When treating anterior and apical prolapse, laparoscopic sacral colpopexy is the gold standard. Currently, it is suggested that the anterior mesh must be the lowest possible to better treat the prolapse and lower the risk of recurrence. The objective of our study was to determine the possibility of using intraoperative transperineal ultrasound measurements during laparoscopic sacral colpopexy in order to better localize the mesh positioning.

The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) and then the National Cancer Institute (INCa) have reported conflicting results regarding the impact of post-diagnosis PA on breast cancer outcomes. The aim of this systematic review is to assess the association between PA after breast cancer diagnosis and overall mortality, specific mortality and risk of breast cancer recurrence in the literature.

Article Synopsis
- Vitamin D insufficiency is common among pregnant women, potentially leading to complications during pregnancy and negative birth outcomes.
- The FEPED study analyzed 3,129 pregnant women in France and Belgium to evaluate the impact of maternal vitamin D levels during the first trimester on risks of preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, preterm birth, and small-for-gestational-age births.
- Results indicated that higher vitamin D levels in the third trimester were linked to a reduced risk of preeclampsia, while no significant relationships were found for gestational diabetes, preterm birth, or small-for-gestational-age outcomes, suggesting a need for further research on vitamin D's effects on pregnancy.
Article Synopsis
- Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) poses significant risks during pregnancy and can lead to long-term health issues for both mothers and children, prompting investigations into factors like vitamin D levels.
- This nested case-control study involved 1,191 pregnant women, comparing those with GDM to those without, in relation to their 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels during the first trimester.
- Results indicated that low 25OHD levels (<20 ng/mL) were linked to an increased GDM risk, but no clear linear relationship was found, suggesting that the risk varied with different vitamin D levels rather than consistently decreasing as vitamin D increased.
Breast cancer affects about 3,000 new women of childbearing age each year. The desire for pregnancy is therefore a frequent issue in the management of breast cancer. We reviewed the current state of knowledge and recommendations in high-risk women, on the consideration of this desire for pregnancy in therapeutic management, the way to approach it, the preservation of fertility in the care process and finally on the outcomes of pregnancy after breast cancer.

J Gynecol Obstet Hum Reprod
April 2018
Trichomonas vaginalis is a very common, sexually transmitted, infection that may sometimes be asymptomatic or cause vaginitis and urethritis. Recently, it has been associated with adverse obstetric outcomes such as preterm delivery, low birth weight and premature rupture of membranes. Trichomonas vaginalis can be vertically transmitted at birth.

We set out to compare the performance and efficiency of the device in terms of operative lens vision quality (OLVQ) with the reference technique (water + povidone-iodine (PVI) solution) during gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a single-center randomized prospective study between March and June 2016 (Trials Database Registration NCT02702531) including 53 patients undergoing gynecologic laparoscopic surgery with water + PVI solution and 51 patients who underwent surgical procedures with the FloShield Air System.
Introduction: The aim of our study was to compare the stage and severity of endometriosis in fertile and infertile women with congenital uterine malformations.
Material And Methods: We performed an observational study from September 2007 to December 2015 in a tertiary care university hospital and assisted reproductive technology center. A total of 52 patients with surgically proven uterine malformations were included.
