AI Article Synopsis
- The study examined postoperative changes in various acute-phase proteins and endocrine parameters in 40 healthy women.
- Two groups of 20 women each underwent either vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy.
- Significant differences were found in levels of alpha 1-antitrypsin, CRP, and myoglobin based on the type of surgery, but most other parameters showed no notable differences.
Article Abstract
Postoperative changes in various acute-phase-proteins (alpha 1-antitrypsin, c-reactive protein), alpha 2-macroglobulin, haptoglobin, transferrin, c3-c4-complement and myoglobin as well as four endocrine parameters (TBG, SHBG, prolactin and cortisol) were studied in forty healthy women divided into two groups. Each group consisted of 20 women who underwent either vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy. Differences between both groups related to both operative methods, seen in determination of 2-acute-phase-proteins, alpha 1-antithrypsin, CRP and the muscle specific myoglobin where established, whereby no statistically significant differences were apparent concerning the other parameters and hormones.

Third Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University General Hospital "ATTIKON", Medical School, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Athens, Greece.
Background: Endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS) are rare uterine mesenchymal tumors that histologically resemble endometrial stroma of functioning endometrium. The key characteristic of those tumors is the difficulty to diagnose preoperatively that leads to high rate of misdiagnosis. The aim of this case report is to present an extremely rare mutation of these already rare tumors and urge for more personalized therapies in the future.

Pelvic venous disorder (PVD) is a common gynecological disorder caused by chronic pelvic venous congestion. Clinically, it primarily manifests as lower abdominal pain, lower back pain, dyspareunia, increased menstrual flow, and increased vaginal discharge, though positive physical signs are few. The gynecological examination may reveal bilateral ovarian tenderness.

Cervical cancer is the most important cancer type found in women throughout the world. Numerous research studies are being performed to investigate the effectiveness of different strategies for the imaging and treatment of locally advanced cervical cancer, which are showing favorable outcomes. Brachytherapy is characterized by the application of very high radiation doses to target tumor cells with the least exposure to normal tissues.

This prospective observational study aimed to compare abdominal hysterectomy (AH), vaginal hysterectomy (VH), and total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) in terms of oxidative stress (OS) by measuring serum levels of total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), and oxidative stress index (OSI). Of the 3 groups, namely, AH, VH, and TLH, 22 patients were enrolled in each to investigate the aim of the study mentioned above. Patient demographics, clinical and surgical characteristics, and preoperative and postoperative (0th and 24th hours) serum TAS, TOS, and OSI levels were investigated.
