Endometriosis (EMs) is an estrogen-dependent chronic inflammatory disease, and its pathogenesis remains unclear. Although the placenta is an organ with tumor-like characteristics, its development, including its invasive function, is tightly …
Ovarian endometriosis (OE) is a chronic, inflammatory gynecological disorder associated with sterility and an elevated risk of ovarian cancer. Despite its high prevalence, the complex molecular mechanisms governing OE pathogenesis …
Endometriosis is a chronic estrogen-dependent inflammatory disease affecting approximately 10% of women of reproductive age and characterized by ectopic endometrial-like tissue growth. Although traditionally considered a benign gynecological condition, increasing …
Endometriosis, particularly ovarian endometrioma, is associated with a 2-fold increased risk of ovarian cancer (OC), especially the clear cell and endometrioid subtypes. However, the absolute lifetime risk of OC in …
Endometriosis has been associated with several risk factors for cancer, and population-based research has shown that women with endometriosis have a higher risk of several types of cancer. The aim …
Ovarian cancer (OC) remains a major global health issue, often diagnosed late and lacking effective screening.
To critically evaluate the evidence linking endometriosis to ovarian cancer, with particular focus on endometrioid and clear cell histologic subtypes, and to inform risk stratification and patient counseling.
Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), a member of the neurotrophin family, is currently regarded as a key regulator of ovarian physiology beyond its well-known neurotrophic functions. The mammalian ovary is one …
Endometriosis is linked to an increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), especially clear cell and endometrioid subtypes. The extent and prognostic significance of this link are still not fully …
Endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer arising from the malignant transformation of endometriosis (EMS). Despite growing clinical awareness, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms are not fully …
