Conservative management of a patient with endometrial carcinoma desiring fertility: how to inform?

Conservative management of patients with endometrial cancer who desire fertility is becoming widespread in certain circumstances.

Factors related to recurrence after pathological complete response to postoperative chemotherapy in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer

Aims and background. It has been appreciated for some time that the lack of detection of ovarian cancer at clinical and pathological (second-look laparotomy) evaluation is not synonymous with cure. The goal of this study was to define clinical risk factors for recurrence after complete pathological response to postoperative chemotherapy in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer
