Mechanical dilatation of the stenosed cervix under local anesthesia: A prospective case series.

Aim: Cervical stenosis is traditionally managed by mechanical dilatation under general anesthesia (GA). We aimed to assess the safety, effectiveness, and patient acceptability of dilatation in the outpatient setting under local anesthesia (LA).

Methods: Data were collected prospectively from all patients attending the outpatient department with cervical stenosis from March 20, 2015 to September 23, 2020.

Extrapulmonary uterine lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and dysfunctional uterine bleeding: the first presentation of LAM in a tuberous sclerosis complex patient.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare disease that typically affects women of childbearing age. It most commonly affects the lungs (P-LAM) but can occasionally occur in extra-pulmonary sites (E-LAM). There is a strong association between LAM and the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).

Vulval and vaginal cancer in pregnancy.

Lower genital tract malignancy during pregnancy is rare. Due to the rarity of this condition, the best evidence in its management is based on case reports. The management of the lower genital tract malignancy is influenced by factors including oncological factors, maternal and foetal effect of treatment, and other religious and ethical issues in a multidisciplinary approach.

Patient-Reported Outcomes After Extensive (Ultraradical) Surgery for Ovarian Cancer: Results From a Prospective Longitudinal Feasibility Study.

Background: Extensive (ultraradical) surgery may facilitate complete cytoreduction in ovarian cancer with potential survival benefit but with greater morbidity. Currently, patient-reported outcomes (PROs) from such surgery are unknown. We conducted the Surgery in Ovarian Cancer Quality of life Evaluation Research study (SOCQER 1), a prospective study investigating the feasibility of collection of serial PROs in patients who had extensive surgery and standard surgery for ovarian cancer.
