Colorectal cancer (CRC) is more prevalent in south-central Asian countries, particularly the Afghan population. Screening for CRC in the Afghan population has always been challenging, primarily due to the tribal and social cultures, lack of facilities, and lack of education.

Carcinosarcoma of the Uterus: A Study From the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Result (SEER) Database.

Background: Uterine cancer (UC) is one of the leading gynecologic neoplastic disorders in the United States (US), of which over 80% are endometrioid adenocarcinomas (EA). In contrast to EA, carcinosarcoma (CS) of the uterus is a sporadic and highly malignant tumor, phylogenetically containing both epithelial and mesenchymal histologic elements. This study sought to analyze demographic, pathological retrospectively, and survival characteristics of a large cohort of CS patients compared to EA patients to identify prognostic factors and treatment approaches that may improve the current clinical management of CS patients.
