Isolated fallopian tube torsion is an extremely rare occurrence in a young female. The lady concerned presented with acute abdominal pain and the ovaries were normal on the scan with dilated fallopian tubes. On laparoscopy, it was revealed that she was suffering from fallopian tube torsion and laparoscopic salpingectomy was performed. The patient recovered well postoperatively.

Variant Pseudocystic Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor With Heterologous Mullerian Cysts.

A desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) presented in a 13-year-old female with an acute abdomen due to torsion of a fallopian tube cyst. She was found to have an incidental 2 cm pedunculated, solid, and multicystic mass attached to the pelvic floor on laparoscopy. The neoplasm had a variably myxoid and spindle cell pattern with nests and cords of small cells, forming pseudocysts, and true cysts lined by ciliated epithelium which were PAX-8+ and ER+/PR+.

Epigenetic therapies facilitate transcription of immunogenic repetitive elements that cull cancer cells through 'viral mimicry' responses. Paradoxically, cancer-initiating events also facilitate transcription of repetitive elements. Contributions of repetitive element transcription towards cancer initiation, and the mechanisms by which cancer cells evade lethal viral mimicry responses during tumor initiation remain poorly understood.

Ovarian cancer (OC) is a gynecologic disease characterized by the uncontrolled growth and proliferation of abnormal cells in the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or peritoneum. Emerging evidence has shown the pivotal role of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as miRNAs, in driving the pathogenesis of OC. miRNAs are recognized as small ncRNAs that play critical roles in regulating gene expression in normal development and in disease states, including OC.

: Cyclophosphamide (CP) is widely used for treating various cancers and autoimmune diseases, but it causes damage to reproductive organs due to oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation. Boric acid (BA) has antioxidant properties that may help reduce OS, which is critical for preserving uterine functionality, particularly for cancer patients considering pregnancy after cryopreservation. This study aimed to determine whether BA could diminish CP-induced toxicity in the uterus and fallopian tubes (FT) using CP-induced toxicity in a rat model.

Classical preimplantation embryo culture is performed in static fluid environments. Whether a dynamic fluid environment, like the fallopian tube, is beneficial for embryo development remains to be determined across mammalian species. Objectives of these proof-of-concept studies were to determine if controllable dynamic microfluidic culture would enhance preimplantation murine, bovine, and human embryo development compared to static culture.
