Case Report: Diagnosis of cervical carcinoma from pelvic tumor during pregnancy.

Cervical cancer, the fourth most prevalent cancer in women, is the most common malignant tumor of the female reproductive system and one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers during pregnancy. In Brazil, cervical cancer screening is conducted via Pap smear examination of the cervix, with a false-negative rate ranging between 2 and 50%. Colposcopy is recommended when the Pap smear results reveal abnormalities suggestive of malignancy, and biopsy is reserved for patients who are pregnant only when invasive lesions are suspected.

PET/CT-based dose-escalated definitive radiotherapy in cervical cancer: a single-institution series.

Background: The objective was to evaluate clinical outcomes and toxicity of patients with cervical cancer treated by radiotherapy with dose escalation in involved lymph nodes based on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) staging.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective cohort study involving locally advanced cervical neoplasms treated with definitive radiotherapy. Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT), and registration of PET/CT were employed in all.

Peritoneal chemotherapy delivery systems for ovarian cancer treatment: systematic review of animal models.

Introduction: Intraperitoneal chemotherapy for ovarian cancer treatment has controversial benefits as most methodologies are associated with significant morbidity. We carried out a systematic review to compare tumor response, measured by tumor weight and volume, between intraperitoneal chemotherapy delivered via drug delivery systems (DDSs) and free intraperitoneal chemotherapy in animal models of ovarian cancer. The secondary aim was to assess the toxicity of DDS-delivered chemotherapy, based on changes in animal body weight.

Feasibility and safety of combined laparoscopic and transvaginal oocyte retrieval in a woman with vaginal recurrence of cervical adenocarcinoma: a case report.

Introduction: Oocyte cryopreservation is an established technique for fertility preservation in women diagnosed with cancer. However, some clinical scenarios may preclude the commonly used transvaginal approach to oocyte retrieval. In such cases, a laparoscopic approach may be required.

Primary intestinal type mucinous adenocarcinoma of the ovary diagnosed during pregnancy - Maternal and neonatal treatment and outcomes: A case report.

The incidence of ovarian cancer during pregnancy is low. Most adnexal tumors removed during pregnancy are benign, with ovarian carcinomas found in approximately 1: 10,000-1: 50,000 pregnancies. Literature on this disease is scarce and consists mostly of retrospective studies and case reports.
