Objective: The aim of this comparative study was to ascertain the efficacy of the Sulmycin® Implant E, an antiseptic sponge, on the incidence of peri- and postoperative morbidity in patients subjected to vaginal hysterectomy.

Material And Methods: This eleven-year study included 228 patients undergoing vaginal hysterectomy. The patients were divided into two groups.

Should lymphadenectomy be performed in early stage I and II sarcomas of the corpus uteri.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of radical lymphadenectomy as a prognostic factor in the management of uterine sarcomas.

Methods: Sixty patients with histologically-proven uterine sarcomas were recruited for this study. The patients were evaluated retrospectively, during the time period from September 1990 to June 2008, in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Aschaffenburg Clinic in Germany.

Alpha2B-adrenergic receptor insertion/deletion polymorphism in women with spontaneous recurrent abortions.

Aim: The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between the alpha2B-adrenoreceptor insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSA).

Methods: Genotyping was performed in 48 women with a history of at least three consecutive spontaneous abortions and 96 women with at least two live births and no history of pregnancy loss. Peripheral venous puncture, DNA extraction and PCR were used for the research of DD, ID and II genotype characters.

Assessment of the feasibility of bipolar coagulation use to reduce hemorrhage in myomectomy performed by minilaparotomy.

The major problem with myomectomy is excessive bleeding from increased uterine blood supply, and this can be a life-threatening condition and prolong postoperative stay. The aim of our study was to evaluate our experience in symptomatic myoma excision with bipolar electrode by mini-laparotomy; we compared 67 procedures with bipolar electrode, in normal saline as distension fluid, to 42 cases performed with unipolar electrode. All participants were pre-menopausal women who had symptomatic myomas View Article and Find Full Text PDF
