Non-tubal ectopic pregnancy treatment experiences of a tertiary care center.

Aim: To evaluate the incidence, the risk factors, and the treatment outcomes of Non-tubal ectopic pregnancies (NTEP) treated in a tertiary care center.

Material And Methods: A total of 110 NTEP cases treated between 2014 and 2019 were included in the retrospective study. The study cohort was divided into 6 groups according to the pregnancy localization: 87 cesarean scar pregnancies (CSPs), 7 ovarian pregnancies, 6 interstitial pregnancies, 4 rudimentary horn pregnancies, 4 abdominal pregnancies, and 2 cervical pregnancies.

Risk factors for antibiotic therapy failure in women with tubo-ovarian abscess: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Aim: Medical therapy with antibiotics only and surgical drainage are the treatment options of tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA). It is not yet known exactly which cases need surgical treatment. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the risk factors leading antibiotic therapy failure in women with TOA.

Evaluation of the Success of Hysteroscopic Uterine Septum Resection.

Objectives: The aim is to use three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasonography (3-D TVUS) to evaluate the success of hysteroscopic metroplasty for the uterine septum and to compare the pregnancy outcomes.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-eight patients with uterine septum who had hysteroscopic uterine septum resection were recruited. Preoperative 3-D TVUS measurements of the septal apex to the uterine fundus (s1), septal apex to internal os distance (s2), and intercornual distance (s3) were compared with the postoperative values.

Do the change in β-hCG values between the 0th and 4th days in tubal ectopic pregnancy treatment with a single-dose methotrexate (MTX) protocol predict the need for a second dose of MTX?

Aim: The single-dose methotrexate (MTX) regimen is effective and minimizes side effects but an additional second dose is needed in case of failure in an ectopic pregnancy (EP). We aimed to predict the additional MTX dose by evaluating the change in β-hCG values between day 0 and day 4 in EPs with administered single-dose MTX regimen.

Method: A total of 454 tubal EPs between 2013 and 2019 were evaluated retrospectively.

Feasibility and Safety of Laparoscopic Surgery in Large Ovarian Masses.

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic surgery for large ovarian masses with benign features.

Materials And Methods: Women who underwent laparoscopic surgery for an ovarian mass with benign features between 2017 and 2019 at a tertiary referral center were included in the retrospective study. Based on the size of the ovarian mass, the women were divided into the case and control groups of ≥10 cm and <10 cm, respectively.
