Prevention of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2023Given the challenges with achieving effective and durable treatment for epithelial ovarian cancer, primary prevention is highly desirable. Fortunately, decades of research have provided evidence for several strategies that can be deployed to optimize risk reduction. These include surgery, chemoprevention, and lifestyle factor modifications. These broad

Alcohol and epithelial ovarian cancer
Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 1992The relationship between alcohol consumption and the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer was analysed using data from a case-control study of 801 histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian cancers and 2114 controls in hospital for acute, non-neoplastic, gynecological, or hormone-related conditions, admitted to a network of teaching and general hospitals

Estrogens and epithelial ovarian cancer
Gynecologic Oncology, 2004Molecular mechanisms involved in ovarian carcinogenesis are still unclear, but there is growing evidence that estrogens promote tumor progression in an epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) subgroup.We reviewed current knowledge on the effects of estrogens in ovarian carcinogenesis and new potential research focuses concerning hormonal therapy of EOC ...

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2002
Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most lethal of all gynecologic malignancies. Most women have advanced stage disease. Access to appropriate initial surgical management by a gynecologic oncologist is important because treatment and survival are affected by appropriate surgical staging and debulking of tumor. After debulking/staging surgery, chemotherapy

Aspirin and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
Preventive Medicine, 2001Epidemiological evidence suggests that chronic inflammation may influence ovarian carcinogenesis. The study objective was to examine the association between the commonly used anti-inflammatory drug aspirin and epithelial ovarian cancer.The authors conducted a case-control study based in the New York University Women's Health Study cohort enrolled ...

Chemotherapy in epithelial ovarian cancer
Cancer Letters, 2011Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most common type of ovarian cancer; usually occurs in women older than 50years, and because 75% of cases are diagnosed at stage III or IV it is associated with a poor prognosis. Treatment of ovarian cancer is based on the integration of surgery and chemotherapy.

PATHOLOGY OF EPITHELIAL OVARIAN CANCER
Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 1994Ovarian epithelial tumors can be benign, LMP, and malignant. The prognoses of these three types of tumors are entirely different. A frozen section has to be done on all ovarian tumors to determine if they are benign. All lesions that are LMP or malignant have to be surgically and pathologically staged.

Prevalence of ovarian endometriosis in epithelial ovarian cancer
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 1997AbstractObjective: The objective of this study was to examine the occurrence of ovarian endometriosis in epithelial ovarian cancer in Japan. Method: The presence of ovarian endometriosis was determined by reviewing the sections of resected specimens in 172 epithelial ovarian cancers. Results: The incidence of ovarian endometriosis in ovarian cancer (14.

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition in ovarian cancer
Cancer Letters, 2010Ovarian cancer is a highly metastatic disease and the leading cause of death from gynecologic malignancy. Hence, and understanding of the molecular changes associated with ovarian cancer metastasis could lead to the identification of targets for novel therapeutic interventions. The conversion of an epithelial cell to a mesenchymal cell plays a key role

Breastfeeding, Menopause, and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
Epidemiology, 1997No previous study has examined the modifying effect of menopausal status on the association between lactation and ovarian cancer risk. We recruited 824 epithelial ovarian cancer cases and 855 community controls in three Australian states, collecting reproductive and lactation histories by means of a contraceptive calendar and pregnancy and ...
