Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare maternal and neonatal outcomes between pregnant women undergoing labor induction with misoprostol versus those in spontaneous labor.
- A total of 213 women were analyzed, divided into three groups: spontaneous labor, single-dose misoprostol, and multiple-dose misoprostol, with significant differences in vaginal birth rates and average time to delivery noted.
- Results indicated that single-dose misoprostol had the best outcomes in terms of quicker delivery times and higher rates of vaginal birth within 12 hours, suggesting it is a favorable option for labor induction.
Vaginal evisceration of the small bowel is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication after hysterectomy. This complication requires prompt surgical management and methods of surgical repair include abdominal, vaginal or laparoscopic approaches. We report the first case of robotic approach for repair of vaginal evisceration and intraoperative use of near-infrared fluorescence imaging for the assessment of bowel perfusion in a 63-year-old postmenopausal woman with a history of robotic hysterectomy for cervix cancer.
