Nonvisualized Ovaries on Ultrasound: Correlation With Surgical Pathology.

The risk of malignancy in nonvisualized ovaries on pelvic ultrasound is presumed to be close to zero per imaging correlation; the goal of this manuscript is to define the risk of malignancy in nonvisualized ovaries on pelvic ultrasound as defined by surgical pathology. Records for patients with pelvic ultrasound and surgical pathology containing the word "ovary" or "ovaries" performed at our institution between 10/1/2015 and 9/30/2021 were reviewed. Data for ovarian visualization were extracted from the radiology report and correlated with surgical pathology results within each ovary.

fusion-associated uterine sarcoma and response to Imatinib: A case report.

Uterine sarcomas are rare neoplasms of the uterus, some of which are associated with distinctive gene fusions. fusion uterine sarcoma is a recently described entity that shares the same genetic alteration as dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. These uterine sarcomas have a nonspecific spindle cell sarcoma appearance and are CD34 positive by immunohistochemistry.

Metastatic Cholangiocarcinoma to the Uterus Morphologically Imitating Primary Intestinal-type Endometrioid Adenocarcinoma.

Cholangiocarcinoma is an uncommon and aggressive malignancy of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. We present a case of a 37-year-old woman with cholangiocarcinoma metastatic to the endometrium that mimicked a primary endometrial adenocarcinoma at resection. The patient is status-post orthotopic liver transplant for cholangiocarcinoma.

Phosphomannose Isomerase High Expression Associated with Better Prognosis in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.

Introduction: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. The need for increased patient survival has not been met for PDAC. The addition of mannose to conventional chemotherapy leads to accumulation of mannose metabolite in cancer cells and increases subsequent cell death.
