Uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex cord tumors are rare neoplasms with varied histological and immunophenotypic profile, uncertain histiogenesis and biological behavior. A critical evaluation of histological features is essential for diagnosis and management of these cases.

Uterine mesenchymal tumors are a diverse group of tumors that can display a broad range of morphologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular profiles and are associated with varied clinical behaviors. In recent years, they have increasingly been classified by their underlying molecular alterations, leading to a more precise separation of diagnostic entities. As their diagnostic criteria have been refined, so too have the features that can be used to predict clinical outcomes.

A wide range of etiologies, both ischemic and nonischemic, can produce an electrocardiographic pattern of ST-segment elevation (STE), including Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and electrolyte imbalances. Instances of hypocalcemia-induced TTS and STE are exceedingly rare in medical literature. This paper presents the case of a 75-year-old woman with advanced ovarian cancer and no prior heart issues, who exhibited diffuse STE on electrocardiogram, resembling acute coronary syndrome.

Study Objective: The aim of this paper is to review our understanding of the vaginal microbiome (VM), the internal and external factors that influence its composition, and how it relates to adult and adolescent reproductive health.
Methods: A literature review was conducted in March 2024 using Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar.
Results: The majority of studies focused on the VM in healthy adult women and demonstrated that the VM changes across the menstrual cycle, with the greatest species diversity during menses.

To investigate the relationship between the expression patterns of SOX2 and FOXG1 and the differentiation/development level of neural components in immature teratoma and to determine the clinical significance and potential application of this correlation in a clinical setting. We conducted a comprehensive whole transcriptome sequencing analysis to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) across various subtypes of ovarian germ cell tumors. Additionally, immunohistochemical staining of paraffin-embedded tissue sections was employed to assess the nuclear staining pattern of SOX2 and FOXG1 proteins within the tumor tissues.
