Background: The incidence of ovarian masses has increased over the past two decades and is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths globally. Although histopathology remains the gold standard, in recent times, imageguided aspiration is being increasingly used as a rapid, inexpensive and efficient method for the pre-operative diagnosis of ovarian masses. The present study was performed...

INTRODUCTION Intraoperative fluorescence imaging of the folate-receptor alpha (FRα) could support completeness of resection in cancer surgery. Feasibility of EC17, a FRα-targeting agent that fluoresces at 500nm, was demonstrated in a limited series of ovarian cancer patients. Our objective was to evaluate EC17 in a larger group of ovarian cancer patients. In addition, we assessed the feasibilit...

Ovarian torsion is one of the gynecological emergencies that affect ovarian tissue integrity and fertility. In this study, we aim to investigate effects Momordica charantia (MC) on injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion. Twenty-four rats were assigned three groups: control group, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) group IR + MC group. 600 mg/kg extract given via orogastric route. 3-hour ischemia reperf...

We report 2 cases of synchronous ovarian and endometrial tumour presented to us with irregular bleeding per vagina. Case 1: 51 year old, nulliparous lady came with irregular vaginal bleeding with mass per abdomen. Ultrasonogram of pelvis showed bulky heterogeneous uterus with solid and cystic lesions in both adnexa.CA125 was 293 IU/ml. Patient underwent staging laparotomy with radical hysterect...

Objective: The majority of childhood ovarian masses are benign. However, malignant tumors encountered in adulthood may also be seen childhood. There is still no tumor management protocol for children. We shared our experiences with mass cases operated clinic. Material and Methods: Patients aged 0-18 years had surgery hospital between 2010 2020 due to were included the study. ages patients, maxi...

Introduction: Ovarian tumor considered one of the most common tumors affected females, it represent 6th overall (4%), and 2nd usual in females international (23%). Worldwide each year, ≥225,000 women were diagnosed, 140,000 die from disease. The aim study is to determine various histopathological morphological variants ovarian tumors, their size site, age distribution, association with diagnosi...

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynaecological malignancy in developed countries. Synchronous endometrioid endometrial and ovarian cancer in patients appears with different clinical characteristics compared to patients with isolated endometrial cancer. A 34-year-old woman with lower abdominal pain of 1 year duration presented at the emergency department. On gynaecological exam...

Ovarian squamous cell carcinoma is a rare malignancy and the occurrence is attributable to malignant transformation of an existing ovarian dermoid cyst. The de novo occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma of the ovary, in the absence of an antecedent ovarian dermoid, is extremely rare. The case of a 31 year old Asian woman, evaluated for abdominal distension and discomfort is presented. Abdominal...

Mitotically active cellular fibroma (MACF) of the ovary is a relatively newly recognized histological disease entity which explains its scarce reporting in literature and unknown prognosis [1]. In this tumor type, high mitotic activity noticed without severe atypia. These tumors are categorized as benign ovarian with late recurrence, if any. However, we herein report an unusual case mitotically...
