Urinary Proteomic Assessment of Ovarian Malignancy and Disease Progression
The goal of this observational study is to determine the urinary proteomic characteristics in women with and without ovarian cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the difference in urinary protein composition between patients with ovarian cancer and those without it? 2. Can these differences in urinary protein composition aid in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer? 3. Are urinary protein markers associated with tumor burden in urine samples from patients with ovarian cancer? 4. Can urinary protein markers be used for disease surveillance in ovarian cancer patients?
• Female patients in the gynecological ward for surgical treatment.
• Initial diagnosis of pelvic mass or malignant ascites may be considered as ovarian cancer; Or the initial diagnosis of ovarian cyst, hydrosalpinx, uterine fibroids or uterine adenomyosis are considered as gynecological non-malignant diseases.
• Over 18 years of age.
