The exact time of induction seems to be irrelevant between expected date of delivery and the next 10 days.

However, there was a positive correlation between PChE and LDL levels in pregnant women with GD, suggesting that LDL levels in pregnant women with GD may help to predict the risk of prolonged apnea in situations in which PChE activity cannot be measured.

As the neoplastic lesion progresses from a premalignant state to endometrial cancer, PAX2 expression increases.

The awareness of legal precedent can alert providers to possibility of an exception to the general presumption that the mother is competent, where it might trigger a legal or ethical council. Screening inventories (covering maternal–fetal attachment, judgmental fitness, prior obstetrical history, perinatal risk, formal/informal social support) jointly developed by the health providers and lawyers would assist involved parties in resolving complex situations without resorting to legal conflicts.

Although it was impossible to distinguish between intentional and non-intentional weight loss, these results argue against weight loss for risk reduction in patients with confirmed endometrial cancer. However, it may be reasonable regarding the risk reduction of non-cancer related morbidity and mortality. Detailed, prospective randomised trials are warranted.

The role of medication to control blood pressure (BP) in mild to moderate PIH is controversial. Aims  We conducted a prospective study to investigate whether pharmacological treatment of mild to moderate PIH is effective in improving maternal and fetal outcomes. Methods  A total of 150 consecutive pregnant women without proteinuria and with physician-recorded systolic BP of 140–160 mmHg and/or diastolic BP of 90–105 mmHg on two occasions ≥6 h apart between 20 and 38 weeks of gestation were randomly allocated to receive either labetalol or methyldopa (50 patients each) plus standard care (treatment gro...

Ligasure places larger range of thermal damage in horizontal direction with little depth in vertical direction, which is rather safe when acting on uterine surface. Electrocoagulation was conducted with monopolar (the power is 55 W) and bipolar forceps (the power is 40 W) continuously for 3 s, whose thermal damage range is fairly safe to corpus uteri wall and fundus uteri.

Magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass occupying most of the vagina that had lobulated outlines and heterogeneous echo texture. The serum alpha-fetoprotein was elevated, and a biopsy revealed a vaginal yolk sac tumor. The patient was given six cycles of chemotherapy and continues to be disease-free on follow up. To preserve sexual and reproductive function, we encourage consideration of chemotherapy as a sole modality to treat this rare tumor.

Detection rates of CIN2 lesions significantly increased with a 1-year follow-up VIA/VILI screen. Therefore, if multiple cervical cancer screenings are not feasible logistically or financially, a one-time VIA/VILI may be the most efficient strategy to detect cervical cancer and most CIN3 lesions in women in low-resource settings.

In addition, the reader will understand the appearance of BOTs at imaging techniques; the reader will be able to compare and combine ultrasonography, MRI and positron emission tomography in diagnosing BOTs. In clinical practice, the reader should be better able to assess whether an ovarian mass is a benign tumor, a BOT or an invasive cancer.

These findings suggested that COC may reduce or stimulate the adiponectin and leptin concentrations, respectively. This might be due to an effect of these pills on adipocyte maturation via inhibition or stimulation of the synthesis of new adiponectin and leptin molecules or may be a result of the increased frequency of a particular allele of the adiponectin and leptin. It is suggested that these alterations in adiponectin and leptin concentrations and lipid profiles may be related to their probable effects in response to...

Our most relevant observation is obliteration of Douglas pouch which was found to be more extensive in women with right ovarian endometrioma. Our results showing left lateral predisposition of endometriomas are in agreement with the previous reports and highlight the retrograde menstruation theory for the pathogenesis of this enigmatic disorder.

There are also a proportion of women with severe endometriosis who remain asymptomatic. The treatment of severe endometriosis must be individualised, taking into account the impact of the disease and treatment on pain, fertility and quality of life. Surgery is usually required and multiple organs are sometimes involved. Therefore, if endometriosis is severe, referral to a center with the expertise to offer all available treatments in a multidisciplinary team, including advanced laparoscopic surgery and laparotomy, is strongly recommended. It is also important to involve the woman in all decisions, to be flexible in diagnostic and therapeutic thinking...

The clinical and the pathological correlation are poor, when abdominal pain or dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) was the preoperative clinical diagnosis. However, there was a very high correlation when the clinical diagnosis was a fibroid.

Paget cells were identified in the external urethral meatus even though nine local excisions of recurrent tumors had been performed. She was suffered from severe vesical pain from May 2007. Urine cytology was class V and physical examination revealed redness in external urethral meatus. Pelvic MRI did not show apparent lymph node swelling and the endoscopic multiple biopsies performed at multiple bladder mucosa and distal urethra. Pathological diagnosis of the endoscopic biopsy showed multiple Paget cells from urethra, posterior and bilateral lateral wall, and bladder neck. Because Paget’s disease ...

This approach was necessary in order to incorporate this type of change into the labor and delivery workflow and may serve as a paradigm for success in implementing labor and delivery quality improvement projects. In addition, administration of prophylactic antibiotics before skin incision resulted in fewer surgical-site infections following cesarean delivery. As the clinical and economic impact of surgical-site infections is considerable, the once common practice of administering antibiotics after cord clamping should be avoided.

In addition, while reduced analgesic use may represent a small cost savings for each individual patient, there is the potential for significant savings when one considers the large number of cesarean sections performed in the US annually. Prospective studies will be required to assess the full impact of the use of this new skin closure technology.

Delayed presentation of uterine perforation may be observed 1 month or more after D/E&C, although such a finding is extremely rare. Therefore, postabortal follow-up bimanual vaginal examination using transvaginal ultrasonography is recommended. The current study indicates the usefulness of MRI when myometrial perforation with or without incarceration of an extrauterine organ is suspected.

The increase in β-hCG levels is followed by an enhancement in tubal obstruction risk. Therefore, assessment of the β-hCG may be an effective tool for the prognosis of the reproductive future of these patients.

The blood sera of 168 pregnant women in 11 + 0 to 13 + 6 weeks of gestation were examined by both the COBAS (Roche Holding GmbH, Germany) and KRYPTOR (Brahms GmbH, Germany) immunoassay systems in two quality controlled laboratories. The concentration values were converted into multiple of median (MoM) values and compared through a two-tailed t test. The concentration values of PAPP-A differed significantly from each other (p < 0.0001). COBAS produced on average 0.09 MoM hi...

Here, we report a case of a 60-year-old female diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of endometrium. Total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oopherectomy and removal of pelvic lymphnodes was performed. Histologically, the tumour showed adenocarcinoma of the endometrium with mucin secretion. The stroma showed some plump reactive pleomorphic cells, resembling stromal cells, infiltrated uniformly with OGCs and mononuclear cells (MNCs). The epithelial cells of adenocarcinoma stained positive for cytokeratin (CK 7) (CAM 5.2). The osteoclastic giant cells and mononuclear cells stained positive with CD68 and negative with cytokeratin and vimentin. We conclude tha...
