RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Angioleiomyoma, a benign tumour composed of smooth muscle cells and thick-walled vessels, is expected to be very rare in the female genital tract. This study aimed to describe the clinicopathological features and treatment outcomes of angioleiomyoma in the female genital tract. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 89 women with angioleiomyoma in the genital tract who were treated at Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between July 2008 and October 2023. Symptom remission rate was the primary outcome of the study. RESULTS: Angioleiomyomas accounted for 0.6% of leiomyomas of the female genital tract. The average age of the 89 women was 41.8 ± 8.7 years. Seventy women (78.7%) had a history of uterine surgery, of whom two patients had removed uterine angioleiomyoma by laparoscopic myomectomy. The angioleiomyomas of 61 (68.5%) women were located in the uterine corpus, 17 (19.1%) in the broad ligament, 10 (11.2%) in the cervix and only 1 (1.1%) in the vagina. Abnormal uterine bleeding was the main clinical manifestation of angioleiomyomas located in the uterine corpus or cervix, whereas the main clinical manifestation of angioleiomyomas in the broad ligaments was pelvic mass. Of the 89 women, 59 underwent surgery to preserve the uterus, and 30 underwent total hysterectomy or subtotal hysterectomy. The intraoperative blood loss was more than 500 ml (700-4,500 ml) in six women. The symptom remission rate was 100% after surgery. Among the 59 women with preserved uterus, 8 showed multiple uterine leiomyomas during follow-up, but it was difficult to determine whether they were angioleiomyomas. Angioleiomyomas recurred in one women who underwent total hysterectomy. CONCLUSION: Angioleiomyoma is rare in the female reproductive tract, and patients may present with diverse symptoms, which are related to the location of the tumour. Hysterectomy and myomectomy are both effective treatment methods, but the risk of intraoperative bleeding should be recognised for multiple lesions and those with large diameters. Relapse may occur in some patients.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the rate of avoidable admissions following anticipated same-day discharge for patients undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy and to identify risk factors associated with such admissions. METHODS: A retrospective review was performed of patients who underwent a minimally invasive hysterectomy between March 2019 and July 2021 for a suspected gynecologic malignancy at a single tertiary care center. Pre-operatively, patients were assessed for same-day discharge versus planned admission. Reasons for day-of-surgery admission despite anticipated same-day discharge were categorized as anesthesia-related, system issues, intra-operative factors, post-operative pain, and social factors. Patients deemed not candidates for same-day discharge were defined as planned admissions. Indications were categorized as necessary or potentially avoidable. Descriptive and comparative statistics were used to summarize the cohort. RESULTS: In total, 372 patients were identified: 261 (70.2%) anticipated same-day discharges and 111 (29.8%) planned admissions. Of anticipated same-day discharges, 230/261 (88.1%) were successfully discharged, while 31/261 (11.9%) required admission. Reasons for unplanned admissions were anesthesia-related (14/31, 45.2%), system issues (7/31, 22.6%), intra-operative factors (5/31, 16.1%), post-operative pain (3/31, 9.7%), and social factors (2/31, 6.5%). Among the 111 pre-operatively planned admissions, 81 (73.0%) were necessary due to comorbidities or surgical complexity, while 30 (27.0%) were potentially avoidable because patients could have been optimized for same-day discharge. Opportunities for optimization pre-operatively included comorbidities (13/30, 43.3%), system issues (8/30, 26.7%), social factors (6/30, 20.0%), and provider preference (3/30, 10.0%). CONCLUSION: Most patients undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy can be safely discharged the same day. Potentially avoidable admissions were primarily related to patient comorbidities that can be better optimized pre-operatively.

