A prospective study on risk factors associated with the development of isthmocele after caesarean section.

Objectives: The primary objective was to detect the number of women developing isthmocele following lower segment caesarean section. The secondary objectives included analysing the risk factors associated with developing isthmocele and measuring the agreement between Transvaginal Ultrasonography (TVS) and Saline infusion Sonohysterography (SIS) in diagnosing Isthmocele.

Methods: This study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and focused on women who had undergone Lower Segment cesarean Section (LSCS).

A rare case of squamous cell carcinoma associated with a huge ovarian dermoid cyst in a postmenopausal woman.

Malignant transformation of mature cystic teratoma (MCT) is a well-known but uncommon phenomenon seen mostly in postmenopause women. We report a case of a 65-year-old postmenopausal woman with a malignant transformation of MCT and with a low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion in her cervix. She was treated surgically by total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with a preoperative diagnosis of right ovarian teratoma.

The Unforeseen Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Dismal Pregnancy and Fetal Outcomes.

India noticed a surge in maternal mortality and stillbirth rate during the COVID-19 pandemic. This rise in mortality is not always due to viral infection by COVID-19 but is probably contributed by other determinants. We present a case of maternal mortality with stillbirth in a multigravida, at 41 weeks' gestation, with bronchial asthma, severe preeclampsia, fetal bradycardia, severe symptoms of flu infection, and a previous cesarean delivery.

Zebrafish embryos exposed to deltamethrin exhibit abnormalities despite induced expression of related genes ( you, you-too, momo and u-boot).

Evaluation of the toxic effects of a widely used synthetic pyrethroid, deltamethrin (DM), was carried out in this study. This pesticide is preferred for pest control because of its low environmental persistence and toxicity. We investigated the expression pattern of four genes, namely, you ( you), yot ( you-too), momo ( mom) and ubo ( u-boot) during early development of zebrafish, that is, from 12 hpf to 48 hpf stages.

Secondary hemorrhage after total laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Background And Objectives: The purpose of this study is to estimate the cumulative incidence, patient characteristics, and potential risk factors for secondary hemorrhage after total laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Methods: All women who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy at Paul's Hospital between January 2004 and April 2012 were included in the study. Patients who had bleeding per vaginam between 24 hours and 6 weeks after primary surgery were included in the analysis.
