Using complaints from obstetric care for improving women's birth experiences - a cross sectional study.

Introduction: Staff shortages and quality in obstetric care is a concern in most healthcare systems and a hot topic in the public debate that has centred on complaints about deficient care. However there has been a lack of empirical data to back the debate. The aim of this study was to analyse and describe complaints in obstetric care.

Clinical performance and acceptability of self-collected vaginal and urine samples compared with clinician-taken cervical samples for HPV testing among women referred for colposcopy. A cross-sectional study.

Objectives: To increase effectiveness of the cervical cancer screening program, self-sampling can be an option. Both self-collected vaginal samples (SCV) and urine samples may be useful alternatives to clinician-taken cervical samples (CS).

Design: Cross-sectional study.

[Acquired clitoral phimosis causing a periclitoral pseudocyst].

Clitoral phimosis or preputial fusion may occur as a result of atrophic vaginitis among other conditions. A 72-year-old woman presented with atrophic vaginitis, preputial fusion, and a painful periclitorial pseudocyst. We suggest that a minimal surgery approach in a manual retraction of the synarchies without making an incision is a gentle and effective surgical management of preputial fusion.

The Size of Labia Minora and Perception of Genital Appearance: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Objectives: The aims of the study were to describe and to assess the size of labia minora in normal women, including the women's perception of their genitals to offer better counseling to the women seeking for labiaplasty.

Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study was undertaken in the outpatient clinic at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Kolding Medical Center between May 2012 and October 2013, when study participants were recruited in connection with their routine visits. Main outcomes of interest were visibility and width of the patients' labia minora.

Post-coital genital injury in healthy women: A review.

Female genital injury following penile sexual intercourse in healthy women is a matter of importance and debate in many parts of society. However, the literature on the subject is sparse. There are a few studies regarding minor injury that does not require treatment in adult, pre-menopausal women, a single study of adolescent women, and none regarding post-menopausal women.

[Perivascular epithelioid cell tumours of the uterus].

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumours (PEComas) are rare tumours with unknown malignant potential. We report a case of a 48-year-old woman, who had had many tumours, initially diagnosed as leiomyomas, removed from her uterus and vagina over 16 years. A recurrent tumour and revision of prior specimens revealed PEComa.