The proportion of women experiencing premature menopause is on the rise in India, particularly in the age groups of 30-39 years. Consequently, there is a need to understand the factors influencing the prevalence of premature menopausal status among women. Our study uses the data from 180,743 women gathered during the latest Indian version of the Demography Health Survey (National Family Health Survey-5). Our results suggest that close to 5% of women in rural areas and 3% of women in urban areas experience premature menopause, and this figure varies across Indian States. The regression results show that surgical menopause, lower levels of education, poorer wealth index, rural residence, female sterilization, and insurance coverage are key drivers of premature menopause. One of the striking factors is that the prevalence of premature menopause among those with the lowest levels of education (6.85%) is around seven times higher than those with the highest level of education (0.94%). We conducted a decomposition analysis to delve into the factors contributing to this inequality. The results show that undergoing a hysterectomy (surgical menopause) account for 73% of the gap in premature menopausal rates between women with the lowest and highest levels of education. This indicates that women with poor education are more likely to undergo hysterectomy at a younger age. This finding warrants further exploration as we would expect that women from lower socio-economic background would have limited access to surgical care, however, our results suggest otherwise. This perhaps indicates a lack of awareness, lack of alternative treatment options, and over-reliance on surgical care while neglecting conservative management. Our results have implications for addressing the diverse needs of the increasing number of women in their post-menopause phase and for focusing on conservative treatment options for these women.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although minimally invasive hysterectomy offers advantages, abdominal hysterectomy remains the predominant surgical method. Creating a standardized dataset and establishing a hysterectomy registry system present opportunities for early interventions in reducing volume and selecting benign hysterectomy methods. This research aims to develop a dataset for designing benign hysterectomy registration system. METHODS: Between April and September 2020, a qualitative study was carried out to create a data set for enrolling patients who were candidate for hysterectomy. At this stage, the research team conducted an information needs assessment, relevant data element identification, registry software development, and field testing; Subsequently, a web-based application was designed. In June 2023the registry software was evaluated using data extracted from medical records of patients admitted at Al-Zahra Hospital in Tabriz, Iran. RESULTS: During two months, 40 patients with benign hysterectomy were successfully registered. The final dataset for the hysterectomy patient registry comprise 11 main groups, 27 subclasses, and a total of 91 Data elements. Mandatory data and essential reports were defined. Furthermore, a web-based registry system designed and evaluated based on data set and various scenarios. CONCLUSION: Creating a hysterectomy registration system is the initial stride toward identifying and registering hysterectomy candidate patients. this system capture information about the procedure techniques, and associated complications. In Iran, this registry can serve as a valuable resource for assessing the quality of care delivered and the distribution of clinical measures.

Recent studies show declining trends in hysterectomy rates in several countries. The objective of this study was to analyse hysterectomy time trends in Germany over a fifteen-year period using an age-period-cohort approach. Using an ecological study design, inpatient data from Diagnoses Related Group on hysterectomies by subtype performed in Germany from 2005 to 2019 were retrieved from the German Statistical Office. Descriptive time trends and age-period-cohort analyses were then performed. A total of 1,974,836 hysterectomies were performed over the study period. The absolute number of hysterectomies reduced progressively from 155,680 (365 procedures/100,000 women) in 2005 to 101,046 (257 procedures/100,000 women) in 2019. Total and radical hysterectomy decreased by 49.7% and 44.2%, respectively, whilst subtotal hysterectomy increased five-fold. The age-period-cohort analysis revealed highest hysterectomy rates in women aged 45-49 for total and subtotal hysterectomy with 608.63 procedures/100,000 women (95% CI 565.70, 654.82) and 151.30 procedures/100,000 women (95% CI 138.38, 165.44) respectively. Radical hysterectomy peaked later at 65-69 years with a rate of 40.63 procedures/100,000 women (95% CI 38.84, 42.52). The risk of undergoing total or radical hysterectomy decreased over the study period but increased for subtotal hysterectomy. Although, overall hysterectomy rates have declined, subtotal hysterectomy rates have increased; reflecting changes in clinical practice largely influenced by the availability of uterus-sparing options, evolving guidelines and introduction of newer surgical approaches.

