A 52-year-old woman previously treated for a stage IIIc high-grade ovarian serous carcinoma presented right upper quadrant abdominal pain, 3 years after extended surgery and chemotherapy. Abdominal CT, MRI, and 18F-FDG PET/CT showed a right hepatic mass, consistent for lone recurrence nearby the hepatic lateral fissure. Preoperative and histologic examination identified a peritoneal lateral fissure lesion. The patient underwent atypic segment 5 segmentectomy. She has been disease-free for 3 years now. Advanced ovarian cancer can be responsible for perihepatic sulcus lesions, such as this right fissure lesion. They should not be mistaken for inoperable parenchyma metastases.

Purpose: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a transcription factor that is essential for the survival and immune sequestration of cancer cells. We conducted a phase 1 study of TTI‑101, a first-in-class, selective small-molecule inhibitor of STAT3, in patients with advanced metastatic cancer.
Patients And Methods: Patients were treated with TTI-101 orally twice daily in 28-day cycles at 4 dose levels (DLs): 3.

Chronic fluoride (F) exposure is linked to gonadotoxicity in females, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated fluoride-induced reprotoxicity using advanced genomic profiling. RNA-seq analysis identified significant activation of autophagy, apoptosis, and IL-17 signaling pathways in fluoride-exposed female mice.

Objective: Our study was aimed to construct a predictive model to advance ovarian cancer diagnosis by machine learning.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with pelvic/adnexal/ovarian mass was performed. Potential features related to ovarian cancer were obtained as many as possible.

Ewing sarcoma family tumors (ESFT) pose diagnostic challenges, which largely depend on the primary site of involvement and tumor stage. Despite advancements in treatment, metastatic ESFTs remain associated with poor outcomes. This case describes a 21-year-old woman who, in July 2022, presented with a left breast mass identified through ultrasound and CT scan, along with abdominal distention.

Study Objective: We present the results of the first feasibility and safety study of a novel multi-modality falloposcope, in 19 volunteers. The falloposcope incorporated multispectral fluorescence imaging (MFI) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) for evaluation of the fallopian tubes (FT).
Methods: Nineteen females undergoing elective salpingectomy were recruited in this IRB-approved study.
