Intra-operative cytodiagnosis of primary ovarian choriocarcinoma with Ki67 immunoexpression

Journal of Cytology, 2015
Primary ovarian choriocarcinoma is a rare neoplasm that can be gestational and non-gestational in origin. It accounts for one in 369 million pregnancies. Both types present with similar clinical, histomorphological and ultrastructural findings.

Intestinal metastasis from choriocarcinoma: a case series and literature review

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2022
Background Gestational choriocarcinoma is a rare trophoblastic tumor that spreads mainly to the lung, liver, and central nervous system. Fewer than 5% of patients present with metastasis to the gastrointestinal system and have a poor prognosis Case ...

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Inhibition of HMGA2 Leads to Reduced Cell Proliferation and Increased Apoptosis in Human Embryonal Carcinoma Cell Lines

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The most prevalent solid tumors in young men are testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), and embryonal carcinoma is the most common subtype among non‐seminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCTs). Despite the excellent cure rates of cisplatin‐based chemotherapy, resistance develops in 15%–30% of patients with metastatic cancer, which results ...

A Unified Machine Learning Model for Relapse Prediction in Clinical Stage I Testicular Cancer

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Approximately one‐fourth of patients with clinical stage I testicular cancer relapse. For decades, risk stratification has been based on different tumor characteristics for seminomas and non‐seminomas. Previous studies primarily used Cox proportional‐hazards models and included only a limited number of variables.

T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the leading malignancy in adolescent and young adult males, yet the immunological and cellular mechanisms governing their tumor microenvironment (TME) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive review of TGCT pathobiology with a focus on the immune landscape, particularly the role of tumor‐

A Rare Case of Metastatic Choriocarcinoma of Lung Origin

Case Reports in Pulmonology, 2017
Choriocarcinoma is part of the spectrum of gestational trophoblastic disease that occurs in women of reproductive age. Although the most common metastatic site of choriocarcinoma is the lung, primary pulmonary choriocarcinoma is rare. To diagnose primary

Impact of Chemotherapy on Sperm Functional Characteristics in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Tumours

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) are the most common malignancies among young men and represent a major threat to reproductive health. Both the disease itself and oncological treatments, particularly chemotherapy, can compromise spermatogenesis and semen quality.

Short tandem repeats genotyping of gestational choriocarcinoma – our experiences

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology
Objective: This short communication demonstrates how short tandem repeat genotyping can identify the origin of gestational choriocarcinoma. Materials and methods: The origin of gestational choriocarcinoma in our three cases was determined using the short