Background: We compared Pfannenstiel and midline skin incisions for cesarean hysterectomy in women with confirmed Placenta Accreta Spectrum Disorders. Aims: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate the outcomes of Pfannenstiel and midline skin incisions in women undergoing cesarean section hysterectomy for suspected placenta accreta at Akdeniz University Hospital between January 2010 and February 2022. Histopathological confirmation was obtained for all cases. Demographic, perioperative, and postoperative data, along with neonatal outcomes, were extracted from the hospital's electronic database. Possible complaints related to the incision site or other issues (e.g., vaginal dryness or sexual life) were identified through telephone interviews. Subjects were stratified into Pfannenstiel and midline incision cohorts, with subsequent data comparison. Results: Data from 67 women with a histopathologically confirmed PAS diagnosis were analyzed. Of these, 49 (73.1%) underwent Pfannenstiel incision, and 18 (26.9%) had a midline skin incision. Incisions were based on the surgeon's experience. Pfannenstiel incision was more common in antepartum hemorrhage, preoperative hemorrhage, and emergency surgery (p = 0.02, p = 0.014, p = 0.002, respectively). Hypogastric artery ligation occurred in 30 cases (61.2%) in the Pfannenstiel group but none in the midline group. Cosmetic dissatisfaction and sexual problems were more prevalent in the midline group (p < 0.05, all). Preoperative and postoperative blood parameters, transfused blood products, and neonatal outcomes were similar between the two groups. Conclusions: Relaparotomy, bladder injury, blood loss, and need for blood transfusion were more prevalent in the Pfannenstiel group, while greater dissatisfaction with the incision was observed in the midline incision group. Midline incision seems to be more favorable in patients with Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS). Patients may be informed regarding the worse cosmetic outcomes and possible sexual problems related to vaginal dryness when midline laparotomy is planned. But before opting for a Pfannenstiel incision, patients should receive comprehensive information regarding the potential risks of relaparotomy and bladder injury.

OBJECTIVE: Endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) and atypical hyperplasia (AH) are recognized precursors for endometrial cancer (EC). Most current guidelines do not recommend the routine surgical evaluation of lymph nodes (LN), although recent studies indicate increased use of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in patients with a preoperative diagnosis of EIN/AH. We aimed to evaluate the rates of positive LN and its effect on the incidence of upstaging of EIN/AH patients, complications, and adjuvant treatment administration. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted in the following databases: MEDLINE(R) using the OvidSP interface and PUBMED, Embase, Web of Science, Clinicaltrials.gov and Cochrane Library. Included were studies investigating lymph node evaluation in patients diagnosed with EIN/AH, presenting results of LN assessment and/or comparisons of hysterectomy results with and without lymph node assessment. This analysis was registered at PROSPERO International prospective register of systematic reviews (CRD42023443598). RESULTS: A total of 447 studies were initially identified through database searching. The current analysis includes 7 studies comprising 1791 atypical endometrial hyperplasia patients who underwent hysterectomy with lymph node assessment. The incidence of positive lymph nodes among those who had undergone any LN evaluation was found to be 1.1% (95% CI 0.3%-2%). The rate of positive LNs was 1.4% (95% CI 0.2%-1.9%) among those who had undergone specifically SLN. 319 (44.3%, 95% CI 34%-54.7%) patients of the patients initially diagnosed with EIN/AH (n = 699), were finally upgraded to EC diagnosis. Fifteen percent of the final EC diagnosed patients were treated with adjuvant treatment. No significant difference regarding complication rates was noticed. CONCLUSIONS: Our review indicates that the rate of metastatic LNs is <2% in patients undergoing surgical nodal evaluation for EIN/AH. However, the rate of complication for SLN mapping is low and may have an impact on postoperative therapy decisions in those diagnosed with malignancy.

BACKGROUND: Hysterectomy is a gynaecological surgical procedure in which the uterus is removed as a treatment for both malignant and benign gynaecological diseases. A hysterectomy is also performed to minimise risks in women with problems related to the uterus. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of reported hysterectomy and associated risk factors in Brazilian women aged 50 and older. METHODS: A cross-sectional study using data from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSI-Brazil) was conducted. A total of 5,293 women aged 50 and over who participated in the ELSI-Brazil study in 2015 and 2016 were included. The prevalence rate of hysterectomy was estimated and the main reasons for performing the surgery were identified. The bivariate analyses utilised the chi-square test, while multivariate analyses employed Poisson regression with a robust estimator. RESULTS: The reported prevalence of hysterectomy was 17.8%. The most prevalent reason for the surgery was the presence of uterine myoma. Significant and independent associations were observed in women aged 63 and older, married, having undergone preventive exams, hormonal treatment, had up to three deliveries and having a private health plan. CONCLUSION: The main objective of the study was achieved. The prevalence of hysterectomy in Brazilian women aged 50 and older was 17.8%. Significant associations were observed with participants' sociodemographic and clinical characteristics reinforcing the importance of considering the reproductive characteristics of women as indicators of health status.

