Reliability of an electronic uterine diagram to standardize intrauterine adhesion scoring.

J Minim Invasive Gynecol

December 2024

CHU Rouen Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, CHU Rouen, Rouen, France.

Study Objective: To study the inter-rater reliability of an electronic complementary uterine diagram (eAFS) in comparison to the conventional American Fertility Society intrauterine adhesions (IUA) scoring system (cAFS). As a secondary aim we wanted to assess the intra-rater reliability of these tools.

Design: This was an observational cross over study with a nested test re-test design.

Mechanistic insights into intrauterine adhesions.

Semin Immunopathol

November 2024

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Medical School, Nanjing University, Nanjing, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Intrauterine adhesions (IUA), also known as Asherman's syndrome, occur due to damage to the endometrial layer, often from medical procedures, leading to fibrous tissue formation that can block the uterine cavity or cervical canal.
  • Diagnosis of IUA is best performed through hysteroscopy, but predicting future live birth rates remains uncertain.
  • New research on the underlying causes of IUA, including inflammation, cellular balance issues, autophagy defects, and ferroptosis, is essential for developing improved treatment strategies.

Conservative surgical repair of placenta increta invading into uterine septum: case report.

J Med Case Rep

November 2024

Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department, Faculty of Medicine, University of Alexandria, 22 El-Gaish Rd, Al Azaritah, Alexandria, Egypt.

Background: The prevalence of placenta accreta spectrum is on the rise, primarily as a consequence of an increasing number of Cesarean sections. Nevertheless, uterine anomalies, particularly uterine septum, pose a notable risk factor for its occurrence. While there are limited case reports documenting the association between uterine septum and placenta adherence, most of these cases have been linked to prior hysteroscopic treatment of the septum.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess how common intrauterine synechiae (scar tissue) are after women undergo medically-treated postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and how different treatment methods might influence this condition.
  • Conducted at Angers University Hospital, the study involved 83 women who experienced PPH, with diagnostic hysteroscopy performed 12 weeks after delivery to check for synechiae.
  • Findings showed that 24% of participants had mild synechiae, with second manual uterine examinations and bimanual massage identified as key risk factors, indicating a need for more research on the long-term effects of these complications.

Research Question: What is the value of three-dimensional (3D) transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) in the diagnosis and assessment of Asherman syndrome?

Design: This was a prospective study conducted at a hysteroscopy centre.

Results: A total of 685 participants were recruited, 65 dropped out and 620 were finally enrolled and analysed. The overall sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 3D-TVS in the diagnosis of Asherman syndrome were 95.
