Article Synopsis
- The study aims to evaluate the prognostic impact of isolated tumor cells in sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) of low-risk endometrial cancer patients who did not receive additional therapy.
- A total of 494 patients were analyzed, finding that recurrence rates were higher in those with SLN-isolated tumor cells, with significant differences in recurrence-free survival between this group and node-negative patients.
- Although isolated tumor cells were associated with poorer recurrence-free outcomes, no significant differences in overall survival between the two groups were observed.
Herein we present the case of a 33-year nulliparous woman at 21 weeks of gestation with mitral valve vegetation resulting from infective endocarditis. Due to the mother's critical condition caused by consecutive thromboembolic events, surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass was indicated. During surgery the fetus was monitored by a specialized obstetrician who repetitively measured the Doppler indices of the umbilical artery, Ductus venosus and uterine artery.

- A study analyzed the impact of molecular classification on the management of endometrial cancer patients by examining data from 1,357 cases diagnosed in 2016 across Canada, revealing significant molecular subtype diversity.
- Only a small percentage of patients underwent necessary immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing for MMR and p53 proteins, leading to missed opportunities for early diagnosis and treatment options.
- The findings highlight the need for standardized biomarker reporting and routine integration of molecular subtyping in pathology practice to improve patient outcomes.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the number of Latino physicians in residency training and Latino resident physician trends in the nation's 10 largest medical specialties in the United States and in the 4 states with the largest Latino populations: California, Florida, New York, and Texas.
Method: The authors used data from the United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey to determine Latino populations and a special report from the Association of American Medical Colleges to determine rates of Latino resident physicians in the United States and in California, Florida, New York, and Texas from 2001 to 2017. Rates of Latino residents in the nation's 10 specialties with the largest number of residents were also determined.
Objective: Studies on low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSC) are limited by a low number of cases. The aim of this study was to define the prognostic significance of age, stage, and CA-125 levels on survival in a multi-institutional cohort of women with pathologically confirmed LGSC.
Methods: Women with LGSC were identified from the collaborative Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium (OCAC).
