Comparison of salpingectomy and tubal detorsion procedures after experimental ischemia-reperfusion injury in a rat fallopian tube model: biochemical and histopathological evaluation.
F S Sci
May 2024
Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to compare the effects of salpingectomy and detorsion on fallopian tubes in rats, focusing on biochemical and histopathological changes caused by induced torsion.
- Twenty-seven reproductive-period Sprague-Dawley rats underwent varying degrees of fallopian tube ischemia and reperfusion, with different groups receiving salpingectomy and varying recovery periods.
- Results showed significant differences in tissue antioxidant levels and oxidative stress markers, indicating damage in the acute phase but some recovery in long-term reperfusion, especially in the histopathological evaluation of the most extended recovery group.
Pre-delivery fibrinogen level is a predictor for severity of placental abruption.
Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol X
December 2023
Objective: To determine pre-delivery fibrinogen levels in predicting adverse maternal or neonatal outcomes in patients with placental abruption.
Materials And Method: We conducted a retrospective study of all women admitted for placental abruption between January 2012 and May 2018. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), massive blood transfusion and hospitalization in intensive care unit parameters were evaluated for maternal outcomes.
Purpose: To give a report on the experience of our tertiary perinatology clinic on the pre- and postnatal management of the right aortic arch (RAA) by evaluating the patients as isolated and non-isolated RAA.
Materials And Methods: Patients referred to our perinatology clinic for fetal echocardiography were evaluated retrospectively. They were assessed in two groups: isolated RAA and non-isolated RAA.
Use of video-based multimedia information to reduce anxiety before office hysteroscopy.

Article Synopsis
- - Multimedia tools, like videos, can improve patient understanding, lower anxiety, and boost satisfaction in surgical contexts, particularly for women preparing for office hysteroscopy.
- - In a study, women given video-based information experienced significantly reduced anxiety levels compared to those who received written information, as measured by the State and Trait Anxiety Inventory.
- - Patients who received video information reported higher satisfaction rates after the procedure, suggesting that video-based information might be more effective than traditional methods for easing patient concerns.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the maternal and neonatal outcomes of patients who underwent intrauterine transfusion (IUT) for foetal anaemia due to red blood cell alloimmunisation and to determine the factors that affected the outcomes. All pregnancies that were treated with IUT due to Rh immunisation between January 2015 and June 2018 in the Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Training and Research Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, were evaluated retrospectively. IUT due to non-Rh alloimmunisation, parvovirus B19 infection, chronic fetomaternal haemorrhage and foetal anaemia due to homozygous alpha-thalassemia were not included in the study.

- Chorioamnionitis is a serious complication in pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), and procalcitonin (proCT) is being assessed as a potential predictor for this condition.
- A study involving 76 pregnant women with PPROM monitored their proCT, white blood cell (WBC), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels throughout their hospitalization.
- Results revealed that while 19.73% of participants developed chorioamnionitis, proCT levels did not significantly differ between those who did and did not, suggesting more research is needed to clarify its predictive value.
Background: The number of hysterectomized patients with previous cesarean sections (CSs) has increased due to increasing CS rates. A previous history of CS has been demonstrated to be an important risk factor for major complications in total laparoscopic hysterectomy. The aim here was to evaluate the major complications and safety of TLH in patients with previous CS.

Our purpose is to measure serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels and ovarian volume in patients who had internal iliac artery ligation (IIAL) and/or IIAL plus hysterectomy due to uterine atony.
Methods: Patients who underwent IIAL and IIAL+ hysterectomy were evaluated 6 months after their operations and were compared with the control group.
Comparing success rates of the Hayman compression suture and the Bakri balloon tamponade.
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med
September 2019
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality around the world. Medical treatments and uterus-sparing interventions including balloon tamponades and compression sutures are the first line options before the decision is made to perform a hysterectomy. Our aim is to compare the success rates of the Hayman compression suture and the Bakri balloon tamponade (BBT) in patients with PPH.

Methods: This study was conducted as a prospective cross-sectional study between February 2015 and January 2016 in patients admitted to the labour ward of the Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital who subsequently underwent their first delivery by cesarean section. Patients with a previous history of cesarean delivery, preterm pregnancies less than 34 gestational weeks, patients lost to follow-up or those who had an IUD inserted after delivery were excluded from the study.
Aim: To establish how useful and the predictive capacity of uterocervical angles (UCA) in the termination of second trimester pregnancies.
Material And Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary center with a total of 120 singleton pregnancies delivered between 14 and 24 gestational weeks. Before the beginning of misoprostol induction, patients were screened for both cervical length (CL) and uterocervical angles (UCA).
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between non-chromosomal fetal anomalies of various organ systems and advanced maternal age.
Materials And Method: This study was conducted in 387 women aged 20-53 years who underwent fetal karyotype testing due to positive prenatal test results or advanced maternal age at the Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Training and Research Hospital between September 2011 and March 2015. Fetuses with chromosomal anomalies were excluded from the study.
