Peritoneal dissemination and retroperitoneal lymph node involvement are main routes for tumour spread of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), possibly determined by the intercellular connecting protein E-Cadherin (E-Cad) its fragments. Tumour tissue 105 advanced EOC patients was evaluated expression E-Cad, β-Catenin Calpain western blotting immunohistochemistry. Expression patterns were compared between tumours with solely intraperitoneal (pT3c, pN0; n=41) metastases (pT1a-3c, pN1; n=64)....

In ovarian cancer, there are two main routes of metastasis, namely intraperitoneal and retroperitoneal. Their biologic background is poorly understood. Identifying molecular markers involved might enable the development tailored therapy regimens. Moreover, no reliable for response to anti-angiogenic treatment with bevacizumab yet established. Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) an angiogenic growth factor, in lymphatic activation associated tumor progression. Here, we assessed potential Ang-2 as a marker...
Superficially invasive stage IA squamous vulvar cancer (VSCC) is defined as a single lesion measuring ≤2 cm with depth of invasion ≤1.0 mm (FIGO IA). This article examines the natural course and prognosis superficially VSCC.This retrospective case series 46 patients (median age 58 years) VSCC receiving wide local excision between January 1996 November 2014 in University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf.Median tumor size was 4 mm. In 39/46 (84.8%) peri-tumoral high-grade intraepithelial...
At present, maintenance therapy with the antiangiogenic agent bevacizumab or PARP-inhibitors represent two options for BRCA-wildtype ovarian cancer patients, after platinum-based first line chemotherapy. The identification of molecular markers to predict patient response different therapies remains a major challenge. In present study we analyzed predictive potential vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) identify patients that might benefit from an therapy.101 primary epithelial were...
The value of pelvic lymphadenectomy (LAE) has been subject discussions since the 1980s. This is mainly due to fact that relation between lymph node involvement groin and pelvis poorly understood therewith need for treatment in general.N = 514 patients with primary vulvar squamous cell cancer (VSCC) FIGO stage ≥ IB were treated at University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf 1996 2018. In this analysis, LAE (n 21) analyzed regard prognosis involvement.The majority had T1b/T2 tumors 15, 78.9%)...
Peritoneale Tumorzelldisseminierung und retroperitonealer Lymphknoten-Befall sind die Hauptausbreitungswege des epithelialen Ovarialkarzinoms (EOC). Die Regulationsmechanismen hierfür bisher noch nicht verstanden, möglicherweise kann dem interzellulären Verbindungsprotein E-Cadherin (E-Cad) seinen Fragmenten eine funktionale Rolle zugeschrieben werden.
<h3>Background</h3> The value of pelvic lymphadenectomy (LAE) has been a subject discussion since the early 1980s. This is mainly due to fact that relation between lymph-node involvement groin and pelvis poorly understood therewith need for treatment in general. <h3>Patients Methods</h3> N=531 patients with primary vulvar squamous-cell cancer (VSCC) FIGO stage ≥ 1B were treated at University Medical Center Hamburg – Eppendorf (UKE)between 1996–2018. In this analysis only LAE (n=21) analyzed...
