Perioperative Duloxetine for Pain Management After Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: A Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Study Objective: To evaluate the effect of perioperative duloxetine on pain management in patients recovering from laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Design: A randomized placebo-controlled trial.

Setting: A university hospital.

Laparoscopic assisted robotic myomectomy of a huge myoma; Does robotic surgery change the borders in minimally invasive gynecology?

Today, the adoption of minimal invasive gynecologic procedures is expanding their routine use in clinical practice. Until recently, a diameter of 8 cm was the recommended maximal size for laparoscopic removal of fibroids. However, robot-assisted laparoscopy improved the capacity and the feasibility of the many gynecologic procedures.

Oral Mass of a Fetus Incidentally Found during Second Trimester: Ultrasound Survey and Postnatal Prognosis of the Baby.

Ultrasound (USG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used to detect and evaluate the face and neck tumors during the in-utero period. We reported and discussed an oral mass which was diagnosed incidentally at mid-trimester exam and managed successfully.

Single-port Robotic Pelvic Bulky Lymph Node Resection: A Case Report.

Study Objective: To report the feasibility of bulky pelvic lymph node resection with robotic-assisted single-port laparoscopy in a patient with cervical cancer before chemoradiation therapy.

Design: Resection of pelvic bulky lymph nodes with a narrated video of da Vinci single-port platform surgery (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA) (Canadian Task Force classification III).

Setting: Although not enough evidence exists to reveal that single-site surgery is better than traditional endoscopic surgery, several studies have suggested that single-site robotic surgery has certain advantages such as less postoperative analgesic use, shorter hospital stay, and quicker recovery.

Laparoscopic Management of Huge Myoma Nascendi.

Study Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility of laparoscopic management of a huge myoma nascendi.

Design: Step-by-step video demonstration of the surgical procedure (Canadian Task Force classification III-C).

Setting: Uterine myoma is the most common benign neoplasm of the female reproductive tract, with an estimated incidence of 25% to 30% at reproductive age [1,2].

Laparoscopic Management of Huge Cervical Myoma.

Study Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility of laparoscopic management of a huge cervical myoma.

Design: Step-by-step video demonstration of the surgical procedure (Canadian Task Force classification III-C).

Setting: Uterine myoma is the most common benign neoplasm of the female reproductive tract, with an estimated incidence of 25% to 30% at reproductive age [1,2].

Single-Port Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy in a Patient With Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis.

Study Objective: To present the feasibility of single-port laparoscopic surgery at patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis.

Design: Step by step explanation of the surgery using videos (Canadian Task Force classification III-c).

Setting: Single-port laparoscopic surgery is an emerging technique and an option for improving the benefits of laparoscopic surgery.

Laparoscopic Management of Heterotopic Istmocornual Pregnancy: A Different Technique.

Study Objective: To present a modified technique for laparoscopic cornual resection for the surgical treatment of heterotopic istmocornual pregnancy.

Design: A step-by-step explanation of the surgery using video (Canadian Task Force Classification III-c).

Setting: Heterotopic pregnancy is the coexistence of pregnancy in both the intrauterine and extrauterine sides.
