Vaginal Myomectomy and Total Vaginal Hysterectomy on Large Prolapsed Cervical Myoma: A Case Report.

Cervical myomas are benign tumors originating from cervical muscle tissue with a very rare incidence of only about 8% of all myomas. The surgical approach depends on the position of cervical myoma. This case report discusses a 44-year-old woman who complained of a lump discharge from her birth canal 6 months ago, and currently discharging from her vagina.

Analysis of Curcumin as a Radiosensitizer in Cancer Therapy with Serum Survivin Examination: Randomised Control Trial.

Objective: One of the important treatments for cervical cancer is radiation therapy. This study sought to determine the role of curcumin as a radio-sensitizing agent for use with radiation therapy for cervical cancer. To accomplish this, we assessed the levels of survivin, which is an anti-apoptotic protein that plays a role in cell division and apoptosis inhibition.

Modification of cutoff values for HE4, CA125, the Risk of Malignancy Index, and the Risk of Malignancy Algorithm for ovarian cancer detection in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Background: CA125 and HE4 are used in calculating Risk of Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA); and Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI). However, studies showed that normal levels of CA125, and HE4 differ among ethnicities such as between Asians and Caucasians, thus affecting the accuracy of the RMI score and ROMA in predicting ovarian malignancy. This study aimed to determine whether new or modified cutoff values for Ca- 125, HE4, the RMI score, and ROMA resulted in a better prediction of malignancy compared with the previous or standard ones.
