thirty pairs ovaries of camel from isfahan abattoiry were collected. in each specimen,  some parameters such as  length, width and thickness of left and right ovaries were measured. for histological studies , after tissue preparation  and staining with h&e;, the ovarian follicles were recognized and classified. for each follicle some parameters such as: diameter of oocyte and follicle, thicknes...

INTRODUCTION Psammocarcinoma of ovary is a rare serous neoplasm characterized by extensive formation of psammoma bodies, invasion of ovarian stroma, peritoneum or intraperitoneal viscera, and moderate cytological atypia. Extensive medlar search showed presence of only 28 cases of psammocarcinoma of ovary reported till date. CASE PRESENTATION We herein report a case of psammocarcinoma of ovary...

Background and Objectives Attention to ovary dose is important for premenopausal women undergoing radiation therapy (RT) and must not be overlooked when treating extremity sarcoma. We assessed whether ovary-sparing RT plans could decrease ovary dose without compromising target coverage. Methods Standard sarcoma target volumes and organs at risk (OAR) were contoured by a sarcoma dedicated radi...

Nodular histiocytic/mesothelial hyperplasia (NHMH) is a very rare condition. It generally thought to be associated with repeated mechanical or chemical stimulation. This study reported NHMH papillary growth pattern in the ovary following high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment for uterine leiomyoma and adenomyosis. A 48-year-old female, who had history of undergoing HIFU 7 times aden...

The 3D internal structure microscopy (3D-ISM) was applied to the equine ovary, which possesses peculiar structural characteristics. Stereolithography was applied to make a life-sized model by means of data obtained from 3D-ISM. Images from serially sliced surfaces contributed to a successful 3D reconstruction of the equine ovary. Photopolymerized resin models of equine ovaries produced by stere...

The ontogeny of Criconema octangulare (Cobb, 1914) Taylor, 1936, is examined and shows ovary development and body length to be of primary importance in differentiating its life-cycle stages. Second-stage juveniles can be identified by body length and ovary length. The third stage can be distinguished from the second by longer body and ovary length, and from the fourth by a shorter ovary. The fo...

Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine disorder affecting 1 in 10 women. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome can experience co-morbidities, including depressive symptoms. This research explores the experience of living with polycystic ovary syndrome and co-morbidities. Totally, 10 participants with polycystic ovary syndrome took part in Skype™ interviews and analysed using thematic analysis...

The ovary receives a finite pool of follicles during fetal life. Atresia remains the major form of follicular expenditure at all stages since development of ovary. The follicular reserve, however, declines at an exponential rate leading to accelerated rate of decay during the years preceding menopause. We examined if diminished follicle reserve that characterizes ovarian aging impacts the attri...
