We report a rare case of small-cell carcinoma of the uterine corpus. To our knowledge, this is the first radiological report. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrates a hypodense lesion within the endometrial cavity with nonhomogeneous contrast enhancement.

Small cell neuroendocrine cervical carcinoma is a highly aggressive tumor characterized by early metastasis, a high recurrence rate, and poor prognosis. This study represents the first instance of single-cell sequencing conducted on small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix worldwide. Analysis of gene expression regulatory networks revealed that the transcription factor TFF3 drived up-regulation of ELF3.

This study investigated the risk factors for endometrial hyperplasia (EH) and endometrial carcinoma (EC) in premenopausal women. The goal was to establish a nomogram model to predict the risk of EH/EC and quantitative standards in clinical practice, which improved the clinical prognosis of EH/EC patients. Data were collected from premenopausal women with suspected EH/EC who underwent hysteroscopic endometrial biopsy.

Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is a significant cause of cancer-related mortality among women worldwide. Prior research has demonstrated an association between cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2 A (CDKN2A) and various tumors. As a member of the INK4 family, CDKN2A is involved in cell cycle regulation by controlling CDKs.

The combination therapy of lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (LP) is increasingly recognized as an important second-line regimen for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (EC). However, the safety and efficacy of conversion surgery with low anterior rectal resection for unresectable EC following LP therapy is unknown. A 37-year-old woman was referred with unresectable EC with pleural fluid, peritoneal dissemination, and ascites.

Upregulation of Cyclin E1 and subsequent activation of CDK2 accelerates cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase and is a common oncogenic driver in gynecological malignancies. WEE1 kinase counteracts the effects of Cyclin E1/CDK2 activation by regulating multiple cell cycle checkpoints. Here we characterized the relationship between Cyclin E1/CDK2 activation and sensitivity to the selective WEE1 inhibitor azenosertib.
