Introduction: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory estrogen-dependent disease affecting 10% of women worldwide leading to chronic pelvic pain and infertility which may be treated clinically or surgically.
Areas Covered: Current literaure was reviewed using the keywords 'gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa),' 'endometriosis,' 'infertility' and 'chronic pelvic pain.' Relevant papers prioritizing randomized controlled clinical trials (RCT), systematic reviews, meta-analyses, as well as international guidelines were evaluated.

Anesthesiology, the medical specialty that deals with the management of vital functions in patients undergoing surgery, has played an important role in the successful development of cardiac interventions worldwide. Tracing the historical roots of cardiac anesthesia and critical care from its inception in the late 1950s, a paradigm shift in perioperative care has been driven by a better understanding of the mechanisms of organ dysfunction in stressful conditions and technological advances regarding surgical approach, patient monitoring, and organ protection. Although progress in cardiac anesthesia and critical care lagged a little behind in Caribbean territories, successful achievements have been accomplished over the last forty years.

Approximately 36% of patients with cervical cancer present with regional nodal metastasis at diagnosis, which is associated with adverse survival outcomes after definitive treatment. In the modern era of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT), where excellent local control is achieved for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), nodal failure remains a major challenge to cure. To optimize treatment outcomes for node-positive LACC and reduce the incidence of nodal failure, various treatment approaches have been explored, including methods of surgical nodal staging or dissection, RT dose escalation strategies, such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to involved nodes, and elective treatment of subclinical para-aortic (PAO) disease.

: Anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AOs) are central nervous system (CNS) World Health Organization (WHO) grade 3 gliomas characterized by isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation (m)IDH and 1p/19q codeletion. AOs are typically treated with surgery and chemoradiation. However, chemoradiation can cause detrimental late neurocognitive morbidities and an accelerated disease course.
