AI Article Synopsis

  • A 65-year-old postmenopausal woman experienced one day of vaginal bleeding, leading to imaging studies that revealed a uterine tumor.
  • After a total hysterectomy and removal of both ovaries and fallopian tubes, further analysis confirmed she had a rare condition called Uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex cord tumor (UTROSCT).
  • Following surgery, she received adjuvant chemotherapy and has been doing well during her follow-up appointments.

Article Abstract

We report a case of a 65-year-old postmenopausal female patient who presented with 1 day of vaginal bleeding. Imaging studies diagnosed a uterine tumor lesion, and the patient underwent a total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. The excised specimen was sent for pathological examination, and based on immunohistochemical analysis, the patient was ultimately diagnosed with Uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex cord tumor (UTROSCT). Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was administered, and the patient has been in good condition during the follow-up period.

To evaluate the impact of open surgical care (OSC) compared to minimally invasive surgery (MIS) on the occurrence of wound infection (WI) and overall postoperative aggregate complications (POACs) in female cervical cancer (CC) patients, we conducted this meta-analysis study. A thorough examination of the literature up to March 2024 was conducted, and 1849 related studies were examined. The 44 studies that were selected included 11,631 females who had CC.

Background: Despite Zambia implementing the World Health Organisation's (WHO) tri-pillar cervical cancer prevention goals 90-70-90 Prevent, Screen, and Treat, cervical cancer claims 2000 lives annually and reigns as the most common cancer among women, especially those living with HIV (WLHIV). Our study describes the national uptake of screening and treatment from the ZAMPHIA 2021 survey.

Methods: Utilising a two-stage cluster sampling approach, the study included participants aged 15 years and older across Zambia's ten provinces.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Lichong decoction (LD) is extensively employed in the treatment of uterine leiomyoma (ULM), demonstrating remarkable clinical effectiveness with an absence of notable adverse reactions. Its composition aligns with the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) etiology of ULM, making it a highly suitable therapy. Nonetheless, the precise mechanisms underlying its therapeutic actions remain to be fully elucidated.

Uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS) is a rare and aggressive cancer representing approximately 25 % of all uterine malignancies. The molecular heterogeneity and pathogenesis of uLMS are not well understood, and translational studies aimed at discovering the vulnerabilities of this tumor type are of high priority. We conducted an innovative comprehensive multi-omics integration study from DNA to protein using freshly frozen tumors.
