BACKGROUND Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) encompasses a group of disorders that arise from abnormal growth of trophoblastic tissue. The spectrum of GTD includes 2 major groups: benign and malignant. The benign form is a hydatidiform mole, either complete or partial; the malignant forms, referred to as gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN), consist of invasive moles, choriocarcinomas, placental site trophoblastic tumors, and epithelioid trophoblastic tumors. Most patients who undergo evacuation of a hydatidiform mole by curettage have a disease-free period before a new tumor develops that can be considered malignant. In rare cases, metastasis occurs rapidly and manifests coincidentally before the hydatidiform mole can be evacuated. CASE REPORT A 19-year-old woman in Bandung City, West Java, Indonesia, was diagnosed with a molar pregnancy with early evidence of a mass in her vagina that was suspicious for stage II GTN. The early emergence of a vaginal mass was a rare case of early transformation of a molar pregnancy into GTN. CONCLUSIONS Careful evaluation is warranted of patients with characteristics typical of an intrauterine molar pregnancy who have an early presentation of a vaginal mass because of the possibility that the diagnosis could be GTN.
Objective: To evaluate the ability of pulsatility index (PI), resistance index (RI), and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) expression in predicting the clinical response after radiation in patients with cervical cancer. Methods: A prospective cohort was carried on in Department of Obstetric and Gynecology Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital/ Faculty of Medicine, Padjadjaran University, during the period of July 2017 to March 2018 which include 51 samples with stage IIB to IVA cervical cancer. Tumor perfusion and oxygenation were evaluated using color Doppler ultrasound indices (pulsatility index and resistance index) and the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). The clinical response was assessed 2 months after external radiation. Result: Among 51 patients, 31 patients demonstrated good response and 20 patients demonstrated poor response to radiation. The mean value of PI was significantly lower in patients who demonstrated good response as compared to patients with poor response (0.84±0.916 vs. 1.70±1.260, p = 0.004). The mean value of RI did not differ significantly (0.29±0.112 vs. to 0.36±0.189 p =0.173). HIF-1α expression was significantly lower in patients who demonstrated good response as compared to patients with poor response (1.83±1.529 vs. 6.55±2.625, p = 0.0001). In multivariate model, PI and HIF-1α expression both predicted the clinical response after radiation. Conclusion: PI and HIF-1α expression predict the clinical response after radiation in patients with cervical cancer.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of Calcitriol on cellular death in HeLa cells via autophagy and turn over due to mitochondria homeostasis.HeLa cell lines were grown in 24-well plates and treated with Calcitriol at varying doses (0.013 μM-0.325 μM) for varying time periods (2, 6, 12, and 18 h). Cell proteins were extracted with scrapers and lysed using RIPA buffer. Western blots were performed for proteins involved with autophagy (Lc3, p62), signaling (mTOR, PI3K, HIF1α), mitochondria (PGC1α, COX4, and Tom 20), and apoptosis (Caspase 3, Caspase 9, and PARP). Protein carbonyl levels were determined by measuring the indirect ROS level. An inhibition study using L-mimosine was performed to analyze the significance of HIF1α.Calcitriol treatment induced cytotoxicity in a dose- and time-dependent manner and caused growth arrest in HeLa cells. The PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway was activated, leading to inhibition of autophagy and alterations in mitochondria biogenesis homeostasis. Treatment with Calcitriol produced protein carbonyl levels similar to those in the cisplatin-treated and control groups. Increased ROS levels may cause toxicity and induce cell death specifically in cancer cells but not in normal cells. The inhibition of HIF1α partially rescued the HeLa cells from the toxic effects of Calcitriol treatment.We suggest that Calcitriol may shut down mitochondrial homeostasis in HeLa cells by inducing the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and inhibiting autophagy, which leads to cell death.

BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer is the most dangerous gynecologic cancer and one of the top five causes of cancer death in women. One of the intraoperative strategies to diagnose and manage women with ovarian cancer is by doing intraoperative frozen section examination during surgery, but not all hospitals in Indonesia have this facilities, thus makes it difficult to achieve intraoperative diagnosis, which lead to substandard management of patients with ovarian cancer. AIM: The purpose of this study is to investigate if one can determine whether an ovarian tumor is benign or not based on the gross appearance of the tumor. METHODS: This study is a comparative, analytic, and cross-sectional study to compare the results of operator’s assessment with the results of intraoperative frozen section examination in determining malignancy during surgery. After the tumor was removed, it was assessed by operator based on the gross appearance of the tumor whether the tumor was benign or not, then the tumor underwent frozen section examination, and based on the frozen section examination results, the patient was treated accordingly. Both of the results then compared to the histopathologic (paraffin block) results, as the gold standard of pathologic diagnosis. RESULTS: This study shows that variables ascites, tumor seedings, tumor surface, tumor consistency, tumor lobes, and lymph node enlargement are statistically significant (p < 0.05). The combinations of highly significant variables (p < 0.01) show that a combination of ascites and irregular tumor surface give the suggestions that an ovarian is highly likely a non-benign tumor. CONCLUSION: In the absence of intraoperative frozen section examination in a hospital, operator’s assessment based on gross appearance of the tumor can be used as a substitute for intraoperative frozen section examination to determine the malignancy of an ovarian tumor during surgery.
Background: Clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCOC) is a type of epithelial ovarian cancer, representing 5-11% of ovarian cancers.CCOCs tend to occur in the fifth to seventh decades of life, with only 10% of cases occurring in the fourth decade.On the other side, papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common histology type of thyroid carcinoma and is associated with locoregional spread.Herein, we present a rare case of double-primer ovarian and thyroid cancer, which is a clear cell ovarian carcinoma metachronous with papillary thyroid carcinoma.Case Report: A 47-year-old nulliparous woman presented to our Gynecology Oncology facility with an abdominal mass that had progressively increased in size over the last three months.She had a history of papillary thyroid cancer ten years previously and was treated with radioiodine (I-131).Physical examination revealed an immobile abdominal cystic mass measuring 20 × 18 × 15 cm.Ultrasound imaging revealed a cystic mass with a solid part, measured 16.1 × 10.9 × 12.84 cm, with M4 feature of the IOTA simple rule.CA-125 tumor marker levels were 190.1 U/mL.Ovarian cancer was suspected, and surgical staging with total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, omentectomy, frozen sectioning, and adhesiolysis was performed.Histopathological examination revealed a clear cell ovarian carcinoma.Discussion: Papillary thyroid carcinoma tends to be a locoregional metastasis, whereas distant metastases are rare.Distant metastasis often occurs decades after the primary tumor, with the most common metastatic sites being the lungs and bones.This raises an important clinical question concerning the etiology of the ovarian carcinoma: whether it represents a metastasis from the pre-existing thyroid carcinoma or a distinct primary neoplasm.Determining the precise relationship between these malignancies is crucial for guiding treatment strategies and understanding the biological behavior of the tumors involved.In this case, clear cell ovarian carcinoma arose separately from papillary thyroid carcinoma.Conclusion: Double primer cancer of the ovary and thyroid, which is a clear cell ovarian carcinoma metachronous with papillary thyroid carcinoma, is possible.
