Management of Uterine Sarcomas - Current Concepts and Controversies
Abstract: Uterine sarcomas are a group of relatively rare malignancies with heterologous clinical behavior. Because of its rarity, there is dearth of randomized trials and hence there are no standard recommendations as how to manage these cases. Carcinosarcomas are now a separate entity and is managed similar to high grade endometrial carcinoma, since the sarcomatous element is proven to be of endometrial origin. Now, the major variants are leomyosarcoma (LMS), endometrial …

A Review on Unmasking Merkel Cell Polyomavirus: From Discovery to Cancer Driver
Abstract: Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) is a small, non-enveloped, circular double-stranded DNA virus belonging to the Polyomaviridae family, first characterized in 2008. Epidemiological data suggest widespread exposure, with seroprevalence rates approaching 80% in adults. While primary infection is typically asymptomatic, rare integration events in Merkel cells can initiate oncogenesis, yielding Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), a neuroendocrine skin cancer with a five-year survival rate under 60%. This review integrates findings from six …
