Prognostic impact of lymphadenectomy in uterine clear cell carcinoma
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to estimate the survival impact of lymphadenectomy in patients diagnosed with uterine clear cell cancer (UCCC). METHODS Patients with a diagnosis of UCCC were identified from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program from 1988 to 2007. Only surgically treated patients were included. Statistical analysis using Student t-test, Kaplan-Meier su...
متن کاملSurgical management of non-invasive uterine clear cell carcinoma
Uterine clear cell carcinoma (UCCC) is an uncommon and aggressive type II endometrial tumor that constitutes only 1%–6% of all endometrial carcinomas [1]. In 1976, its poor prognosis compared to endometrioid endometrial carcinoma was reported in a series of 21 cases by Kurman and Scully [2]. More recently, the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) Annual Report 2006 indic...
متن کاملUterine Clear Cell Carcinoma of Postmenopausal Woman: A Case Report

Clear cell carcinoma typically occurs in the ovaries, and very rarely occurs in the endometrium; it accounts for less than 3% of all endometrial cancers. It is presumed that clear cell carcinomas are of Müllerian duct origin, and an association with exposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES) or other nonsteroidal fol...
متن کاملHyalinizing Clear Cell Carcinoma of Buccal Vestibule: A Rare Case
Hyalinizying clear cell carcinoma is a rare tumor which affects women more than men and is more common in minor salivary glands. The purpose of this paper was to describe a case of hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma of buccal vestibule in a 55-year-old woman. It is important to differentiate this neoplasm from other tumors with clear cell features because of their differences in treatment and cli...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma.
Renal cell carcinoma of clear-cell type (ccRCC) is an enigmatic tumor type, characterized by frequent inactivation of the VHL gene (infrequently mutated in other tumor types), responsiveness to angiogenesis inhibitors, and resistance to both chemotherapy and conventional radiation therapy. ccRCC tumors exhibit substantial mutation heterogeneity. Recent studies using massively parallel sequencin...
