Congenital ovarian anomaly manifesting as extra tissue connection between the two ovaries: A case report.

Background: Ovarian anomalies except for uni- or bilateral streak gonads are rare. We present a rare case of an ovarian anomaly in which both ovaries were connected by extra tissue.

Case Summary: A 32-year-old, primipara with a twin pregnancy at 36 weeks of gestation was admitted to the hospital with severe preeclampsia.

Corrective surgery using a gridiron incision for abdominal pain caused by a folded ovary in the third trimester of pregnancy.

Introduction: Sonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be helpful to obtain an accurate diagnosis of acute abdominal pain in pregnancy. Adnexal torsion presenting in the first or second trimester can be confirmed and treated through laparoscopic surgery; however laparoscopic surgery in the third trimester can be difficult owing to the large uterus, and a gridiron incision can be useful.

Case Report/case Presentation: An 18-year-old gravida 1, para 0 (G1P0) woman at 30 + 4 weeks of gestation presented with sudden-onset cyclic pain in the right lower quadrant.

Two-Step Office-Based Hysteroscopic Operation for Submucosal Myoma.

Background And Objectives: In the past, diagnostic hys- teroscopy was used to diagnose an intrauterine mass or abnormality and surgical hysteroscopy was used to treat a uterine polyp, uterine synechia, uterine septum, and submucosal myoma. The old hysteroscope had large diameters. Thus, general anesthesia was needed for inpatient management.

Placenta Percreta-Induced Uterine Rupture at 7th Week of Pregnancy After In Vitro Fertilization in a Primigravida Woman: Case Report.

Background: Placenta percreta is the most severe form of abnormal placental attachment. Spontaneous uterine rupture due to placenta percreta is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose in the first trimester. Most prior cases were associated with some risk factor for placenta percreta.

Maternal c-reactive protein and oxidative stress markers as predictors of delivery latency in patients experiencing preterm premature rupture of membranes.

Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of maternal serum c-reactive protein (CRP), lipid peroxide, and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), to predict the interval between membrane rupture and delivery in patients with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM).

Methods: The present prospective study included patients with singleton pregnancies experiencing PPROM at earlier than 34 weeks of pregnancy who underwent spontaneous vaginal delivery between August 1, 2010 and July 31, 2013 at Chonnam National University Hospital, Republic of Korea. Patients were categorized based on whether delivery occurred within 3 days of PPROM or after.

The prognostic value of squamous cell carcinoma antigen for predicting tumor recurrence in cervical squamous cell carcinoma patients.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) and the optimal cut-off value for predicting recurrence in cervical squamous cell carcinoma patients with complete remission after primary treatment.

Methods: We reviewed the records of 783 cervical squamous cell cancer patients who underwent primary therapy and showed complete remission at our institution between January 2000 and April 2014. A receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal SCC-Ag threshold to predict recurrence.
