The aim of this case report is to describe the obstetric performance of a patient with multiple uterine and supravaginal cervical fibroids. A 36-year-old, gravida 3 para 0+2 with multiple uterine and cervical fibroids presented with inevitable abortion at 17 weeks gestation. She had a spontaneous rupture of membranes followed by expulsion of fetus as breech with entrapment of aftercoming head by a cervical fibroid. Oxytocin infusion and digital traction were able to deliver the fetus. The placenta, however, was trapped in the fundal area and could not be delivered under general anesthesia because of mechanical obstruction by the fibroid. Expectant management was successful in expulsion of the placenta within 7 days without complication.

Despite being designated as "noncarcinogenic" human papillomavirus (HPV) types, mono-infection with HPV6 or HPV11 has been found in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) at specific sites, including the larynx, penis, anus, and rarely, the lower female genital tract. The association between clinicopathologic features, viral status, and the carcinogenic mechanisms related to these low-risk HPVs remains unclear. The current study characterizes a series of low-risk HPV6 and HPV11-associated SCCs of the uterine cervix (6 cases) and vulva (2 cases).

Introduction And Hypothesis: This study aims to develop a postpartum stress urinary incontinence (PPSUI) risk prediction model based on an updated definition of PPSUI, using machine learning algorithms. The goal is to identify the best model for early clinical screening to improve screening accuracy and optimize clinical management strategies.
Methods: This prospective study collected data from 1208 postpartum women, with the dataset randomly divided into training and testing sets (8:2).

Gallstone disease during pregnancy, or cholelithiasis, presents significant clinical challenges due to hormonal, anatomical, and metabolic changes. Progesterone therapy, commonly used in pregnancy for uterine bleeding, can exacerbate gallstone risk by reducing gallbladder motility and promoting cholesterol gallstone formation. This case report describes a 29-year-old pregnant woman with no prior gallbladder disease who developed multiple cholesterol gallstones during the third trimester while undergoing progesterone therapy for bleeding associated with a bicornuate uterus.

Subinvolution of the placental site can lead to severe post-partum haemorrhage, though it is a rare cause of the condition. Subinvolution of the placental site is an abnormal persistence of widely dilated uteroplacental spiral arteries in the absence of retained products of conception, and is associated with an increased risk of maternal morbidity and mortality. This report presents a case of an uneventful caesarean section that was followed by multiple presentations of major secondary post-partum haemorrhage, with a subsequent diagnosis of subinvolution of the placental site on histopathology.
