we report a case of florid polypoid endometriosis presenting with advanced bulky disease in pelvis with serum ca – 125 levels of 7844u/ml. the extent of tumor, ct scan findings, elevated serum ca – 125 levels were suggestive of ovarian malignancy. histopathology demonstrated endometrial glands and stroma. glands were neither crowded nor complex and were separated by a fibromatous stroma that co...

results: the only significant difference was the older age of the malignant group vs. benign group (p = 0.001) regarding demographic findings. as concerns the clinical symptoms, presence of abdominal discomfort in pre-diagnosis period was the only significant parameter in malignant group (p = 0.001). additionally, data analysis of patients as a total group showed that specificity (96.4%), posit...

Background: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are essential tools for many molecular im-munology investigations, epitope mapping and molecular modelling, clinical laboratory di-agnostic tests and immunotherapy. Humoral immune response of immunized animals largely depends on the nature of antigen and the immunization technique. Polysaccharides and heavily-glycosylated proteins are very elusive target...