OBJECTIVE: In 2016, the ESMO-ESGO-ESTRO consensus included LVSI (Lymph-vascular space invasion, LVSI) status as a risk stratification factor for stage I endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC) patients and as one of the indications for adjuvant therapy. Furthermore, LVSI is included in the new FIGO staging of endometrial cancer (EC) in 2023. However, the data contribution of the Chinese population in this regard is limited. The present study aimed to further comfirm the influence of LVSI on the prognosis of early-stage low-grade EEC in a fifteen-year retrospective Chinese cohort study. METHODS: This retrospective analysis cohort included 702 EEC patients who underwent TAH/BSO surgery, total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingooophorectomy in Peking University People's Hospital from 2006 to 2020. Patients were stratified based on LVSI expression status as: LVSI negative group and LVSI positive group. Clinical outcome measures related to LVSI, assessed with a univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model. RESULTS: 702 EEC patients with stage I and grade 1-2 were analyzed. 58 patients (8.3%) were LVSI-positive and 14 patients (2.0%) was relapse. Recurrence rates in LVSI-negative and LVSI-positive were 1.6% and 6.9%, respectively. 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate in LVSI-negative and LVSI-positive were 98.4% and 93.1%, respectively. These rates for 5-year overall (OS) survival in LVSI-negative were 98.9% while it was 94.8% in LVSI-positive. Multivariate analysis showed that LVSI is an independent risk factor for 5-year DFS (HR = 4.60, p = 0.010). LVSI has a similar result for 5-year OS(HR = 4.39, p = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS: LVSI is an independent predictor of relapse and poor prognosis in early-stage low-grade endometrioid endometrial cancer in the Chinese cohort.

Placenta accreta is a rare but serious placental attachment abnormality. The aim of this study is to analyze the epidemiological, clinical, para-clinical and evolutionary features of placenta accreta, to investigate the therapeutic management and to assess maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. We conducted a retrospective, descriptive study of patients with histologically confirmed placenta accreta in the obstetrics and gynaecology department of the Farhat Hached University Hospital in Sousse, over a 4-year period from 1st January 2015 to 31st December 2019. The epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic and evolutionary data were collected from patients´ medical records and operative reports. In our series, we identified 46 cases of placenta accreta. The average age of our patients was 35±4.61 years. Each of our patients had a scarred uterus. The average term of delivery was 34 weeks of amenorrhoea and the mode of delivery was caesarean section for all our patients. First-line hysterectomy was performed in 40 patients and conservative treatment in 6. Sixteen patients developed maternal complications. No maternal death was observed. Placenta accreta is a rare condition associated with significant maternal and foetal morbidity.

BACKGROUND: Associations between procedure volumes and outcomes can inform minimum volume standards and the regionalization of health services. Robot-assisted surgery continues to expand globally; however, data are limited regarding which hospitals should be using the technology. STUDY DESIGN: Using administrative health data for all residents of Ontario, Canada, this retrospective cohort study included adult patients who underwent a robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), total robotic hysterectomy (TRH), robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), or robotic portal lobectomy using 4 arms (RPL-4) between January 2010 and September 2021. Associations between yearly hospital volumes and 90-day major complications were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for patient characteristics and clustering at the level of the hospital. RESULTS: A total of 10,879 patients were included, with 7567, 1776, 724, and 812 undergoing a RARP, TRH, RAPN, and RPL-4, respectively. Yearly hospital volume was not associated with 90-day complications for any procedure. Doubling of yearly volume was associated with a 17-min decrease in operative time for RARP (95% confidence interval [CI] - 23 to - 10), 8-min decrease for RAPN (95% CI - 14 to - 2), 24-min decrease for RPL-4 (95% CI - 29 to - 19), and no significant change for TRH (- 7 min; 95% CI - 17 to 3). CONCLUSION: The risk of 90-day major complications does not appear to be higher in low volume hospitals; however, they may not be as efficient with operating room utilization. Careful case selection may have contributed to the lack of an observed association between volumes and complications.

