Bilateral Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma Arising in 17 Year Longstanding History of Bilateral Ovarian Endometriosis
Clear cell carcinoma of ovary is uncommon ovarian tumour that arises from surface epithelium of ovary. It has well-known association with ovarian endometriosis. We report here the first case of bilateral clear cell carcinoma of ovaries in a 40-year-old woman with a 17-year history of bilateral ovarian endometriosis. In addition, during the longstanding duration of the endometriosis, the patient...
متن کاملPrimary Clear Cell Carcinoma with no Diethylstilbestrol Exposure; Case Series
One of the rare neoplasms of cervix uteri and vagina is clear cell carcinoma; mostly in patients with a positive past medical history of intrauterine diethylstilbestrol (DES) exposure which reveals the importance of other unknown risk factors of gynecologic neoplasms. 2 Asian women referred to the gynecology-oncology department. The first one came with a complaint of prolonged vaginal discharge...
متن کاملTelomere length in peripheral blood predicts survival in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Telomeres are repetitive structures located at chromosome ends. Previous studies have indicated that blood cell telomeres may serve as a biomarker for cancer risk. In addition, we recently reported that blood telomere length predicted survival in patients with breast cancer. In the present study, we examined whether blood telomere length may act as a predictor for survival in newly diagnosed pa...
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 کاملGli 1 protein expression in different types of basal cell carcinoma
Background and aim: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cancer in humans. Activation of Hedgehog (Hh) signal has a key role in development of BCC. The end result of Hedgehog signal are Gli proteing. Gli 1 is a member of this family which activates DNA transcription. Previous studies showed increased expression of Gli 1 in BCC.Materials and methods: In this study 38 pathologic samples ...
