Salpingectomie bilatérale aux fins de contraception permanente : série de cas et facteurs limitant le changement de pratique.

Objective: The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC) and the Society of Gynaecologic Oncology of Canada (GOC) recommend complete removal of the fallopian tubes as a permanent contraceptive method because of its association with a reduced risk of ovarian cancer. Currently, many women are not offered bilateral salpingectomy as an alternative to tubal ligation for permanent contraception.

Method: As part of a quality improvement initiative, we reviewed all cases of sterilization performed at our university centre between 1 January and 31 December 2018.

Case Presentation: A 78-year-old woman presented with hematochezia and a colonoscopy revealed a metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma rectal polyp biopsy-proven. Abdominal computed tomography identified a 9.

Neuroprotective effects of antenatal magnesium sulfate under inflammatory conditions in a Sprague-Dawley pregnant rat model.

Objective: Antenatal magnesium sulfate (MgSO) is recommended for fetal neuroprotection. The aim of this animal study was to assess the neuroprotective effect of in utero exposure to MgSO, under inflammatory conditions.

Methods: Timed pregnant Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (n = 29) received four intra-peritoneal (IP) injections of lipopolysaccharides (LPS; 200 μg/kg), combined with increasing concentrations of MgSO (25, 50 or 100 mg/kg, n = 19) or saline solution (SS; n = 10).

Ten Challenges in Contraception.

Despite the introduction of promising products into the contraceptive market, the rate of unintended pregnancies remains high.
