Peripartum hysterectomy (PH) is usually undertaken in cases of life-threatening obstetric haemorrhage to prevent the death of the mother. Obstetric haemorrhage, a leading indication for PH, is a major cause of maternal deaths globally, particularly in regions with limited access to advanced medical care. The cause of the per vaginal bleeding was due to the patient in labour with a cervical stitch, and immediate action was taken in the form of a lower segment caesarean section. After the patient's abdominal drain is noticed with fresh blood collection, an emergency obstetric hysterectomy is done.

We examined associations between gendered racial microaggressions (GRMs) during obstetric care with postpartum blood pressure (BP).

Considerable changes in the approaches to optimal use of blood components and their alternatives, driven by the findings of large randomised controlled trials and improved haemovigilance, have become apparent over the past decade.

Resistance to the currently available treatment paradigms is one of the main factors that contributes to poor outcomes in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Novel targeted therapy approaches might enhance the patient's treatment outcome and are urgently needed for this malignancy. While chimeric-antigen receptor (CAR)-based adoptive immunotherapy displays a promising treatment strategy for liquid cancers, their use against cervical cancer is largely unexplored.
