Expression profiling of serous low malignant potential, low-grade, and high-grade tumors of the ovary.
Papillary serous low malignant potential (LMP) tumors are characterized by malignant features and metastatic potential yet display a benign clinical course. The role of LMP tumors in the development of invasive epithelial cancer of the ovary is not clearly defined. The aim of this study is to determine the relationships among LMP tumors and invasive ovarian cancers and identify genes contributi...
متن کاملThe Continuum of Serous Tumors of Low Malignant Potential and Low-Grade Serous Carcinomas of the Ovary
The role of serous tumors of low malignant potential (LMP) in the development of invasive epithelial cancer of the ovary is debatable. This review summarizes the current clinical, genetic, and genomic evidence for the existence of a continuum comprising both LMP serous tumors and low-grade serous ovarian carcinomas.
متن کاملDetermination of CD117 Expression in Glial Tumors and Its Comparison between High Grade and Low Grade Tumors
Background and Objective: Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors. Despite therapeutic advances, the majority of gliomas do not respond to either chemo or radiotherapy. CD117, the gene product of c-kit has been expressed in cells of glial tumors. Because gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) that express CD117 respond dramatically to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, ide...
متن کاملCT features of low grade serous carcinoma of the ovary.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the CT features of pathologically proven low grade serous carcinoma (LGSC) of the ovary. METHODS Patients with a pathologic diagnosis of LGSC and CT prior to oophorectomy were retrospectively identified. The CT scans in 14 patients were available and were analyzed for an adnexal mass, peritoneal mass and ascites. The adnexal mass was characterized as complex primarily cy...
