Molecular Genetic Alterations In Endometrial And Ovarian Cancers
Popular Abstract in Swedish Svensk Sammanfattning Gen-förändringar i endometrie- och ovarial cancer: Endometriecancer (EC, cancer i livmoderslemhinnan) är den vanligaste gynekologiska cancerformen i västvärlden. Tumörutvecklingen kan associeras till en östrogen-inducerad stimulans av endometriets tillväxt i avsaknad av den differentierande effekten av progesteron. Den maligna cancern föregås i visEndometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer diagnosed in western countries. Complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) reflects a state of hyperestrinism and its role as a precursor lesion of this cancer is established. Endometrial cancers arising in association with CAH are reported in women of younger age, with early stage disease, favorable histological types, higher progesterone recepto
