Cancer Diagnosis & Prognosis 4(4) 454-458 2024年7月1日Background/Aim: Upper gastrointestinal obstruction is an extremely rare complication of primary ovarian cancer. We present a case of primary advanced ovarian cancer with gastroduodenal obstruction successfully managed with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and conservative treatment. Case Report: A 60-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for advanced ovarian cancer with upper gastrointestinal obstruction. Computed tomography and endoscopy revealed severe duodenal obstruction caused by dissemination. NAC was initiated with conservative management using a nasogastric tube and total parenteral nutrition (TPN). She was able to eat and TPN was stopped after three months. Complete resection was achieved with interval debulking surgery (IDS) not involving pancreatoduodenectomy, which would have been necessary for primary debulking surgery. There were no serious postoperative complications. Conclusion: NAC with conservative management can improve upper gastrointestinal obstruction in patients with primary advanced ovarian cancer. Furthermore, IDS is expected to allow complete resection, avoiding highly invasive surgeries.

The journal of obstetrics and gynaecology research 2023年2月15日Asymptomatic hydronephrosis following hysterectomy is generally transient. Here, we present the case of a 52-year-old woman who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for benign indications. Computed tomography (CT) to examine bleeding on the second postoperative day incidentally revealed bilateral grade II hydronephrosis. Asymptomatic hydronephrosis was not reevaluated, and gynecological outpatient follow-up was terminated with a normal creatinine level on postoperative day 43. On postoperative day 107, the patient noticed weight gain of 10 kg, decreased urine output, and generalized edema. The serum creatinine level was elevated to 5.4 mg/dL, and CT revealed bilateral grade III hydronephrosis. Urgent bilateral ureteral stenting was performed to treat stenosis of the distal ureters that caused postrenal failure. Ureteroneocystostomy was performed for strict stenosis of the right ureter at 10 months postoperatively. Histological examination of the resected distal ureter showed inflammation and fibrosis. Asymptomatic hydronephrosis developing after hysterectomy progress to delayed postrenal failure.

Genes, chromosomes & cancer 2023年1月29日Several cancers harbor "enhancer-type" mutations of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter for immortalization. Here, we report that 8.6% (8/93) of ovarian clear cell carcinomas (OCCCs) possess the "suppressor-type" TERT promoter mutation. The recurrence rate of OCCCs with "suppressor-type" TERT promoter mutations was 62.5% (5 of 8) and was significantly higher than that of the "unaffected-type" with no mutation (20.8%, 15 of 72) or "enhancer-type" TERT promoter mutations (7.7%, 1 of 13). Our findings show that the acquired suppression of TERT is closely associated with OCCC development and recurrence, indicating the need for further research on telomerase suppression in cancers.

Gynecologic oncology 96(1) 194-7 2005年1月OBJECTIVE: Chemoradiation based on cisplatin is the standard treatment for locally advanced cervical carcinoma; however, the optimal scheduling and dosing have still not been established. This study was conducted to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of cisplatin for daily administration during pelvic radiotherapy (RT). METHODS: Fourteen patients with locally advanced cervical carcinoma and 13 who required postoperative RT were registered. A low dose of cisplatin was given daily concurrently with RT. Cisplatin dosing was started at 6.0 mg/m(2)/day, which was incremented by 0.5 mg/m(2)/day. RT was delivered at 2 Gy/day to a total dose of 50 Gy. The MTD was defined as the dose level immediately below that causing dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in over one-third of treated patients. RESULTS: Twenty-five patients were treated with a maximum of six escalating dose levels. In 22/25 patients (88%), cisplatin was administered continuously as planned without interruption. The MTD was determined to be 8 mg/m(2) and the DLT was indicated by the onset of neutropenia. CONCLUSION: Daily cisplatin, at 8 mg/m(2)/day, is a well-tolerated radiosensitizer in cervical carcinoma patients.
