Article Abstract
Lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) is the presence of tumor emboli in the endothelial-lined space at the tumor body's invasive edge. LVSI is one of three Sedlis criteria components-a prognostic tool for early cervical cancer (CC)-essential for indicating poor prognosis, such as lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, or shorter survival rate. Despite its clinical significance, an in-depth comprehension of the molecular mechanisms or immune dynamics underlying LVSI in CC remains elusive. Therefore, this study investigated tumor-immune microenvironment (TIME) dynamics of the LVSI-positive group in CC. RNA sequencing included formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) slides from 21 CC patients, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed. Functional analysis and immune deconvolution revealed aberrantly enriched PI3K/Akt pathway activation and a heterogenic immune composition with a low abundance of regulatory T cells (Treg) between LVSI-positive and LVSI-absent groups. These findings improve the comprehension of LSVI TIME and immune mechanisms, benefiting targeted LVSI therapy for CC.

Multi-parametric MRI-based radiomics nomogram for predicting lymphovascular space invasion in early-stage cervical adenocarcinoma.
Front Oncol

Department of Radiology, Jinshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.
Purpose: To develop a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics nomogram to predict lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) status in patients with early-stage cervical adenocarcinoma (CAC).
Methods: Clinicopathological and MRI data from 310 patients with histopathologically confirmed early-stage CAC were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into training (n = 186) and validation (n = 124) cohorts.
Risk factors for parametrial invasion in early-stage cervical cancer: Toward less radical surgery.

Objective: Radical hysterectomy with parametrectomy remains the standard treatment for early-stage cervical cancer but is associated with significant morbidity. Identifying patients at low risk for parametrial invasion is critical to support less invasive surgical strategies.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study evaluated 177 patients with Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2018 stage IA-IIB cervical cancer who underwent type III radical hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy between 2001 and 2020.

Background/aim: Endometrial cancer (EC) is rare in premenopausal women. The aim of this study was to describe the demographic, clinical and pathological characteristics and compare survival in the light of pathological aspects of EC in young women.
Patients And Methods: We performed a retrospective observational cohort study, analyzing data from 29 women up to 45 years of age diagnosed between 2003 and 2023 at our Institution.
Evaluating the potential of GSPT2 and CIRBP as biomarkers in endometrial cancer: Multicenter RT-PCR and IHC study.

Endometrial cancer (EC) is a prevalent gynecological malignancy that imposes significant health and economic burden on women worldwide. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression levels of G1 to S phase transition 2 (GSPT2) and cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRBP) in endometrial cancer tissues relative to normal endometrial tissues and to evaluate their potential as biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis. We conducted a prospective analysis involving RNA extraction, real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and immunohistochemistry (IHC) to assess gene expression and protein localization.

Objective: Tumor spread through air spaces (STAS) and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) have been associated with poor prognosis in stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of STAS and LVI, and to investigate the impact of adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) on survival outcomes in this patient population.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted including 392 patients with pathological stage I NSCLC who underwent surgical resection at two Kaohsiung Medical University-affiliated hospitals between 2016 and 2019.
