Objectives: Hysterectomy, one of the most frequent surgical procedures in women, is commonly performed by a minimally-invasive approach (laparoscopic or vaginal) as recommended by the French guidelines. The French authorities aim to have 66 % of all procedures performed as same-day surgery in 2020. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and identify factors associated with success or failure of same-day surgery for minimally-invasive hysterectomy.
Study Design: We conducted a prospective double-center observational study at the Caen and Amiens University Hospitals between September 2017 and May 2018 including hospitalized patients managed for a laparoscopic or vaginal hysterectomy. Patients were younger than 70 and have no major medical problems. The patients were placed into a "fit" or "unfit" group according to their Post Anaesthetic Discharge Scoring System (PADSS) score 6 h post-surgery. All the patients were asked to complete an assessment questionnaire during their hospitalization.
Results: Of the 50 included patients, half were placed in the "fit" group. A history of laparotomy was significantly predictive of failure of same-day discharge (p = 0.003) but not uterine size or Body Mass Index (BMI). The main barriers for discharge were pain (p<0.001) and postoperative nausea/vomiting (PONV) (p<0.001). Four patients, all in the "unfit" group, had Clavien-Dindo grade 1 postoperative complications.
Conclusion: Same-day minimally invasive hysterectomy is a feasible and safe procedure. Factors associated with same-day hysterectomy failure were laparotomy, pain and postoperative nausea/vomiting.

Background: Local relapse has not been eradicated even in the era of total mesorectum excision. Although various approaches have been attempted, R0 resection remains the only potentially curative treatment. PATIENT AND METHODS: A 45-year-old woman with a history of laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection was diagnosed with pelvic recurrence 7 months ago.

Müllerian (paramesonephric) duct anomalies (MDA) are a rare condition, occurring in 5.5% of female newborns. One of the most complex malformations is represented by Obstructed Hemivagina and Ipsilateral Renal Anomalies (OHVIRA) syndrome, also known as Herlyn -Werner-Wunderlich (HWW) syndrome.

Background/objectives: This systematic review aimed to evaluate the outcomes of minimally invasive techniques in gynecological cancer surgery, specifically laparoscopic hysterectomies (LHs), robotic-assisted hysterectomies (RHs), and laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomies (LAVHs).
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search of electronic databases including PubMed and MedLine from January 2010 to August 2024. The search included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies.

Introduction: Ovarian adenomyoma is a rare gynecological tumor with a high misdiagnosis rate, leading many patients to undergo unnecessary surgeries that may affect fertility. Menstrual abdominal pain is the most common symptom, and auxiliary examinations often cannot clarify its nature. It often relies on intraoperative diagnosis, and surgical resection can achieve good therapeutic effects.