OBJECTIVES: Minimally invasive surgery for treatment of gynecologic malignancies is associated with decreased pain, fewer complications, earlier return to activity, lower cost, and shorter hospital stays. Patients are often discharged the day of surgery, but occasionally stay overnight due to prolonged post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stays. The objective of this study was to identify risk factors for prolonged PACU length of stay (LOS). METHODS: This is a single institution retrospective review of patients who underwent minimally invasive hysterectomy for gynecologic cancer from 2019 to 2022 and had a hospital stay <24-h. The primary outcome was PACU LOS. Demographics, pre-operative diagnoses, and surgical characteristics were recorded. After Box-Cox transformation, linear regression was used to determine significant predictors of PACU LOS. RESULTS: For the 661 patients identified, median PACU LOS was 5.04 h (range 2.16-23.76 h). On univariate analysis, longer PACU LOS was associated with increased age (ρ = 0.106, p = 0.006), non-partnered status [mean difference (MD) = 0.019, p = 0.099], increased alcohol use (MD = 0.018, p = 0.102), increased Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score (ρ = 0.065, p = 0.097), and ASA class ≥3 (MD = 0.033, p = 0.002). Using multivariate linear regression, increased age (R2 = 0.0011, p = 0.043), non-partnered status (R2 = 0.0389, p < 0.001), and ASA class ≥3 (R2 = 0.0250, p = 0.023) were associated with increased PACU LOS. CONCLUSIONS: Identifying patients at risk for prolonged PACU LOS, including patients who are older, non-partnered, and have an ASA class ≥3, may allow for interventions to improve patient experience, better utilize hospital resources, decrease PACU overcrowding, and limit postoperative admissions and complications. The relationship between non-partnered status and PACU LOS is the most novel relationship identified in this study.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of patients diagnosed with stage IB2/IIA2 cervical squamous cell carcinoma who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) prior to radical hysterectomy compared to those who did not receive NACT before surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a multicenter study including data of 6 gynecological oncology departments. The study is approved from one of the institution's local ethics committee. Patients were stratified into two cohorts based on the receipt of NACT preceding their surgical intervention. Clinico-pathological factors and progression-free survival were analyzed. RESULTS: Totally 87 patients were included. Lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) was observed as 40% in the group receiving NACT, while it was 66.1% in the group not receiving NACT (p = 0.036). Deep stromal invasion (> 50%) was 56% in the group receiving NACT and 84.8% in the group not receiving NACT (p = 0.001). In the univariate analysis, application of NACT is statistically significant among the factors that would be associated with disease-free survival. Consequently, a multivariate analysis was conducted for progression-free survival, incorporating factors such as the depth of stromal invasion, the presence of LVSI, and the administration of NACT. Of these, only the administration of NACT emerged as an independent predictor associated with decreased progression-free survival. (RR:5.88; 95% CI: 1.63-21.25; p = 0.07). CONCLUSIONS: NACT shouldn't be used routinely in patients with stage IB2/IIA2 cervical cancer before radical surgery.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate changes in surgical procedures and patient outcomes of patients diagnosed with endometrial cancer (EC) at a German university hospital between 1998 and 2014. METHODS: A monocentric, retrospective review was conducted to identify patients diagnosed and treated with EC during the aforementioned period at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at the University Hospital Kiel, Germany. RESULTS: 303 patients were identified. Patient demographics, risk factors, histological subtypes and stages of EC remained consistent over time. The most common surgical procedure was total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) (81.9%). In 2011, the institution carried out its first total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) for EC, resulting in a significant increase in laparoscopic surgical procedures (2011-2014: N = 70; TAH 44.2%; TLH 51.4%). Although the total number of lymph node stagings remained consistent over time, there was a significant increase in the performance of simultaneous pelvic and para-aortic lymphonodectomy (LNE) compared to pelvic LNE alone (2.6 in 2001-2005 vs. 18.0% in 2011-2014, p ≤ 0.001). The duration of hospital stays significantly decreased over time, with a mean of 20.9 days in the first and 8.5 days in the last period. When comparing surgical procedures, TLHs resulted in significantly shorter postoperative stays with an average of 6.58 vs. 13.92 days for TAH. The surgical procedure performed did not affect 5-year overall survival rates in this study (84.9% for TAH and 85.3% for TLH, p = 0.85). CONCLUSIONS: Our retrospective single-center study demonstrates that laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer is oncologically safe and shortens hospital stays.

