Analysis of Risk Factors for Lymphatic Metastasis in Endometrial Carcinoma and Utility of Three-Dimensional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in GynecologyThe aim of our study was to evaluate the utility of three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (3D-MRI) in gynecologic fields. We examined the relation between tumor volume measured with 3D-MRI and lymph node metastasis in patients with endometrial carcinoma.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia Acquiring Promyelocytic Leukemia-Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha at Relapse
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is identified as the M3 subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). APL is presently one of the most curable leukemias. We describe here a rare case of APL who presented as a relapsed disease after 1 year of chemotherapy for AML. The patient lacked t(15;17) at the initial presentation but was present later at the time of relapse. Full Text
