Incidence and risk factors of silent deep venous thromboembolism before interval debulking surgery in ovarian cancer patients, a tertiary centre experience.

Objective: To determine the prevalence and risk factors for the development of asymptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) in ovarian cancer patients who underwent interval cytoreductive surgery after finishing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Methods: This is a prospective observational trial. Female patients with pathologically proven ovarian cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy without clinical evidence of VTE were included.

Isolated left axillary nodal metastasis from endometrial carcinosarcoma: A case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Non-mammary metastases to the breast and axilla are rare instances, and isolated axillary lymph node metastases are especially rare. We present a rare case of left axillary lymph node metastasis from a primary endometrial carcinosarcoma.

Case Presentation: We report a case of a 73-year-old woman who presented with a left breast tail palpable mass.

Management of borderline ovarian tumors: A tertiary referral center experience in Egypt.

Background: In this retrospective study, we discuss our experience as a large tertiary referral center in Egypt in the management and follow-up of borderline tumors.

Patients And Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study where all patients diagnosed with a borderline ovarian tumor at Oncology Center Mansoura University from November 2014 to June 2020 were included. Demographics, preoperative, operative, postoperative, pathologic, and oncologic follow-up data were retrieved from a prospectively maintained electronic database.

Use of Thoracodorsal Artery Perforator (Tdap) Flap to Cover a Laparoscopically Harvested Omental Flap After Modified Radical Mastectomy; a Case Report.

Omental flap was introduced for breast reconstruction after mastectomy either alone or as an adjunct to prosthetic reconstruction. Laparoscopically harvested omental flap was used successfully for this issue. Most of reports had described its use after partial mastectomy, skin or nipple areola sparing mastectomies.

Primary desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor of the ovary.

Background: Desmoplastic small-round-cell tumor (DSRCT) is an extremely rare and highly aggressive malignancy. It is of yet unclear origin, but it is assumed to be of a mesothelial origin based on its tendency for widespread metastasis in serosal linings.

Case Presentation: In this report, we describe a young female who presented with bilateral ovarian masses that mimicked the classic clinical picture of ovarian cancer.

Pressure-Controlled Ventilation with Volume Guarantee Compared to Volume-Controlled Ventilation with Equal Ratio in Obese Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Hysterectomy.

Background: Laparoscopic hysterectomy operations especially for obese patients necessitate Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum with carbon dioxide, which could affect cardiac and pulmonary functions. The present study aimed to compare the impact of pressure-controlled ventilation with volume-guaranteed (PCV-VG) and volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) with equal ratio ventilation (ERV), i.e.

Feasibility of early postoperative bladder catheter removal without prior bladder-training exercises after laparoscopic nerve sparing radical hysterectomy.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of early postoperative bladder catheter removal without prior bladder-training exercises after laparoscopic nerve sparing radical hysterectomy (LNSRH). The post-operative bladder catheterisation period of 30 patients who underwent LNSRH at two institutes in Egypt and Italy were prospectively evaluated with postoperative drainage of the bladder through a Foley catheter for two days without performing bladder-training exercise. The median duration for postoperative bladder catheterisation was 3.

The role of robotic aortic lymphadenectomy in gynecological cancer: surgical and oncological outcome in a single institution experience.

Background And Objective: This study aims to investigate the surgical outcomes observed in robotic transperitoneal aortic lymphadenectomy (AL) in gynecological cancer patients.

Methods: Retrospective data were collected and analyzed on 71 patients undergoing robotic surgical procedures for gynecological cancers, including transperitoneal AL, between December 2014 and February 2018 at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart, Rome, Italy.

Results: Median age of the sample population was 50 years (range, 26-76 years).
