Introduction: Uterine-conservative surgery via laparoscopy is a challengeable and high risk because of heavy intra-operative bleeding events in reproductive women with highly vascular uterine benign disease. There are three reported cases of women with highly vascular uterine benign diseases and high risk of intra-operative heavy bleeding, but were treated successfully to control intra-operative heavy bleeding risk by transient occlusion of the uterine artery (TOUA) through laparoscopy and resulted in safe conservation of the uterus.

Case Presentation: The cases of women with high risk of heavy bleeding during therapeutic procedure included cesarean scar pregnancy, hydatid form mole on cesarean scar, and cervical pregnancy. All these women had the strong desire to presere their fertility and uterus. In all the three cases, we used the method of TOUA and performed therapeutic surgeries successfully, with less bleeding and safe conservation of the uterus through laparoscopy.

Conclusion: Laparoscopic TOUA could be a therapeutic option to manage heavy intra-operative bleeding during conservative uterine surgeries associated with the risk of heavy bleeding.

Electronic address:

Rationale And Objectives: Extrathyroidal extension (ETE) and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) increase mortality and recurrence risk. Preoperative identification presents considerable challenges. Although radiomics has emerged as a potential tool for identifying ETE and BRAF mutation, systematic evidence supporting its effectiveness remains insufficient.

Statement Of Problem: Harmony between prostheses and periodontal tissues is essential. The presence of a fixed prosthesis has been reported to increase the risk of periodontal lesion onset in abutment teeth and to affect longevity. However, studies comparing the supragingival plaque biofilm on fixed prostheses and natural teeth are lacking.

Introduction: Current trends of delaying childbearing and the increasing incidence of endometrial cancer in nulliparous woman necessitate research and development of fertility sparing treatments. Hormonal therapy with progestins offers an alternative to surgical treatment for a select group of patients of reproductive-age, who wish to preserve their reproductive potential.

Materials And Methods: The study evaluates the effectiveness of medroxyprogesterone acetate therapy in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer, atypical endometrial hyperplasia or atypical polypoid adenomyoma, seeking to preserve fertility.
