Sensitivity of frozen section analysis in patients with ovarian adult granulosa cell tumor, a multi-center study.

Introduction: We aimed to demonstrate the sensitivity of frozen section for patients with adult granulosa cell tumor (AGCT) and analyze the clinico-pathological factors that may be associated with sensitivity.

Material Methods: This is a multicenter study including data of 10 Gynecological Oncology Departments. Frozen-section results of patients who had ovarian AGCT at the final pathology report were retrospectively analyzed.

Defining the relationship between ovarian adult granulosa cell tumors and synchronous endometrial pathology: Does ovarian tumor size correlate with endometrial cancer?

Objective: The main feature of adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCT) is their capacity to secrete hormones, with nearly all of them capable of synthesizing oestradiol. The primary goal of this study is to identify synchronized endometrial pathologies, particularly endometrial cancer, in AGCT patients who had undergone a hysterectomy.

Materials And Methods: The study cohort comprised retrospectively of 316 AGCT patients from 10 tertiary gynecological oncology centers.

Prognostic factors of adult granulosa cell tumors of the ovary: a Turkish retrospective multicenter study.

Objective: To define the clinical, histopathological features and the prognostic factors affecting survival in patients with adult granulosa cell tumors of the ovary (AGCT).

Methods: A 322 patients whose final pathologic outcome was AGCT treated at nine tertiary oncology centers between 1988 and 2021 participated in the study.

Results: The mean age of the patients was 51.

Clinicopathological and prognostic significance of PD-L1 expression in colon adenocarcinoma tumor budding.

Objective: In this study, we investigated the relationship between programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) expression in colon adenocarcinoma tumor budding.

Methods: This study included 122 patients with colon adenocarcinomas. The largest sample of formaldehyde-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor tissues was selected for analysis.

Description of New Miridae and Tingidae Species (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) and New Records from Southern Turkey.

In this study, Fulvius anatolicus Çerçi Gorczyca sp. n., Orthotylus (Pinocapsus) kmenti Çerçi Koçak sp.

Is the Concentration of Cadmium, Lead, Mercury, and Selenium Related to Preterm Birth?

Environmental pollution and exposure of people to heavy metals cause many bad obstetric outcomes. Our aim is to demonstrate the role of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), and selenium (Se) in preterm labor etiology with a case-control study. In this study, between November 2017 and April 2018, preterm delivery mothers and term delivery mothers were compared in Çorum, Turkey.

Pulmonary recurrence in patients with endometrial cancer.

Background: In this article, we aimed to define the clinical, pathological, and surgical factors predicting pulmonary recurrence (PR) and determining survival after PR in patients with endometrial cancer.

Methods: Thirty-six (2.7%) patients were analyzed who suffered pulmonary failure in the first recurrence out of 1345 patients who had at least extrafascial hysterectomy plus bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for endometrial cancer between January 1993 and May 2013.

Salvage Cytoreductive Surgery for Recurrent Endometrial Cancer.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of salvage cytoreductive surgery (SCS) on overall survival (OS) among patients with recurrent endometrial cancer and if there is any predictor for residual tumor status.

Methods: Between January 1993 and May 2013, data of 34 patients who had SCS for recurrent endometrial cancer were retrospectively analyzed. Overall survival was determined from SCS to last follow-up.

Effect of body mass index on latency periods after history-indicated cervical cerclage.

Background: The impact of maternal body mass index (BMI) on cervical cerclage outcomes is not clear in the literature.

Aim: We sought to investigate the impact of BMI on history-indicated cervical cerclage outcomes in our unit.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 196 history-indicated cervical cerclage procedures.

The effect of calmodulin antagonists on experimental scoliosis: a pinealectomized chicken model.

Study Design: Randomized controlled.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of Tamoxifen (TMX) and trifluoperozine (TFP) on pinealectomized chicken scoliosis.

Summary Of Background Data: Pinealectomized chicken develops scoliosis probably due to the lack of melatonin.

Evaluation of shoulder balance in the normal adolescent population and its correlation with radiological parameters.

A descriptive clinical study in healthy adolescents was done to evaluate the clinical shoulder balance and analyze the correlation between clinical and radiological parameters which are currently used to evaluate shoulder balance. In addition to trunk shift and rib hump, shoulder balance is one of the criteria that are used to evaluate the outcomes in spinal deformity surgery. Several methods have been proposed to evaluate the shoulder balance in scoliotic patients; however, there is no uniformity to these methods in the current literature.
