Background Endometrial receptivity is one of parameters which determine the reproductive outcome in in vitro fertilization programs. A good blood supply towards the endometrium is usually considered to be an essential requirement for implantation. Blood vessels of the endometrium can be detected by transvaginal color and pulse Doppler sonography. Color Doppler assessment permits better visualiz...

endometrial cancer generally carries a good prognosis. endometrial carcinoma more frequently metastasizes to the pelvic and para-aortic nodes. visceral metastases usually occur in the vagina and ovaries. distant metastases involve lungs and occur as a terminal event. this case report describes vulvalar metastasis of endometrial cancer to the clitoris. metastatic tumors of the vulva are rare. mo...

Background: Endometrial hyperplasia is important clinically, because it can lead to abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) which itself can precede to endometrial cancer. Endometrial carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the female genital tract, occurring about 75-85% in younger, perimenopousal women as hyperplasic endometrial. The treatment is hysterectomy or hormone therapy with progesterone. ...

OBJECTIVE We investigated the features of endometrial hyperplasia with concurrent endometrial cancer that had been diagnosed by endometrial sampling. Further, we attempted to identify an accurate differential diagnostic method. METHODS We retrospectively studied 125 patients who underwent a diagnostic endometrial biopsy or were diagnosed after the surgical treatment of other gynecological les...

BACKGROUND Endometrial cancers are the most common gynecologic cancers. Endometrial sampling is a preferred procedure for diagnosis of the endometrial pathology. It is performed routinely in many clinics prior to surgery in order to exclude an endometrial malignancy. We aimed to investigate the accuracy of endometrial sampling in the diagnosis of endometrial pathologies and which findings need ...

OBJECTIVES To explore the roles of Bcl-xl and Bcl-xs in the development and progression of endometrial carcinoma, and to analyze the correlation between Bcl-xl and Bcl-xs. METHODS RT-PCR and Western-blot assay were applied to detect the expressions of Bcl-xl and Bcl-xs in endometrial tissues of various histomorphologic types. RESULTS The Bcl-xl expression levels of simple and atypical hyper...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to evaluate whether it was possible to abstain from performing an endometrial biopsy when endometrial thickness according to transvaginal ultrasonography was /=50 years who were re...

background dysfunctional uterine bleeding (dub) is the most common gynecologic disorder in women of reproductive age. medical treatments are often ineffective. endometrial ablation is an alternative to hysterectomy for these women. objective to evaluate the response to treatment rate of the cavaterm tm plus technique for management of menorrhagia secondary to dysfunctional uterine bleeding (dub...

background and objectives: endometrial hyperplasia (eh) is an abnormal overgrowth of endometrium that may lead to endometrial cancer, especially when accompanied by atypia. the treatment of eh is challenging, and previous studies report conflicting results. metformin (dimethyl biguanide) is an anti-diabetic and insulin sensitizer agent, which is supposed to have antiproliferative and anticancer...

BACKGROUND The incidence and death rates of endometrial cancer are alarmingly increasing. The diagnosis and treatment of endometrial cancer is crucial to decreasing mortality. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) belongs to the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette transporter family and plays an essential role in anion regulation and tissue homeostasis of various ...
