Study Objective: To evaluate the effect of removal of coexisting adenomyosis on fertility outcomes in women with rectovaginal endometriosis.
Design: A retrospective cohort study.
Setting: A general hospital.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare surgical outcomes following conventional laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH) (C-LH) versus the combination method of LH plus laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) (LH+LM) for the treatment of large uterine fibroids.
Study Design: This study was performed in 56 patients (uterine weights ≥500g) who underwent either C-LH or LH+LM performed by the same surgeon between May 2010 and May 2016. LH+LM was performed when C-LH was problematic because of poor visibility and/or mobility due to uterine fibroids.

Objective: To analyze the determinants of successful pregnancy following laparoscopic adenomyomectomy.
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Setting: A general hospital.
Objective: The aim of the present study was to differentiate and specify the subtypes of adenomyosis.
Study Design: Surgically treated adenomyosis (n = 152) was subcategorized retrospectively into 4 subtypes on the basis of magnetic resonance imaging geography. Subtype I (n = 59) consisted of adenomyosis that occurs in the uterine inner layer without affecting the outer structures.

Introduction: Several pelvic masses have been known to cause urinary retention due to a mass effect with the bladder being obstructed secondary to compression of the urethra or bladder neck.
Materials And Methods: We report the extremely rare case of endometrial carcinoma with an enlarged cystic cervix which resulted in acute urinary retention. A 92-year-old woman was referred for acute urinary retention.
