Prolapsed fallopian tube to the vagina after hysterectomy a year ago: A case report.
Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol
January 2025
Objective: This case report aims to present a rare occurrence of fallopian tube prolapse into the vaginal vault following hysterectomy, underscoring the importance of recognizing this uncommon complication.
Case Report: A 45-year-old woman, with a history of hysterectomy for adenomyosis, presented with symptoms mimicking a vaginal tumor, including persistent discharge, abdominal pain, postcoital bleeding, and weight loss. Imaging raised concerns of malignancy, but surgery revealed a prolapsed fallopian tube with chronic inflammation.
Article Synopsis
- Soft-matter photonic crystals, specifically blue-phase liquid crystals (BPLCs), show promise for various photonic and biochemical applications but face challenges in creating large monocrystalline structures.
- Traditional methods take hours for crystal growth and often fail to align molecules effectively post-crystallization.
- This research introduces a new approach where applying an electric field allows for quick formation of large-area monocrystalline BPLCs in minutes, leading to diverse crystal symmetries and stable structures that enhance their potential uses.
Blue phase liquid crystals (BPLCs) are chiral mesophases with 3D order, which makes them a promising template for doping nanoparticles (NPs), yielding tunable nanomaterials attractive for microlasers and numerous microsensor applications. However, doping NPs to BPLCs causes BP lattice extension, which translates to elongation of operating wavelengths of light reflection. Here, it is demonstrated that small (2.
