Sentinel Node Mapping in Endometrial Cancer with Radioactive Colloid Injection: A Feasibility Study
Abstract: Role of lymphadenectomy in endometrial cancer is a much-debated one. Sentinel node mapping procedure attempts to minimize the morbidity of lymphadenectomy while providing the required prognostic information. In this study, we are attempting to detect the feasibility of SLN detection in early endometrial cancer by using radioactive technetium colloid injection. This is a prospective non-randomized single-institution study where patients with apparently early endometrial cancer without enlarged lymph nodes underwent preoperative …

A Rare Case of Signet-Ring Cell Stromal Tumor (SRST) of the Ovary
Abstract: Signet Ring-Cell Stromal Tumor (SRST) of the ovary is a rare nonfunctioning distinctive stromal neoplasm and is characterized by a proliferation of stromal and signet-ring cells. To date, only 11 cases have been reported in English literature. The tumor is characterized by a proliferation of stromal spindle cells in the form of a typical fibroma, admixed with various amounts of stromal cells with a single large vacuole and eccentric nuclei, …
