RESUMEN

Tubal abortion is characterized by the extrusion of the foetus into the abdominal (peritoneal) cavity. It can either be a complete extrusion or incomplete with residual tissue remaining in the fallopian tube. It is a type of ectopic pregnancy that is difficult to determine the exact incidence of tubal pregnancies. Identifying cases of tubal abortions is crucial for individualized care since it can lead to a more conservative treatment approach. The diagnosis should be based on ultrasound imaging, b-hCG levels and visual conformation during exploratory surgery, either open or laparoscopic. The article describes the case of a 30-year old patient who presented with lower abdominal pain and was admitted for a suspected ectopic pregnancy. Ultrasound imaging showed a mass resembling a tubal pregnancy next to the uterus with b-hCG levels of 111.8 U/L. During laparoscopic surgery, a tubal abortion was detected in the pouch of Douglas (Rectouterine pouch). This finding led us to preserve both fallopian tubes. Histopathology confirmed our clinical findings. A conservative approach can be sufficient in case of tubal abortions, which can lead to preserved fertility and tubal functions.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: A review of current knowledge on the pathophysiology, diagnostic and treatment options for chronic endometritis in infertile women. METHODS AND RESULTS: One of the major causes of failed in vitro fertilization (IVF) is undiagnosed intrauterine pathologies, including chronic inflammation of the uterine mucosa - chronic endometritis. However, some authors relativize the negative impact of chronic endometritis on reproductive outcomes. The etiopathogenesis of chronic endometritis is due to qualitative and quantitative changes in the endometrial microbiome with abnormal multiplication of microorganisms naturally occurring in the uterine cavity or vagina. There is no uniform consensus on the most common pathogen causing chronic endometritis. It is characterized by infiltration of plasma cells into the endometrial stroma outside the menstrual cycle, accompanied by hyperaemia and endometrial oedema. Clinical symptoms are very mild or absent. The diagnosis of chronic endometritis is often difficult because there is no specific clinical or laboratory diagnostic method. The following investigative options are commonly used for the diagnosis of chronic endometritis: diagnostic hysteroscopy, histopathological examination of the endometrium including CD 138 immunohistochemistry and culture from the uterine cavity. However, standardised international hysteroscopic and histopathological criteria for accurate diagnosis of chronic endometritis are still lacking. Empirically administered antibiotic therapy improves the success rate of pregnancy and delivery of a viable foetus in infertile patients with proven chronic endometritis. In addition to reviewing the current knowledge of chronic endometritis, this article discusses the importance of hysteroscopy in the diagnostic process. CONCLUSION: Chronic endometritis is often a clinically silent disease with negative impact on reproduction in infertile women. Although there are still many unresolved issues, the introduction of hysteroscopy into the diagnostic process is important for clinical practice; however, hysteroscopy even in combination with histological examination of the endometrium, often does not allow an unequivocal diagnosis of chronic endometritis. Further prospective randomised studies in a selected group of women with proven chronic endometritis and repeated failure to implant proven euploid embryos should refine this knowledge.

RESUMEN

The number of patients given neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by fertility-sparing surgery in cervical cancer is still scarce. Only a few centres perform these procedures, and thus, such procedures remain largely in the experimental stage. Patients that do not fulfil the criteria for standard fertility-sparing procedure can be included in studies with NAC followed by fertility-sparing procedure. We must consider that both oncological and pregnancy outcomes are important. Patients with only microscopic disease after NAC are apparently the best candidates for fertility-sparing surgery. Current data are not sufficient to identify the optimal procedure after NAC [abdominal radical trachelectomy (ART) or vaginal radical trachelectomy (VRT) or simple trachelectomy]. Some evidence suggests that pregnancy outcome is better after simple trachelectomy as compared with VRT or ART. Long-term results regarding oncological outcome for this concept are still lacking. Adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with histopathological risk factors (lymphovascular space involvement (LVSI), macroscopic residual disease) would decrease a risk of recurrence.

RESUMEN

The status of regional lymph nodes is the most important prognostic factor in early cervical cancer patients. Pelvic lymph node dissections are routinely performed as a part of standard surgical treatment. Systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy is associated with short- and long-term morbidities. This review discusses single components of the sentinel lymph node mapping (SLNM) technique and results of the detection of sentinel lymph nodes. SLNM biopsy performed by an experienced team for small volume tumors (<2 cm) has high specific side detection rate, excellent negative-predictive value and high sensitivity. Uncommon lymphatic drainage has been reported in 15% of cervical cancer patients. There is sufficient data now to suggest that SLNM with 99mTc plus blue dye in the hands of a surgeon with extensive experience should prove to be an important part of individualized cervical cancer surgery and increase the safety of less radical or fertility-sparing surgery.

RESUMEN

The prognosis of endometrial cancer (EC) is generally favorable, while lymph node status remains the most important prognostic factor. Sentinel lymph node mapping (SLNM) could help to find women in whom adjuvant therapy could be omitted. This review analyzes different techniques of injection and histopathologic elaboration of SLNM in EC. Results of studies on SLNM in ECs seem to be promising, but only a small series have been published so far. The studies are subdivided into three groups by the technique of injection (hysteroscopic, subserosal and cervical). Range of detection rate for SLNM varies from 45 to 100%. Hysteroscopic injection is not easy to learn; moreover, exact peritumoral injection in large tumors is often impossible. Subserosal administration of tracer is difficult during laparoscopic or robotic surgery. Cervical injection is quite a controversial technique because distribution of SLNs in ECs is different from cervical cancer; moreover, there is no large study using cervical injection with systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy.
