Article Synopsis
- Primary tumors of the lacrimal sac (PTLS) are a rare and serious type of eye tumors that can be dangerous.* -
- In a study of three patients, doctors found tumors in their lacrimal sacs, and tests showed the presence of human papilloma virus (HPV) in some cases.* -
- Doctors need to be careful about symptoms related to the tear duct and should use special scans if the first treatments don’t work.*
Objective: This study aimed to establish the first-ever MRI classification of uterosacral ligament (USL) involvement in deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), based on reliable preoperative MRI features correlated with positive predictive values (PPVs) determined through histopathological analysis.
Methods: Twenty-two women underwent surgery with histopathology due to symptoms highly suggestive of endometriosis. The 22 preoperative MRIs were analysed retrospectively, blinded to histopathology, and a classification of the preoperative aspect of USLs linked to PPVs was designed.
Study Question: Do severe endometriosis-related painful symptoms impact ART live birth rates?
Summary Answer: Severe pain symptoms are not associated with reduced ART live birth rates in endometriosis patients.
What Is Known Already: ART is currently recognized as one of the main therapeutic options to manage endometriosis-related infertility. Presently, no data exist in the literature regarding the association between the core symptom of the disease, e.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the success rates of fresh embryo transfers (ET) versus freeze-all strategies in infertile women with adenomyosis undergoing assisted reproductive technologies (ART).
- Conducted at a university hospital, the observational study included 306 women, with a notable difference in live birth rates: 44.1% in the freeze-all group compared to 30.6% in the fresh ET group.
- Conclusions indicate that the freeze-all strategy significantly increases cumulative live birth rates for women with adenomyosis, suggesting it could be a more effective option, warranting further randomized studies for validation.
Research Question: Is there a change in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) criteria of diffuse and focal phenotypes of adenomyosis before and after pregnancy?
Design: A retrospective, monocentric, observational study in a single academic tertiary referral centre for endometriosis diagnosis and management. Women were followed for symptomatic adenomyosis, and without a prior history of surgery who give birth after 24+0 weeks. For each patient, pelvic MRI pre- and post-pregnancy was performed by two experienced radiologists with the same image acquisition protocol.
