Accuracy of Ultrasound in the Prediction of the FIGO Classification of Placenta Accreta Spectrum.

Objectives: To evaluate the accuracy of greyscale ultrasound (US) and colour Doppler detecting placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) based on the newly recommended International Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (FIGO) grading system.

Methods: This prospective study was conducted on women diagnosed with placenta previa or low-lying placenta involving the anterior uterine wall and associated with PAS as identified by the US. Transabdominal and transvaginal greyscale US was performed on admission between 34 and 36 weeks of gestation and compared to clinical grading and histopathological examination after cesarean hysterectomy.

Kasr Alainy simplified uterine preserving surgery for conservative management of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS): A modified surgical approach.

Objective: The incidence of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is rising rapidly due to the global surge in Caesarean delivery. It is associated with significant maternal morbidity and mortality. It is usually managed with Caesarean hysterectomy.

Fertility Preserving Surgery Outcomes for Ovarian Malignancy: Data from a Tertiary Cancer Centre in Central London.

Fertility Sparing Surgery (FSS) appears to be a safe means of treating early-stage ovarian cancer based on relatively limited evidence. However, there is currently insufficient evidence to aid women in counselling about their potential fertility outcomes. The aim of this study was to assess the reproductive outcomes and prognosis of women who have undergone FSS for ovarian malignancy.

The role of ultrasound in prediction of intra-operative blood loss in cases of placenta accreta spectrum disorders.

Purpose: To assess the value of various grey-scale ultrasound, 2D color Doppler, and 3D power Doppler sonographic markers in predicting major intraoperative blood loss during planned cesarean hysterectomy for cases diagnosed with placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders.

Methods: 50 women diagnosed with PAS were scanned the day before planned delivery and hysterectomy for various sonographic markers indicative of placental invasion. These women were then later divided according to blood loss in two groups: group A (minor hemorrhage, < 2500 ml), and group B (major hemorrhage, > 2500 ml), and the data were analyzed.

Role of Oral Tramadol 50 mg in Reducing Pain During Colposcopy-Directed Cervical Biopsy: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Objective: The aim of the study was to assess safety and efficacy of 50-mg tramadol in reducing patient-perceived pain during colposcopy.

Material And Methods: We conducted a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial in the colposcopy unit of a tertiary referral hospital, Cairo, Egypt, from April 2018 to October 2018. Our primary outcome was pain during colposcopy-guided ectocervical punch biopsy.
