IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL EXPRESSION OF CD133 IN OVARIAN SURFACE EPITHELIAL TUMORS [PDF]
Background: The identification of antigenic profile of the cancer stem cells might have relevant clinical implication as they're able to proliferate and self-renew, in turn sustaining tumor growth.

Degenerated Uterine Leiomyomas Mimicking Malignant Bilateral Ovarian Surface Epithelial Tumors
Uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign uterine neoplasms. Undegenerated uterine leiomyomas are easily recognizable by the typical imaging findings on radiologic studies. However, degenerated fibroids can have unusual and variable appearances.

The Prognostic Value of CD133 in Ovarian Surface Epithelial Tumors [PDF]
Background: Ovarian cancer, the fifth leading cause of cancer-related death in women, is a highly lethal disease among all gynecologic malignancies.Stem cells (SCs) are undifferentiated cells destined to replenish the pool of mature cells whenever needed.In recent years, accumulating data demonstrate that a small subset of cells exists within a tumor ...

Ependymoma of the broad ligament mimicking an ovarian surface epithelial tumor
We report a case of ependymoma of the broad ligament occurring in a 21-year-old woman. CT and MRI findings showed a 40-mm-diameter, well-demarcated cystic mass with a lobulated solid component in the right pelvis. The solid component showed heterogeneous intermediate signal intensity on T2-weighted image and prolonged mild contrast enhancement.

Expression and Mutational Analysis of c-kit in Ovarian Surface Epithelial Tumors [PDF]
Coexpression of Kit ligand and c-kit has been reported in some gynecologic tumors. To determine whether imatinib mesylate is useful in ovarian epithelial tumors, we performed immunohistochemical and mutational analysis. The cases consisted of 33 cases, which included 13 serous cystadenocarcinomas, 1 borderline serous tumor, 8 mucinous ...
