Prolapse of an ovarian tumor during labor.

Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand

Patan Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal.

Published: May 1988

A case of prolapsed tumor after home delivery is reported. At first a puerperal inversion of the uterus was suspected. At operation a dermoid ovarian tumor was found to be prolapsed through the vaginal fornix.

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.

Development of a novel molecular probe for visualizing mesothelin on the tumor via positron emission tomography.

Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging

January 2025

Institute of Radiation Medicine, Fudan University, Xietu Road 2094, Shanghai, 200032, China.

Objectives: Mesothelin (MSLN) is an antigen that is overexpressed in various cancers, and its interaction with tumor-associated cancer antigen 125 plays a multifaceted role in tumor metastasis. The serum MSLN expression level can be detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; however, non-invasive visualization of its expression at the tumor site is currently lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a molecular probe for imaging MSLN expression through positron emission tomography (PET).

The role of Anti-Müllerian hormone in women health.

Ginekol Pol

January 2025

Department of Clinical Dietetics, Faculty of Health Sciences, Medical University of Warsaw, Poland, Poland.

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.

Comprehensive evaluation of genomic and functional assays for homologous recombination deficiency with high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer: Platinum sensitivity and prognosis.

Int J Gynecol Cancer

January 2025

Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, Department of Gynecologic Oncology, Shanghai, China; Fudan University, Shanghai Medical College, Department of Oncology, Shanghai, China. Electronic address:

Objective: Homologous recombination deficiency assays, guiding treatment of poly (adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase inhibitors, are increasingly applied in clinics. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive performance of homologous recombination deficiency status at genomic and functional perspective on the efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy in ovarian cancer.

Methods: Between 2016 and 2019, 134 patients with high-grade ovarian cancer were retrospectively analyzed.

Prognostic significance and accuracy of oncologists' estimates of survival time in recurrent ovarian cancer.

Int J Gynecol Cancer

January 2025

The NHMRC Clinical Trials Centre, The University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW, Australia; Macarthur Cancer Therapy Centre, Sydney, NSW, Australia; Western Sydney University, Department of Medicine, Sydney, NSW, Australia. Electronic address:

Objective: We evaluated the accuracy of oncologists' estimates of expected survival time in recurrent ovarian cancer.

Methods: Oncologists estimated expected survival time at baseline for each patient, who were then followed up for survival time. We hypothesized that oncologists' estimates of expected survival time would be independently significant predictors of survival, unbiased (approximately equal proportions [50%] living longer versus shorter than their expected survival time), or imprecise (<30% within 0.
