Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of suture closure of the subcutaneous tissue in preventing wound complications after cesarean section with a Pfannenstiel incision, and to investigate factors associated with wound complications.
Material And Methods: Patients undergoing cesarean delivery were randomly assigned to either suture closure or non-closure of the subcutaneous tissue. The participants were invited to two follow-up examinations at the 1st and 4th postoperative weeks for the detection of wound complications.
Objective: The objective of this study is to describe a novel technique for the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage and evaluate its effectiveness and safety.
Methods: Single square hemostatic suture was performed for uterine atony when postpartum hemorrhage did not respond to medical therapy and bilateral uterine artery ligation. We retrospectively reviewed the data of 11 women and evaluated their endometrial cavity with hydrosonography after a follow-up period of 8-34 months.
Aim: To examine the influence of obesity on the patient characteristics and clinicopathologic features of endometrial cancer, and to find how treatment and prognosis were affected by obesity in women with endometrial cancer.
Methods: The data of 370 consecutive women operated for endometrial cancer were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were divided into three categories as <25, 25-29.
Objective: We wished to determine the relationship between preoperative serum CA 125 levels and the risk of metastatic disease, recurrent disease, and death in women with endometrial cancer.
Methods: We reviewed the records of women with endometrial adenocarcinoma of all stages who underwent primary surgery. We abstracted multiple data variables, including demographic characteristics, serum CA 125 levels, postoperative histopathology results, progression-free survival, and overall survival rates.
