A large post-caesarean Niche (Isthmocele) with amenorrhea, a symptom that was not reported in the medical literature: A rare case report.

Introduction And Importance: Isthmocele is identified as an iatrogenic defect in the myometrium of the anterior uterine wall at the site of a previous cesarean scar due to defective tissue healing. Patients may have varied symptoms including abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) and pelvic pain. Herein, we report a rare case of a large isthmocele that manifested with secondary amenorrhea; which was not reported in the medical literature previously.

Successful management of a recurrent 180° uterine torsion: a rare case report.

Uterine torsion (UT) is one of the most uncommon obstetric complications. It usually occurs in the third trimester. The confirmed diagnosis relies on > 45° rotation at the utero-cervical junction around its longitudinal axis.

Assessment of the efficacy of thymol against in experimentally infected rats.

The effect of thymol and ivermectin on the development and embryonation of () eggs, as well as their migration in albino rats was investigated both in vitro and in vivo. A total of forty male albino rats were divided into four groups for an in vivo experiment. The first group was uninfected; the second group was infected but left untreated; the third group was infected and received thymol at a dose of 40 mg/kg; and the fourth group was infected and received ivermectin (0.

Cost-effectiveness of six months versus 1-year adjuvant trastuzumab in HER2 positive early breast cancer in Egypt.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer among women in Egypt. Trastuzumab is administered with chemotherapy for patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer (HER2 + ve ABC) in the metastatic and adjuvant settings resulting in improved treatment outcomes, and long-term follow-up. Some studies have evaluated whether equivalent outcomes can be achieved with reduced treatment duration.

Dataset of breast ultrasound images.

Breast cancer is one of the most common causes of death among women worldwide. Early detection helps in reducing the number of early deaths. The data presented in this article reviews the medical images of breast cancer using ultrasound scan.

Transvenous Lead Extraction of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices Indications, Complications and Outcome: An Egyptian Two Years' Experience.

Background: The growing needs to extract cardiovascular implantable electronic devices warrants the need to improve the outcome and prevent complications.

Aim: This study aims to analyse the findings and identify factors associated with complications of Percutaneous Transvenous Lead Extraction in the Critical Care Department, Cairo University.

Methods: We studied 52 candidates for Percutaneous Transvenous Lead extraction of a Permanent Pace Maker (PPM) regarding extraction indications, comorbidities, device type, complications and outcome.

Effect of mesenchymal stem cells and a novel curcumin derivative on Notch1 signaling in hepatoma cell line.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and a novel curcumin derivative (NCD) on HepG2 cells (hepatoma cell line) and to investigate their effect on Notch1 signaling pathway target genes. HepG2 cells were divided into HepG2 control group, HepG2 cells treated with MSC conditioned medium (MSCs CM), HepG2 cells treated with a NCD, HepG2 cells treated with MSCs CM and NCD, and HepG2 cells treated with MSCs CM (CM of MSCs pretreated with a NCD). Expression of Notch1, Hes1, VEGF, and cyclin D1 was assessed by real-time, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in HepG2 cells.

Recurrent supraventricular tachycardias prevalence and pathophysiology after RF ablation: A 5-year registry.

Background: The introduction of technique of radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation in 1990, has revolutionized management of different types of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). In spite of higher success rate, there were reported recurrences among different types of SVT. The aim of this study was to report the efficacy of RF ablation, its complications, recurrence rate and its predictors.

Hepatitis C Virus and related changes in immunological parameters in non Hodgkin's lymphoma patients.

Viral hepatitis is a common and important problem in immunocompromised cancer patients. The present study was conducted to investigate changes in some cellular and humoral immunological parameters as a consequence of HCV infection in non Hodgkin's lymphoma patients (NHL). The study included 40 NHL patients: 20 anti-HCV antibody positive (Gr.
