Colouterine Fistula Treated by a Double Endoscopic Approach.

Colouterine fistula associated with the use of an intrauterine device (IUD) is extremely rare. Clinical presentation may vary; however, to our knowledge, only 1 paper has previously reported menochezia as the main symptom of an utero-intestinal fistula as a complication of IUD use. Surgery is generally needed for definitive resolution of the fistula.

Transperitoneal Laparoscopic Para-Aortic Lymphadenectomy and Body Mass Index: Is It Really a Limiting Factor for the Procedure?

To explore if obesity measured by body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m represents a limiting factor for para-aortic lymphadenectomy done with a transperitoneal laparoscopic approach. Retrospective observational study with 146 consecutive patients, diagnosed with a gynecological cancer submitted to para-aortic surgical staging between January 2010 and December 2018. The mean age was 52 years and the mean BMI was 27 kg/m.

Microinvasive squamous carcinoma of neovagina created with peritoneal flap (Davidov): Case report and literature review.

Carcinoma of the vagina is a rare disease, and it is even more rare when it appears in a neovagina, having its incidence and optimum treatment constantly discussed. The aim of this article was to review the cases described in the currently available literature and describe the second documented case of carcinoma in a neovagina created with peritoneal flaps, and also list the possible pathways and risk factors for its development. The case we present is a 49-year-old female who after undergoing a laparoscopic colpectomy of the upper two-thirds of the vagina, with an immediate reconstruction with peritoneal flaps by laparoscopy, at a 4 months follow up presented a focal microinvasive squamous carcinoma in the vault of the neovagina.
