiagnosed as ovarian/ para ovarian cysts, inguinal hernias, abscess. We report a case 48-years-old female with gradual painless distension abdomen. Up on explorative laparotomy cyst was seen arising from right ligament. Excision cystic mass done and pathologically confirmed cyst. Establishing accurate per operative diagnosis b...

To the editor: The recent publication on ‘HE4, CA-125, and cystic ovarian mass’ is very interesting [1]. Partheen et al. [1] concluded that HE4 did not outperform CA-125. Indeed, the use of two biomarkers might be expected for increased screening ability; however, the problem of the cost should be kept in mind. Incremental analysis on additional cost should be done. Based on the present report,...

A new type of efficient and accurate proteomic ovarian cancer diagnosis systems is proposed. The system is developed using the combinatorics and optimization-based methodology of logical analysis of data (LAD) to the Ovarian Dataset 8-7-02 (http://clinicalproteomics.steem.com), which updates the one used by Petricoin et al. in The Lancet 2002, 359, 572-577. This mass spectroscopy-generated data...

Introduction. Reports of epithelial ovarian carcinomas metastatic to the pancreas are very rare. We herein present a metastasis of high grade papillary serous ovarian cancer to mid portion of pancreas. Case. A 42-year-old patient was admitted with a non-specified malignant cystic lesion in midportion of pancreas. She had a history of surgical treatment for papillary serous ovarian adenocarcinom...

Ovarian cancer is highly prevalent among European women, and is the leading cause of gynaecological cancer death. Current histopathological diagnoses of tumour severity are based on interpretation of, for example, immunohistochemical staining. Desorption electrospray mass spectrometry imaging (DESI-MSI) generates spatially resolved metabolic profiles of tissues and supports an objective investi...
