A 25-year-old female patient visited our clinic with complaint of cyclic haematuria. She had previous two Caesarean Sections at a secondary care hospital. Her complete urinalysis showed abundant red blood cells. Through computed tomography a fistula tract between the posterior wall of the bladder and the anterior wall of the lower uterine segment was diagnosed. The Cystoscopy revealed a fistulous opening with a diameter of nearly 1.5 cm localized between the bladder and uterine cavity. Fistulae was repaired by abdominal approach without transection of bladder. Surgery was performed by mobilization of bladder and wide anterior uterine dissection. A 2cm defect in the lower uterine segment was identified and was closed with 0 polyglycolic acid suture. Bladder defect was repaired in two layers and omental tissue flap was placed between the two surfaces. At 6 months follow the up patient was asymptomatic.

The endometrial and vaginal microbiota have co-evolved with the reproductive tract and play a key role in both health and disease. However, the difference between endometrial and vaginal microbiota, as well as their association with reproductive outcomes in women undergoing frozen embryo transfer, remains unclear. 120 women who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and whole embryo freezing were enrolled.

Overexpression of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRH-R) plays a vital role in the advancement of reproductive malignancies such as ovarian, endometrial, and prostate cancer. Peptidomimetic GnRH antagonists are a substantial therapeutic development, providing fast and reversible suppression of gonadotropins by directly blocking GnRH-R. Unlike typical GnRH agonists, these antagonists prevent the early hormonal flare, have a faster onset of action, and have a lower risk of cardiovascular problems.

Impact of Uterine Leiomyomas on Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Young Reproductive-Aged Women: A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study.

Division of Reproductive Endocrinology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, 222 Banpo-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul 06591, Republic of Korea.

Uterine leiomyomas are the most common benign gynecological tumors in women of reproductive age and are often associated with localized symptoms. However, emerging evidence suggests a link between uterine leiomyomas and systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), particularly myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemic stroke (IS). This study aimed to investigate the relationship between uterine leiomyomas and the risk of CVD events in young women aged 20-39 years using a large, nationwide, population-based cohort.
