Introduction And Purpose: The present study aims to compare the effectiveness and perioperative results of the natural tissue repair-based treatments sacrospinous fixation (SSF) and uterosacral ligament suspension (USLS) based on the preoperative Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification system (POP-Q).
Materials And Methods: Medical records of patients with stage ≥2 uterine prolapse between January 2011 and December 2016 were retrospectively examined. Preoperative POP-Q stages, demographic characteristics, perioperative results, and recurrence ratios in mid-term follow-up for patients were compared.
Background: Endometriosis is a pelvic inflammatory process, and hormonal, environmental, and genetic factors play a role in its etiopathogenesis; especially, deep pelvic endometriosis exhibits an extensive anatomical distribution. In the present study, we evaluated the contribution of routinely measured hematological parameters to the diagnosis as the number of endometriotic nodule localization increases, when evaluated with C-reactive protein (CRP) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 125.
Methods: The present study included patients with histopathologically confirmed diagnosis of endometriosis who underwent surgery at our hospital between January 2007 and December 2018.

Objective: It's proposed that oligohydramnios is caused by decreased renal perfusion due to redistribution of fetal blood at fetal growth restriction. Isolated oligohydramnios refers to the presence of oligohydramnios without fetal structural and chromosomal abnormalities, without fetal growth restriction, without intrauterine infection, and in the absence of known maternal disease. It's unknown whether the redistribution or decreased renal perfusion cause isolated oligohydramnios.

A pregnant patient (39 weeks) underwent a mediolateral episiotomy during a vaginal delivery. An afterbirth hematoma (approximately 20 cm in diameter) was evacuated, but the use of a vacuum-assisted wound closure system was applied after the sutures opened on the 7th postoperative day.

Introduction: The fertility rate is 0.25% for 15-19-year-old girls and 16% for 19-year-old girls who are mothers or pregnant with their first child. Fifty-two percent of married adolescents did not have affective contraception.

We report a case with congenital Ewing's sarcoma that easily interfered with rabdomyosarcoma in a pregnant woman. A 32-year-old multigravida with a big neck mass at 35 weeks was referred to our clinic.

Material And Methods: This retrospective study included a total of 1,506 patients who underwent multiple CDs between January 2006 and May 2014. The patients were divided into two groups.

Background: Single and triple uterine tourniquet significantly reduces blood loss during myomectomy and both are highly effective. Triple tourniquet, however, blocks ovarian circulation and there is doubt that it causes ischemic damage to ovaries. These 2 methods have not been compared by a randomised controlled study yet.

Materials And Methods: Animals were divided into four groups; control group with induced ischemia-reperfusion (IRC), ischemia-reperfusion +100 mg/kg metamizole sodium (MS) (IRM-100), ischemia-reperfusion +200 mg/kg MS (IRM-200), and healthy group applied sham operation (SG).
Results: Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and gene expression increased significantly in IRC and IRM-100 group rat ovarian tissue compared with the SG group (P < 0.
Angiomyofibroblastoma is a rare, benign and recently defined soft tissue tumor. It generally arises from superficial soft tissues, especially from mesenchymal cells in the subepithelial myxoid stromal zone of the vulvovaginal region. The tumor is usually positive for estrogen and progesterone receptor.

Isolated mesenteric venous thrombosis may be encountered in young women who have underlying hypercoagulable disease. We report a case of mesenteric venous thrombosis in a young pregnant woman in whom protein S deficiency was diagnosed at a later stage.

Method Of Study: A total of 69 consecutive cases, 38 mild pre-eclampsia, 20 severe pre-eclampsia, 11 eclampsia, and 20 normotensive controls were included in this study. Serum IL-2, IL-6, and IL-10 levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method.
