Reducing dehydration-induced readmissions post-colorectal surgery: the impact of a prevention bundle.

Introduction: Ileostomy, frequently created after colorectal resections, hinders the physiologic function of the colon and can lead to dehydration and acute kidney injury due to high stoma outputs. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of preventive measures on ileostomy-induced dehydration and related readmissions in a high-volume unit.

Methods: In this prospective cohort study at a high-volume colorectal surgery department in Turkiye, the Prospective Ileostomy-induced Dehydration Prevention Bundle Project (PIDBP) was assessed from March 2021 to March 2022.

A randomized prospective comparison of the needleless mini-sling "hammock" and "U-shape" configurations for management of stress urinary incontinence: 60-month follow-up results.

Objective: To compare needleless mini-slings placed in a retropubic (U-shape) or trans-obturator (hammock-shape) configuration for treating stress urinary incontinence at 60th month.

Methods: All surgeries, conducted by a senior surgeon, involved objective and subjective assessments preoperatively and at 6, 12, 18, and 60 months postoperatively using cough-stress tests, ICIQ-SF, PGI-I, and a Likert scale.

Results: After 60 months, no significant differences were found in cure rates, mesh complications, or reinterventions between U-shaped and hammock-shaped groups.

A randomized, prospective, controlled study comparing uterine preserving laparoscopic lateral suspension with mesh versus laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy in the treatment of uterine prolapse.

Objectives: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) significantly affects women's quality of life, occurring in 20-30% of females aged over 20 globally. With aging populations, demand for pelvic reconstructive surgery is rising. Patients seek anatomical restoration while preserving uterus and sexual function.

Progesterone receptor ligands for the treatment of endometriosis.

Estrogen dependence and progesterone resistance play a crucial role in the origin and development of endometriosis. Therefore, hormonal therapies are currently the most effective treatment. Progestins are considered the first-line approach, especially for a long-term management.

Vaginal-assisted Laparoscopic Sacrohysteropexy and Vaginal Hysterectomy with Vaginal Vault Suspension for Advanced Uterine Prolapse: 12-month Preliminary Results of a Randomized Controlled Study.

Objective: Vaginal-assisted laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy (VALH) is a new modified form of uterine-sparing prolapse surgery using a combined vaginal and laparoscopic approach. We aimed to compare 1 year efficacy and safety of VALH and vaginal hysterectomy with vaginal vault suspension (VH + VVS) in the surgical treatment of apical pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Materials And Methods: Women who requested surgical treatment for stage 2-4 symptomatic uterine prolapse were recommended to participate in one year-long randomized study between July 2017 and January 2019.

The impact of cryotherapy for symptomatic cervical ectropion on female sexual function and quality of life.

In rare cases, cervical ectropion causes symptoms such as abundant leucorrhoea, postcoital bleeding, recurrent cervicitis, pelvic pain, and dyspareunia. Cryotherapy is a commonly used treatment for symptomatic cervical ectropion. We assessed the impact of cryotherapy on sexual function and quality of life among patients with symptomatic cervical ectropion.

Laparoscopy-assisted suprapubic salpingectomy 'Kaya technic' - a low-cost treatment of ectopic pregnancy.

We aimed to demonstrate the feasibility and total cost of laparoscopy-assisted suprapubic salpingectomy (LASS), which utilises conventional open surgery equipment without any sealing or coagulation devices and reduces port sites compared to conventional laparoscopy (CL). Fifty-seven consecutive, age-matched patients presenting with a tubal pregnancy were enrolled. In the LASS group, a 10 mm reusable umbilical optical trocar and a 10 mm suprapubic trocar was used.

The effectiveness of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio in prediction of medical treatment failure for tubo-ovarian abscess.

Aim: We aimed to compare the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA) patients who responded to medical treatment or who underwent surgical intervention due to medical treatment failure.

Methods: The files of the patients, hospitalized in our Obstetrics and Gynecology Department with TOA diagnosis between August 2015 and December 2017, were evaluated retrospectively. The conservative management group was comprised of 38 of the 81 patients (46.
