| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Uterine diffuse leiomatosis (UDL) is a rare disease entity, and genetic background is not clarified yet. As recent genome wide analysis revealed the driver genetic change through tumorigenesis of usual leiomyoma, genetic analysis was conducted using FFPE samples of UDL treated in our department.
Due to the limitation of DNA amount and quality, satisfactory analysis has not been completed so far, but as alternative projects, whole genome analysis of ovarian clear cell carcinoma and molecular analysis of uterine leiomyosarcoma was successfully completed, and several articles were published using this budget.
