Retroperitoneal Major Pelvic Arteries' Anatomic Variation: Pictorial Essay and Significance in Obstetrical and Gynecological Surgery.

Introduction: Congenital anomalies of the iliac arteries are rare, and are usually discovered incidentally or infrequently intraoperatively.

Aim: To show the retroperitoneal major pelvic blood vessels anatomical variation during gynecologic and obstetrics surgeries in cases of retroperitoneal dissection.

Patients: We report three cases with incidental finding of anatomical variation in retroperitoneal major pelvic blood vessels.

Surgical Approaches for Common Gynecologic and Obstetrics Surgeries.

Common obstetrics and gynecology operations have different approaches and techniques and variations in the procedure. We aimed to discuss different approaches and variations in the techniques of the procedures as cystectomy, myomectomy, laparoscopy entry technique, sacrospinous ligament fixation, uretherocele, and rupture uterus.

Sonographic Criteria for Uterine Curettage: Suspecting Endometrial Neoplasia.

The aim of the work is to determine the Suspicious sonographic findings associated with endometrial hyperplasia or cancer in premenopausal and perimenopausal women requiring uterine curettage other than endometrial thickness. Transvaginal ultrasonography examinations of premenopausal and perimenopausal women were reported here. These women underwent endometrial biopsy based on abnormal uterine bleeding or discharge and sonographic endometrial abnormalities.

Gynecological and postpartum ultrasonography of cesarean uterine scar defects: a pictorial essay.

There is an increasing incidence of cesarean scar defect. This article will discuss and show different and variable sonographic presentations of scar niches and uterine postpartum ultrasonography with vaginal birth after cesarean section that can be confusing and many should be unaware of. This brief review aims to help practitioners to avoid confusion and be aware and acquainted with the different sonographic findings encountered in practice related to cesarean scar.

Asymptomatic Auto Amputation of Normal Ovary.

Free-floating intraperitoneal mass is rare and mostly is  related to the ovary. Asymptomatic auto amputation of the ovary is extremely rare that may be due to torsion or inflammation and usually is diagnosed incidentally . We report an interesting case of this rare pathology.

Large Multilocular Cystic Lesions in the Uterine Cervix: Differential Diagnosis and Significance.

Introduction: Cervical nabothian cysts are common in women of reproductive age. Although cysts are generally small and asymptomatic, large ones are extremely rare and may be misdiagnosed as malignancy.

Case Study: We report a case of large multiple complex nabothian cyst, which was suspected as malignant one on imaging and examination.

Laparoscopy and Computed Tomography Imaging in Advanced Ovarian Tumors: A Roadmap for Prediction of Optimal Cytoreductive Surgery.

Introduction: Comprehensive staging laparotomy and cytoreductive surgery followed by chemotherapy has been the standard of care in advanced ovarian cancer. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is an alternative in inoperable advanced cases. To select patients amenable for successful cytoreduction, major determinants including CT imaging and laparoscopy could be of value.

Conservative Management of Infected Postpartum Uterine Dehiscence after Cesarean Section.

There is an increase in cesarean rates worldwide. Parallel to this, the complications increased. Among these complications, uterine dehiscence and pelvic hematoma with abscess collection have increased.

Huge Broad Ligament Fibroid with Paracervical Extension: A Safe Approach by Same Setting Myomectomy before Hysterectomy.

The broad ligament is the most common extrauterine site for leiomyoma but with low incidence rate. We present a patient with complaints of lower abdominal pain and abdominal distension. Abdominal examination revealed a huge firm mass arising from the pelvis corresponding to 24-week size.

Large Subchorionic Hematoma: Breus' Mole.

A case of large subchorionic hematoma complicated by intrauterine growth retardation and oligohydramnios diagnosed at 32 weeks' gestation with twin pregnancy after ICSI is reported below. The patient was on clexane injection during pregnancy for mitral valve replacement. She was managed with tocolysis using progesterone therapy and antibiotic with fol-lowup until delivery.

Recurrent Bilateral Mucinous Cystadenoma: Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy with Review of Literature.

The second most common epithelial tumor of the ovary is the mucinous tumors, and it constitutes about 8-10% of all ovarian tumors. The recurrence of mucinous cystadenoma is very rare after complete excision. Few cases have been reported.

Value and best way for detection of Sentinel lymph node in early stage endometrial cancer: Selective lymphadenectomy algorithm.

Introduction: The cornerstone of treatment for endometrial carcinoma is total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophoprectomy. Pelvic lymphadenectomy, with or without para-aortic lymphadenectomy, plays an important role in the surgical staging of endometrial carcinoma, and provides more accurate prognostic information.

Aims: We aimed to evaluate the value and techniques for SLN mapping in early stage endometrial cancer with low risk for lymph node metastasis and whether selective or systematic lymphadenectomy is needed according to the results of proposed algorithm.

Extensive uterine arteriovenous malformation with hemodynamic instability: Embolization for whole myometrium affection.

Uterine arteriovenous malformation is abnormal and nonfunctional connections between the uterine arteries and veins. Patients typically present with vaginal bleeding which may be life-threatening. Treatment depends on the symptoms, age, desire for future fertility, localization and size of the lesion.

Complete Molar Pregnancy in Postmenopausal Woman.

Gestational trophoblastic disease spectrum ranges from benign hydatidiform mole to trophoblastic malignancy (placental site trophoblastic tumor and choriocarcinoma). Benign gestational trophoblastic disease occurs in women of reproductive age and is extremely rare in postmenopausal women. We describe a case of complete vesicular mole in a 55-year-old postmenopausal woman complaining of postmenopausal bleeding.

Comparative study between benzydamine hydrochloride gel, lidocaine 5% gel and lidocaine 10% spray on endotracheal tube cuff as regards postoperative sore throat.

Postoperative sore throat is a common complication after endotracheal intubation. After tracheal intubation, the incidence of sore throat varies from 14.4% to 50%.
