The histopathological diagnosis and treatment of borderline epithelial tumors of the ovary (BTO) still pose problems to both pathologists and gynecologists. BTO is a disease of younger, fertile females and generally has an excellent prognosis. A minority of patients, however, succumb to this disease. A review of the literature is given addressing aspects of epidemiology, histology, treatment and prognosis, resulting in a proposal for the management of serous and mucinous borderline tumors of the ovary.

Low-dose aspirin for the prevention of preeclampsia in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a retrospective cohort study.
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth
January 2025
The Department of Obstetrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University, 419 Fangxie Road, Huangpu Area, Shanghai, 200011, China.
Background: The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of low-dose aspirin (LDA) in preventing preeclampsia among pregnant women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), given the increased susceptibility of this population to preeclampsia development.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on pregnant women with PCOS who delivered between January 1, 2018 and February 10, 2024 at our institution. Clinical characteristics and obstetric data were extracted from medical records.
Van Wyk-Grumbach Syndrome with bilateral inguinal hernia: A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep
January 2025
Institute of Oncology, Sri Ramakrishna Hospital, Coimbatore, India.
Introduction: Van Wyk-Grumbach Syndrome (VWGS) is a rare pediatric endocrinological disorder characterized by hypothyroidism, delayed bone age, enlarged multicystic ovaries, and precocious puberty. It results from prolonged hypothyroidism, affecting the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. This report describes a 7-year-old girl presenting with vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain, leading to a diagnosis of VWGS with bilateral inguinal hernia and requiring surgical intervention.

Department of Radiology, Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, Shanghai, China.
Objective: To assess the utility of clinical and MRI features in distinguishing ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) from adnexal masses with ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system (O-RADS) MRI scores of 4-5.
Methods: This retrospective study included 850 patients with indeterminate adnexal masses on ultrasound. Two radiologists evaluated all preoperative MRIs using the O-RADS MRI risk stratification system.
Establishment of a human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell line by constitutive expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 4, cyclin D1 and telomerase reverse transcriptase.

Only a few human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell lines are currently available, partly due to the difficulty of establishing cell lines from low-grade cancers. Here, using a cell immortalization strategy consisting of i) inactivation of the p16-pRb pathway by constitutive expression of mutant cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (R24C) (CDK4) and cyclin D1, and ii) acquisition of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) activity, we established a human ovarian endometrioid carcinoma cell line from a 46-year-old Japanese woman. That line, designated JFE-21, has proliferated continuously for over 6 months with a doubling time of ~ 55 h.

Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), also known as Müller duct inhibitory factor and primarily known for its role in sexual differentiation. In female fetuses, AMH production by granulosa cells begins around the 36th week of gestation and continues in women until menopause. It is becoming more significant in the endocrine and gynecological diagnosis of adult women.
