A Short History of Oocyte Pick-up
Before talking about the history of ovarian pick-up, it is important to have a look at the history of the medicine, especially to take into account the part concerning female reproductive system anatomy. The anatomical and physiological description of the ovary, the most important reproductive organ, takes place in a recent historical period with respect to other human organs. Before the fourteenth century, the ovary was considered as a female testis and the uterus as an empty penis.
Upgrading Treatment and Molecular Diagnosis in Endometrial Cancer-Driving New Tools for Endometrial Preservation?
One emerging problem for onco-gynecologists is the incidence of premenopausal patients under 40 years of age diagnosed with stage I Endometrial Cancer (EC) who want to preserve their fertility. Our review aims to define a primary risk assessment that can help fertility experts and onco-gynecologists tailor personalized treatment and fertility-preserving strategies for fertile patients wishing to have children. We confirm that risk factors such as myometrial invasion and The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging should be integrated into the novel molecular classification provided by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). We also corroborate the influence of classical…
