How do women with Rokitansky syndrome and healthcare professionals reflect on the provision of uterine transplantation? Insights from an interview study in France, Norway, and Sweden.

Introduction: Uterine transplantation is currently intended for women with absolute uterine infertility. Since proof of the concept in 2014, many countries have started research programs and clinical activities. However, access to uterine transplantation remains limited given that only a few hundred transplants have been described worldwide compared with the 1.

Uterine Transplant Optimization From a Preclinical Donor Model With Controlled Cardiocirculatory Arrest.

Background: Uterus transplantation from deceased donors offers a promising solution to the organ shortage, but optimal preservation methods are crucial for successful outcomes. Our primary objective is to conduct an initial assessment of the contribution of oxygenated hypothermic perfusion in uterine transplantation.

Methods: We performed a preclinical study on a porcine model of controlled donation after circulatory death (60 min warm ischemia).

Ovarian carcinoma in patients aged ≥80 years: A retrospective multicenter study of management and survival in the FRANCOGYN population.

Introduction: The aims of this study were to describe survival outcomes in patients with ovarian cancer aged ≥80 years and to explore predictors of poor prognosis.

Methods: We collected clinical, demographic, histologic, surgical and follow-up data for patients with ovarian cancer aged ≥80 years from a multicenter French cohort (FRANCOGYN) who underwent surgery from 1999 to 2019. Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS).

Results of combined all-arthroscopic Latarjet with Hill-Sachs remplissage for significant bipolar glenohumeral bone loss.

Background: Arthroscopic Latarjet using suture-button fixation has shown good clinical results and low recurrent instability in patients with significant glenoid bone loss. However, the presence of an associated Hill-Sachs lesion (HSL) is a risk factor for recurrent instability after isolated Latarjet. The aim of the study was to report clinical and radiologic results following all-arthroscopic Latarjet combined with Hill-Sachs remplissage (HSR).

Clues to revising the conventional diagnostic algorithm for endometriosis.

Endometriosis is a complex gynecologic disorder characterized primarily by symptoms of pelvic pain, infertility, and altered quality of life. National and international guidelines highlight the diagnostic difficulties and lack of conclusive diagnostic tools for endometriosis. Furthermore, guidelines are becoming questionable at an increasingly rapid rate as new diagnostic techniques emerge.

Hysteroscopic metroplasty: Ultrasound parameters to optimize fertility benefits?

Introduction: Metroplasty is a procedure used by some teams to correct certain uterine anomalies to improve fertility outcomes. Our goal was to evaluate hysteroscopic metroplasty in the management of nulliparous and infertile patients with a uterine anomalies.

Material And Methods: We conducted a single-center, retrospective, observational study of women who underwent hysteroscopic metroplasty for infertility between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019.

Impact of age on tumor size in vulvar cancer: A multicenter study by the Francogyn group.

Objective: Vulvar cancer is a rare pathology affecting mainly elderly women. This study aims to evaluate the impact of age on tumor size in vulvar cancer.

Material And Methods: This was a multicenter retrospective observational study carried out between January 1, 1998, and December 31, 2020, in patients operated on for vulvar cancer.

Validation of a Salivary miRNA Signature of Endometriosis - Interim Data.

BACKGROUND: The discovery of a saliva-based micro–ribonucleic acid (miRNA) signature for endometriosis in 2022 opened up new perspectives for early and noninvasive diagnosis of the disease. The 109-miRNA saliva signature is the product of miRNA biomarkers and artificial intelligence (AI) modeling. We designed a multicenter study to provide external validation of its diagnostic accuracy.

[How could physical activity decrease the risk of breast cancer development and recurrence?].

Objectives: Breast cancer is the most frequent and deadly cancer among women. In France, 50% of adults are currently overweight, mostly as a result of a sedentary lifestyle. Numerous studies have highlighted overweight, obesity and lack of physical activity as risk factors for the occurrence and prognosis of cancers, particularly breast cancer.

Total shoulder arthroplasty for primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis: does posterior humeral subluxation persist after correction of the glenoid version at 5 years minimum?

Background: Primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis is associated with both excessive posterior humeral subluxation (PHS) and excessive glenoid retroversion in 40% of cases. These morphometric abnormalities are a particular issue because they may be responsible for a deterioration in long-term clinical and radiologic outcomes. The aim of this study was to perform a computed tomographic (CT) analysis of patients who underwent total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) for primary osteoarthritis (OA) with B2-, B3-, or C-type glenoids in whom an attempt was made to correct for excessive glenoid retroversion and excessive posterior humeral subluxation intraoperatively.

Effects of virtual reality on pain during intrauterine device insertions: A randomized controlled trial.

Objectives: The trial aimed to compare the pain perceived by women during intrauterine device (IUD) insertion, with or without virtual reality (VR) therapy. Furthermore, anxiety during the insertions, pain after the insertions, and satisfaction with the insertions were compared.

Methods: The trial was designed as a prospective, bi-centric, randomized, open-label interventional trial.

Estimation of the prevalence of uterine infertility and its different causes in France according to data from a literature review.

Introduction: Uterine infertility (UI) is defined as the complete absence of a uterus (absolute uterine infertility or AUI) or the presence of a non functional uterus (non-absolute uterine infertility or NAUI). The exact prevalence of uterine infertility is currently unknown. Our aim was to assess the number of French women concerned by Uterine Infertility according to a recent literature review.

[FRANCOGYN group: A brief history].

Objectives: Describing the constitution of the FRANCOGYN group (a national French research group in Oncological and Gynecological Surgery) and present its current and future development.

Methods: Literature review using PUBMed database with the keyword "FRANCOGYN".

Objectives: Describing the constitution of the FRANCOGYN group (a national French research group in Oncological and Gynecological Surgery) and present its current and future development.

Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome patients' interest, expectations and demands concerning uterus transplantation.

Objective: To better understand patients' conditions and expectations before starting a uterus transplantation (UTx) program for women suffering from Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome (MRKH syndrome).

Method: A web-based survey was conducted among MRKH patients via the French national association network from March to August 2020. The questionnaire comprised twenty-eight questions about their desire for parenthood, their condition's characteristics and previous reconstructive procedures, opinions and knowledge about UTx.
