Article Synopsis
- Uterine innervation is crucial to female reproductive health and has significant implications for conditions like endometriosis; recent histological advances have revealed its complex structure and role in these disorders.
- This review summarizes current research on uterine innervation, focusing on its effects on endometriosis and associated pain, using a systematic approach to analyze relevant studies.
- The review identified 45 studies that highlighted a trend towards increased nerve fiber density in ectopic endometrial tissue, suggesting a link between this heightened innervation and the chronic pain seen in endometriosis patients.
Article Synopsis
- Pelvic gynecological surgeries often lead to complications due to damage to the autonomic nervous system, and recognizing the deep uterine vein (DUV) can help prevent this.
- A systematic literature review and anatomical studies were conducted to better understand the DUV's structure and role in surgical settings, utilizing cadaver dissections and advanced imaging techniques.
- The research confirmed the DUV's importance in dividing uterine regions and assisting surgeons in navigating the subperitoneal anatomy to reduce the risk of nerve and ureter injuries during procedures.
Introduction: Despite awareness of obstetricians to the constant increase in the number of cesarean sections in recent years, the fear of a uterine scar rupture is still present and influences the choice of the mode of delivery in patients with two previous cesarean sections. However, several clinical studies have suggested that, under certain conditions, vaginal birth after two cesarean sections is usually successful and safe.
Objective: The objective of this study was to compare maternal and neonatal issues according to the planned mode of delivery in patients with two previous cesarean sections.
