Bariatric surgery reduces odds of perioperative complications after inpatient hysterectomy: Analysis from a national database, 2016 to 2018.

Background: Increased body mass index is a known risk factor for increased adverse events post-hysterectomy. The effects of previous bariatric surgery on outcomes after inpatient hysterectomy are not well elucidated.

Methods: The 2016 to 2018 National Inpatient Sample was queried for patients who underwent hysterectomy using International Classification of Disease 10 Procedure Codes before a matched analysis was performed to neutralize the potential confounding effects of comorbidities, body mass index, and age.

MRI review of female pelvic fistulizing disease.

A wide variety of fistulae occur in the female pelvis, most of which cause significant morbidity. Diagnosis, characterization, and treatment planning may be difficult using traditional imaging modalities such as fluoroscopy and computed tomography. To date, there is no comprehensive literature review of the radiologic findings associated with various types of female pelvic fistulae, and furthermore, none dedicated to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Florid cystic endosalpingiosis with uterine preservation and successful assisted reproductive therapy.

•While endosalpingiosis is often asymptomatic & incidental, florid cystic endosalpingiosis can have a variable presentation•Cystic endosalpingiosis can be difficult to differentiate from other non-neoplastic peritoneal inclusion cysts•Although associated with serous pelvic neoplasms, there is no evidence for oophorectomy at the completion of fertility•There is no strong evidence that hysterectomy along with cyst resection leads to improved outcomes if pathology is benign•This is the first reported case of successful assisted-reproductive therapy after resected florid cystic endosalpingiosis.
