A 57-year-old female patient complained of atypical genital bleeding and a noxious emanation from her navel. A histological examination of the uterine body and the navel area confirmed a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. We diagnosed it as IVb stage of uterine corpus cancer with a Sister Mary Joseph's nodule. We selectively administered intraarterial injection chemotherapy (Cisplatin 120 mg, Pirarubicin 40 mg) in the uterus and navel area (three times, once every three weeks) prior to surgery. The isolated uterus showed that the cancerous tissue had been eradicated, and we judged the cancer to be grade 3 following histopathological effective grading standards. The metastasis exhibited extreme shrinkage, but affirmed changes in the tumor quality. Currently, the patient is receiving maintenance therapy of 600 mg of Hysron H, and 600 mg of UFT. There are no indications of recurrence, and the patient is progressing well.

Cuproptosis, a recently discovered form of cell death, has emerged as a crucial player in tumor development, although its role in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) remains inadequately explored. This study aims to identify prognostically relevant cuproptosis-related genes in endometrial cancer. Cuproptosis-related genes were sourced from previously published studies and the FerrDb database.

Background: The classification of uterine sarcomas is based on distinctive morphological and immunophenotypic characteristics, increasingly supported by molecular genetic diagnostics. Data on neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase () gene fusion-positive uterine sarcoma, potentially aggressive and morphologically similar to fibrosarcoma, are limited due to its recent recognition. Pan-TRK immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis serves as an effective screening tool with high sensitivity and specificity for -fusion malignancies.

Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths in the United States and compiles the most recent data on population-based cancer occurrence and outcomes using incidence data collected by central cancer registries (through 2021) and mortality data collected by the National Center for Health Statistics (through 2022). In 2025, 2,041,910 new cancer cases and 618,120 cancer deaths are projected to occur in the United States. The cancer mortality rate continued to decline through 2022, averting nearly 4.

Background: Chromosomal instability (CIN) has been identified as a factor that increases the susceptibility of tumor cells to kinesin family member 18A (KIF18A) inhibitors. Limited research exists on genes that are associated with sensitization to KIF18A inhibitors (KIF18Ais). Our study aimed to identify a gene linked to heightened sensitivity to KIF18Ais in cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC) and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC).
