The third reported case of pelvic gliomatosis found within foci of endometriosis is documented 16 years after the removal of a benign cystic teratoma. Grossly at laparoscopy the lesions appear as typical deep fibrotic endometriotic implants.

Coexisting growing teratoma syndrome and gliomatosis peritonei following ovarian immature teratoma: a case report and literature review.

Growing teratoma syndrome (GTS) is characterized by a reduction in serum tumor markers despite the growth of a benign mature teratomatous mass following chemotherapy for germ cell tumors. Gliomatosis peritonei (GP) typically accompanies ovarian teratomas, marked by the dissemination of mature glial tissue across the peritoneum. The concurrent presence of GTS and GP after treatment for ovarian immature teratoma (IMT) is notably rare, with approximately 20 reported cases.

Article Synopsis
- This study explores how radiogenomic analysis can identify imaging biomarkers linked to DNA methylation in gliomas to improve molecular diagnosis and treatment.* -
- Machine learning techniques were applied to analyze MRI features from 146 glioma patients, resulting in models (MoRad) that accurately profile various molecular features, particularly global DNA methylation.* -
- Findings show that global DNA methylation correlates with certain MRI features, histological grades, and various molecular and immunological factors, indicating its potential as a quantitative imaging biomarker.*

Numerous conditions can mimic ovarian malignancy. Identifying the origin of a pelvic mass or disseminated peritoneal abnormality on imaging is important to ensure that the patient receives optimal management by the appropriate clinical team. Ovarian cancer mimics include infections and other neoplastic processes, for example, actinomycosis, lymphoma, and sarcoma.

Background: Neuroblastoma accounts for 15 % of cancer deaths in children. Complete surgical resection is associated with a higher overall survival rate but also a higher morbidity rate. An international group of experts has defined a nomenclature of image-defined risk factors (IDRFs) for the determination of operability and the anticipation of reasonably foreseeable complications of surgery.
