The authors analysed the results of 225 women with carcinoma of the uterine cervix, treated at the gynecological clinic of the National Oncological Center for a 10-year period. The mean age was 36.7 years. No complaints were found in 206 patients. Cytological Pap 3-5 was established in 221 women. Conformity between histological examination after a colposcopic-directed biopsy, conization or total hysterectomy was found in 117 patients (53.18%). Carcinoma was discovered at 0 degree in 34 patients (11.44%) only just after conization, but in 69 women the tumour was removed during a colposcopic-directed biopsy and was not found in the operation material. Treatment of 217 women was conization, of 3 women--classical total hysterectomy and of 5 patients--intracavitary brachytherapy. In 7 patients the tumour was not removed till healthy tissue, which caused reconization in one woman and total hysterectomy in 6 patients. A relapse of the disease was found in 9 patients up to 2 years after conization (6 cases with carcinoma in situ, 3--with microinvasive carcinoma). Total hysterectomy was performed in all patients. Possibility for discovery of a relapse in the form of invasive carcinoma is ruled out during systemic and continuous observation. It is possible to perform reconization in women with persistent carcinoma in situ in view of preserving their generative function.

Background: There is indication that the fallopian tubes might be involved in ovarian cancer pathogenesis and their removal reduces cancer risk. Hence, bilateral salpingectomy during hysterectomy or sterilization, so called opportunistic salpingectomy (OS), is gaining wide acceptance as a preventive strategy. Recently, it was discussed whether implementation of OS at other gynecologic surgery, e.

Objective: The Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer trial demonstrated that minimally invasive radical hysterectomy was associated with worse disease-free survival and overall survival among women with early-stage cervical cancer. It is unknown whether this applies to patients with low-risk disease following simple hysterectomy.

Methods: Among patients who underwent simple hysterectomy in the Simple Hysterectomy And PElvic node assessment trial, univariate and multivariate Cox models were used to assess the association of minimally invasive versus open surgery with clinical outcomes, including pelvic and extra-pelvic recurrence-free survival, overall recurrence-free survival, and overall survival.

Introduction And Importance: Debulking surgery is the main approach for recurrent adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCTs), but the effectiveness of laparoscopic extensive cytoreduction in advanced cases and its impact on quality of life (QoL) remains unclear.

Case Presentation: A 34-year-old woman, who had a right adnexectomy for AGCT in 2020, was referred with an 8-month history of a large left ovarian cyst and amenorrhea. Preoperative evaluations indicated a recurrence 18 months post-diagnosis.

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant preventable cause of postoperative morbidity and mortality after major abdominopelvic surgery that calls for extended VTE prophylaxis (eVTEp). Literature suggests that significant racial disparities may exist in post-operative care.

Objective: The study sought to examine if racial disparities exist in the administration of eVTEp after hysterectomy in a statewide collaborative.

International Urogynecology Consultation Chapter 3 Committee 1 - Pessary Management.

Int Urogynecol J

January 2025

Division of Health Services Research & Implementation Science, Southern California Permanente Medical Group, San Diego, CA, USA.

Introduction And Hypothesis: This manuscript is part of the International Urogynecological Consultation (IUC) on Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP), Chapter 3, Committee 1 focusing on pessary management of POP.

Methods: A narrative review was conducted by an international, multi-disciplinary group of clinicians working in the field of pelvic health following a search of the literature using the MeSH terms "pelvic organ prolapse" OR "urogenital prolapse" OR "vaginal prolapse" OR "uterovaginal prolapse" AND "pessary" OR "support device" OR "intravaginal device." Relevant studies, as determined after review using the Covidence manuscript review platform, were included.
