A case of non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the upper gingiva with minimal residual disease detected in cryopreserved ovarian tissue: A case report.

Recently, more than 200 live births following ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) and transplantation in cancer survivors have been reported worldwide. However, cancer survivors with minimal residual disease (MRD) in cryopreserved ovarian tissue are at the risk of relapse through the graft. Here, we report a rare case of a 19-year-old female patient with non-Hodgkin lymphoma who had MRD in the ovary harvested for OTC.

NK cells that differ in expression of NKp46 might play different roles in endometrium.

NKp46 is a natural cytotoxicity receptor expressed by NK cells and its expression is decreased in reproductive failure patients. NKp46 can be subdivided into NKp46 and NKp46 according to different fluorescence staining intensities. We investigated the role of the NKp46 receptor in determining the reproductive outcomes.

The chronological change in transvaginal ultrasound images of a hemorrhagic ovarian cyst observed during infertility treatment: A case report and literature review.

Insights gained from chronological ultrasonogram images in the current case report will provide useful information for diagnosing and conservatively treating HOC. This could help avoid unnecessary laparotomy.

Pelvic endometriosis and natural killer cell immunity.

Endometriosis is a chronic disease that commonly affects women in their reproductive age. It has been reported that the infertility due to endometriosis is largely caused by pelvic adhesion, oocyte damage, and so on. There are several causes of endometriosis including bacterial infections, immunological abnormalities, epigenetics, and aberrant DNA methylation.

Association between spontaneous ovulation and serum anti-Müllerian hormone levels in a premature ovarian insufficiency patient after a multimodal treatment for breast cancer.

The high toxicity of chemotherapy can damage a patient's gonadal function, leading to premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). Here, we report the case of a patient suffering from POI after chemotherapy for breast cancer, who 3 years later ovulated spontaneously and became pregnant. The patient, a 31-year-old infertile women, nulligravida, was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Fertility preservation and pregnancy outcomes in adolescent and young adult male patients with cancer.

Purpose: Sperm cryopreservation is the gold standard for maintaining fertility in male survivors of cancer. In order to help increase the future success of fertility preservation in these patients, the present state of sperm cryopreservation was examined at the current institution and its challenges were discussed.

Methods: Between January, 2004 and February, 2017, 31 male patients with cancer were introduced to the center for fertility preservation.

A case of primary metastatic glassy cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix that responded to combined docetaxel and carboplatin.

•Glassy cell carcinoma (GCC) of the cervix is rare and aggressive.•A few case reports have described a response to intravenous chemotherapy for this malignancy.•This is the first report of a GCC case that responded to a combination of docetaxel and carboplatin.

Long-term remission after multiple bone metastases following cervical cancer: A case report.

•Multiple bone metastases following cervical cancer was completed resolved.•Metastatic lesions were present within a previously irradiated zone of primary external radiation.•Concurrent chemotherapy and bisphosphonate administration is promising.
