Uterine prolapse in the neonate.

J Pediatr Surg

Published: April 1984

The rare condition of neonatal uterine prolapse is usually associated with congenital spinal defects and is often resistant to simple reduction. Previously, treatment has been primarily surgical and often deforming. In this case report a silastic-ensheathed pessary fashioned from a rubber Penrose drain allowed a nonoperative, simple and permanent correction, permitting the more important, yet less obvious, associated defects to take therapeutic precedence.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of hysterectomy for benign uterine tumors on subsequent ovarian reserve, sexual function, and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).

Methods: The present study was a prospective longitudinal analysis that recruited patients aged 35-45 years who underwent simple hysterectomy without oophorectomy for symptomatic benign uterine tumors. Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and serum sex hormone profiles, including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol, progesterone, and total testosterone, were measured at four timepoints: before hysterectomy, and 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery has evolved toward minimally invasive techniques. Laparoscopic sacrohysteropexy (LSHP) is associated with reduced morbidity and lower mesh exposure risks. This study evaluates the long-term outcomes of LSHP using the SERATEX SlimSling mesh for isolated uterine prolapse.

Uterine inversion is a rare condition that refers to the collapse of the fundus into the uterine cavity and occurs in puerperal and non-puerperal conditions. Non-puerperal uterine inversion is particularly infrequent. Diagnosing non-puerperal uterine inversion is often challenging because it resembles vaginal or cervical tumors and pelvic organ prolapse.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The objective was to elucidate the clinical utility of two reference lines, the pubosacrococcygeal joint line (PCL) and pubococcygeal joint line (PCL), in the quantitative diagnosis of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and pelvic floor laxity.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of magnetic resonance defecography (MRD) in patients with stage II or above POP was conducted. POP and pelvic floor relaxation were quantitatively assessed using both PCL and PCL as reference lines.

In this case, the patient had uterine adenocarcinoma with a huge necrotic mass prolapsed from the vagina, complicated by necrotic infection and massive bleeding. Based on ultrasound results preoperatively, uterine prolapse with infected necrosis was considered due to significant vaginal bleeding, prompting emergency surgery and blood transfusion. Postoperatively, pathology review indicated a misdiagnosis.
