Objective: As an indolent malignant tumor, the long-term management of low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) patients required awareness, especially the management of recurrences. Unfortunately, few studies focused on the treatment of recurrent LGESS. Our study aimed to investigate the prognostic factors and the value of recurrent surgery on recurrent LGESS.

This study aimed to explore the prognostic factors and the role of primary debulking in IVB ovarian cancer patients with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis.

Methods: Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was tested for all participants by using SNPstats (online software: http://bioinfo.iconcologia.
Background: Cervical cancer is one of the most common gynecological cancers threatening women's health worldwide. Double-stranded RNA-binding proteins (dsRBPs) regulate innate immunity and are therefore believed to be involved in virus-related malignancies, however, their role in cervical cancer is not well known.
Methods: We performed RNA-seq of tumor samples from cervical cancer patients in local cohort and also assessed the RNA-seq and clinical data derived from public datasets.
Backgrounds: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most commonly diagnosed gynecologic malignancy in China. However, the genetic profile of Chinese EC patients has not been well established yet.
Methods: In current study, 158 Chinese EC patients were subjected to next-generation sequencing assay (74 took testing of EC-related 20-genes panel, and 84 took the expanded panel).
Objective: To compare sugrical and survival outcomes between laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) and radical abdominal hysterectomy (RAH).
Methods: All the patients with IB1-IIA2 cervical cancer who performed LRH or RAH in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center between 1/2016 and 12/2017 were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: There were no significant differences between LRH and RAH groups except deep stromal invasion (35.
Ovarian cancer is the malignant tumor of the female reproductive system with the highest fatality rate. Tolerance to chemotherapeutic drugs such as paclitaxel (PTX) occurring in the very early stage is one of the important factors of the poor prognosis of ovarian cancer. Herein, we aim to study the dysregulation of a particular circular RNA (circRNA), circCELSR1 (hsa_circ_0063809), and its role in the progression and PTX resistance of ovarian cancer.

The present study aimed to identify clinicopathological factors associated with upstaging in patients preoperatively diagnosed with DCIS by CNB.
Methods: The present study enrolled 604 patients (cN0M0) with a preoperative diagnosis of pure DCIS by CNB, who underwent axillary staging between August 2006 and December 2015, at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (Shanghai, China).
The aim of this study was to investigate the trends of axillary lymph node evaluation in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) patients treated with breast-conserving therapy (BCT) and to identify the clinicopathological predictors of axillary evaluation. DCIS patients treated with BCT in 2006-2015 at our institute were retrospectively included in the analysis. Patients were categorized into three groups: sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), and non-evaluation.

Materials And Methods: Fifteen breast anthropomorphic parameters of 605 Chinese female patients were collected prospectively. Breast ptosis status was scaled by two methods and breast volume was calculated according to a modified formula of BREAST-V.
The aim of the study was to review the surgical trends in breast cancer treatment in China over the past 15 years and to explore the possible factors related to the choice of surgical modality.The medical records of 18,502 patients with unilateral early stage breast cancer who underwent surgery from January 1999 to December 2013 at our institute were retrospectively reviewed. The utilization of different surgical modalities and the associated clinicopathological factors were analyzed.

Methods: This is a retrospective review of all patients with early-stage BBC who underwent surgical treatment at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center between June 2007 and June 2014.
Results: A total of 15,337 patients with primary breast cancer were identified.
