Management of vaginal agenesis in Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome patients is by creating functional neovagina through surgical or nonsurgical route. Surgical repair using minimally invasive technique is a favorable option in creating neovagina. In this study, the patients underwent neovaginoplasty. Clinical follow-ups were done at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The primary outcomes were anatomic and functional successes; anatomical success was defined as a ≥6 cm-long neovagina that allows for easy introduction of two fingers, and functional success was defined with Female Sexual Function Index FSFI-6 questionnaire score above 19. Modified neovaginoplasty using autologous peritoneal graft was performed on the patients ( = 6). Follow-up showed mean vaginal lengths of 8.16 cm, mean surgery time of 175 min, mean blood loss of 59.17 ml, and mean duration of hospital stay of 2 days, with an average FSFI-6 score of 25,2. Therefore, we concluded that laparoscopic approach using modified technique of autologous peritoneal graft provides satisfactory result.

Purpose: The reconstruction of dura matter is a challenging problem for neurosurgeons. A number of materials for dural reconstruction have recently been developed, but some of them have poor biocompatibility, poor mechanical properties, and adverse effects. Bovine parietal peritoneum is a promising natural material for regenerative medicine and reconstructive surgery.

Background: This study aims to examine the effect of Leukocyte-Rich Platelet-Rich Plasma (LR-PRP) on bacterial translocation in an experimental peritonitis model in rats. Secondary peritonitis occurs due to the loss of integrity in the mucosal barrier of the gastrointestinal system, resulting from contamination of the peritoneal cavity by microorganisms. LR-PRP has been shown to have positive anti-infectious, immunomodulatory, and angiogenetic effects.

Introduction And Importance: Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL) is a rare and aggressive T-cell lymphoma that primarily affects the intestine. It has a poor prognosis and high mortality rate. Symptoms at presentation can be non-specific, and imaging studies may show similarities with nonmalignant conditions.
