Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is an endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer subtype. Somatic mutations in OCCC are reported in ARID1A, PIK3CA, and the TERT promoter (TERTp), as well as less commonly …
Endometrioid borderline tumors (EBTs) and seromucinous borderline tumors (SMBTs) are rare ovarian neoplasms with distinct histologic features. However, the molecular profiles of EBTs and SMBTs remain incompletely characterized. We performed …
Up to 1.6% of patients with endometriosis develop epithelial ovarian carcinoma. The genetic overlap between endometriosis and ovarian cancer has not been fully characterized. This review aims to describe the …
Sex cord-like morphology is now a well-known feature of occasional examples of endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary or fallopian tube. Recently, we have observed that these tumors are frequently negative …
Endometriosis-associated intestinal tumors (EAITs) are rare malignancies that arise from ectopic endometrial tissue, and their clinical and molecular characteristics remain poorly defined.
Trousseau's syndrome is a malignancy-associated hypercoagulable state characterized by recurrent or migratory thromboembolic events. Although frequently linked to adenocarcinomas, its association with endometrioid ovarian carcinoma in young patients is infrequently …

Epithelial ovarian carcinoma is a common gynecologic malignancy. Evidence from several studies suggests that subtypes of this cancer-specifically clear-cell ovarian carcinoma and endometrioid ovarian carcinoma (ENOC)-are associated with endometriosis. FBXW7 …
Primary peritoneal clear cell carcinoma (PPCCC) is an exceptionally rare malignancy that closely resembles gynecologic epithelial cancers clinically and histologically. Its pathogenesis is poorly understood, with possible origins from Müllerian …
