Sexual function after surgically corrected menstrual outflow obstruction due to congenital anomalies.

Objectives: To enhance evidence-based knowledge about sexual function and the prevalence of sexual dysfunction after surgical therapy for congenital anomalies with menstrual outflow obstruction.

Materials And Methods: In this long-term case-control study, all patients underwent surgical correction of an obstructive Müllerian anomaly between 1980 and 2013. At the start of the case-control study, patients were at least 18 years old and were two years post their initial operation.

Long-term effects of surgically corrected menstrual outflow obstruction: A case-control study.

Objective: To enhance evidence-based knowledge on long-term sequalae in patients with surgically corrected obstructing Müllerian anomalies.

Methods: This long-term case-control study included patients with menstrual outflow obstruction due to congenital anomalies of the uterus or vagina, who were at least 18 years old, and for whom 2 years had elapsed since the first surgery at the start of this study. The control group consisted of women without current gynecological problems.

Added value of involving patients in the first step of multidisciplinary guideline development: a qualitative interview study among infertile patients.

Background: Patient involvement in scoping the guideline is emphasized, but published initiatives actively involving patients are generally limited to the writing and reviewing phase.

Objective: To assess patients' added value to the scoping phase of a multidisciplinary guideline on infertility.

Design: Qualitative interview study.

Long-term results of vaginal construction with the use of Frank dilation and a peritoneal graft (Davydov procedure) in patients with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster syndrome.

Objective: To describe long-term outcomes after nonsurgical and surgical treatment of vaginal agenesis in a cohort of girls and women with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster (MRK) syndrome.

Design: Retrospective cohort study using a standardized case record form.

Setting: University hospital.

Salpingotomy versus salpingectomy in women with tubal pregnancy (ESEP study): an open-label, multicentre, randomised controlled trial.

Background: Tubal ectopic pregnancy can be surgically treated by salpingectomy, in which the affected Fallopian tube is removed, or salpingotomy, in which the tube is preserved. Despite potentially increased risks of persistent trophoblast and repeat ectopic pregnancy, salpingotomy is often preferred over salpingectomy because the preservation of both tubes is assumed to offer favourable fertility prospects, although little evidence exists to support this assumption. We aimed to assess whether salpingotomy would improve rates of ongoing pregnancy by natural conception compared with salpingectomy.
