An eight-year analysis of robotic surgery in morbidly obese women with endometrial cancer in a tertiary center in Singapore.

Introduction: Surgical management of endometrial cancer is a total hysterectomy, bilateral salphingo-oophorectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection (THBSO-PLND), which is a challenging surgery in the morbidly obese. Data on morbidly obese women undergoing robotic surgery is limited in Asia. We share our experience in Singapore and aim to demonstrate that robotic surgery is safe and effective in morbidly obese women with endometrial cancer.

Seminal biomarkers and their correlations to semen parameters in subfertile men.

Research Question: To assess the levels of seminal biomarkers fructose, zinc and citrate and their correlations to semen parameters in infertile men.

Design: 200 infertile male participants undergoing fertility assessment at Singapore General Hospital (SGH), Singapore were recruited prospectively, from June 2020 to August 2021. Their semen samples were assessed for seminal parameters, biomarker levels of fructose, citrate and zinc, leukocyte concentrations and aerobic cultures.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm in a child with tuberous sclerosis.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm is rare in the pediatric population and even more uncommon in association with tuberous sclerosis. We have presented a unique case of a 3-year, 8-month-old girl who was successfully treated. She was admitted because of breakthrough seizures.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in post-traumatic brain injury: A systematic review of diagnosis and management.

Objective: Myocardial dysfunction is a known complication in patients who experience severe stressful events, such as traumatic brain injuries (TBI). One common manifestation is Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (TC) which can appear concomitantly in patients with haemorrhagic brain injuries. There is often a management dilemma when two conditions with conflicting treatment regimens arise in the same individual.
