Staging by imaging in gynecologic cancer and the role of ultrasound: an update of European joint consensus statements.

In recent years the role of diagnostic imaging by pelvic ultrasound in the diagnosis and staging of gynecological cancers has been growing exponentially. Evidence from recent prospective multicenter studies has demonstrated high accuracy for pre-operative locoregional ultrasound staging in gynecological cancers. Therefore, in many leading gynecologic oncology units, ultrasound is implemented next to pelvic MRI as the first-line imaging modality for gynecological cancer.

Deep (aggressive) angiomyxoma of the vulva in a pregnant woman.

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare mesenchymal tumour, which usually appears in the pelvic region of women in their reproductive age. Although benign, it is a locally infiltrative tumour with frequent recurrence. We report a case of a pregnant woman in her 30s with a vulvar aggressive angiomyxoma which was initially misdiagnosed.

One Year of COVID-19 in Pregnancy: A National Wide Collaborative Study.

Introduction: Even though the risk of COVID-19 in pregnancy may be increased, large-scale studies are needed to better understand the impact of the infection in this population. The aim of this study is to describe obstetric complications and the rate of vertical transmission in pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Material And Methods: Detected cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pregnancy were registered in Portuguese hospitals by obstetricians.

Giant fibroepithelial vulvar polyp in a pregnant woman.

Fibroepithelial polyps are benign lesions that may appear in the vulvovaginal region. They usually occur in women of reproductive age and tend to grow up to 5 cm, but there are some rare cases in which they grow up to 20 cm. We report a case of a 22-year-old woman in the third trimester of her first pregnancy with spontaneous bleeding from a pedunculated mass measuring 15 cm in the widest diameter on the right side of the vulva.
