Outstanding research in the last few decades led to newer insights into the management of gynecological cancers. In the preventive arena, the efficacy and safety of HPV vaccination are well accepted and is now in addition to bi- and quadrivalent vaccines; there is a nonavalent vaccine against nine oncogenic HPV strains. Recent studies also looked into the dosaging schedules and age of vaccination against HPV to improve the vaccine efficacy and coverage. HPV testing is now approved as a primary screening test for cervical cancer in women aged more than 30 years with better sensitivity than the traditional cytology. Opportunistic salpingectomy for ovarian cancer prevention and neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancers are accepted practices. The role of personalized medicine in ovarian cancer and comprehensive genomic analysis of endometrial cancers are also covered in this review.

A rare intersection: squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil and the anti-TIF1 syndrome masquerade.

Background: Dermatomyositis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting muscles and skin, often associated with an increased risk of cancer. Specific autoantibodies, including anti-TIF1 (Transcription Intermediary Factor 1), have been linked to this risk. We present a case of dermatomyositis in a male patient positive for anti-TIF1 antibodies, subsequently diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil, a novel association not previously documented.

Purpose: Hereditary breast and ovarian cancers (HBOC) carry a high risk of breast cancer, and detailed screening with contrast-enhanced breast MRI (breast MRI surveillance) is recommended. With the increase in the number of individuals diagnosed with HBOC, the demand for breast MRI surveillance is also rising. However, the current system is inadequate, with factors such as lack of knowledge and indifference among healthcare professionals, and insufficient understanding of breast MRI surveillance being cited.

Background: The pathogenesis of ovarian cancer (OvCa) involves a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors. With the in-depth exploration of tumor ecosystem, exosomes can mediate the immunological status of tumor microenvironment (TME). Therefore, we aimed to recognize the tumor-derived exosomes (TEXs) which can distinguish the immune-hot and cold tumors and reflect the immunotherapeutic responses.

Background: Ovarian cancer is among the most lethal gynecologic malignancy that threatens women's lives. Pathological diagnosis is a key tool for early detection and diagnosis of ovarian cancer, guiding treatment strategies. The evaluation of various ovarian cancer-related cells, based on morphological and immunohistochemical pathology images, is deemed an important step.