INTRODUCTION: Perioperative urinary tract infections (PUTIs) are common in the United States and are a significant contributor to high healthcare costs. There is a lack of large studies on the risk factors for PUTIs after total hysterectomy (TH). METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study using a national inpatient sample (NIS) of 445,380 patients from 2010 to 2019 to analyze the risk factors and annual incidence of PUTIs associated with TH perioperatively. RESULTS: PUTIs were found in 9087 patients overall, showing a 2.0% incidence. There were substantial differences in the incidence of PUTIs based on age group (P < 0.001). Between the two groups, there was consistently a significant difference in the type of insurance, hospital location, hospital bed size, and hospital type (P < 0.001). Patients with PUTIs exhibited a significantly higher number of comorbidities (P < 0.001). Unsurprisingly, patients with PUTIs had a longer median length of stay (5 days vs. 2 days; P < 0.001) and a higher in-hospital death rate (from 0.1 to 1.1%; P < 0.001). Thus, the overall hospitalization expenditures increased by $27,500 in the median ($60,426 vs. $32,926, P < 0.001) as PUTIs increased medical costs. Elective hospitalizations are less common in patients with PUTIs (66.8% vs. 87.6%; P < 0.001). According to multivariate logistic regression study, the following were risk variables for PUTIs following TH: over 45 years old; number of comorbidities (≥ 1); bed size of hospital (medium, large); teaching hospital; region of hospital(south, west); preoperative comorbidities (alcohol abuse, deficiency anemia, chronic blood loss anemia, congestive heart failure, diabetes, drug abuse, hypertension, hypothyroidism, lymphoma, fluid and electrolyte disorders, metastatic cancer, other neurological disorders, paralysis, peripheral vascular disorders, psychoses, pulmonary circulation disorders, renal failure, solid tumor without metastasis, valvular disease, weight loss); and complications (sepsis, acute myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, pneumonia, stroke, wound infection, wound rupture, hemorrhage, pulmonary embolism, blood transfusion, postoperative delirium). CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that identifying these risk factors can lead to improved preventive strategies and management of PUTIs in TH patients. Counseling should be done prior to surgery to reduce the incidence of PUTIs. THE MANUSCRIPT ADDS TO CURRENT KNOWLEDGE: In medical practice, the identification of risk factors can lead to improved patient prevention and treatment strategies. We conducted a retrospective study using a national inpatient sample (NIS) of 445,380 patients from 2010 to 2019 to analyze the risk factors and annual incidence of PUTIs associated with TH perioperatively. PUTIs were found in 9087 patients overall, showing a 2.0% incidence. We found that noted increased length of hospital stay, medical cost, number of pre-existing comorbidities, size of the hospital, teaching hospitals, and region to also a play a role in the risk of UTI's. CLINICAL TOPICS: Urogynecology.

AIM: To identify risk factors that associated with the occurrence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) within 30 days after hysterectomy among gynecological malignant tumor patients, and to explore the value of machine learning (ML) models in VTE occurrence prediction. METHODS: A total of 1087 patients between January 2019 and January 2022 with gynecological malignant tumors were included in this single-center retrospective study and were randomly divided into the training dataset (n = 870) and the test dataset (n = 217). Univariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors that associated with the occurrence of postoperative VTE in the training dataset. Machine learning models (including decision tree (DT) model and logistic regression (LR) model) to predict the occurrence of postoperative VTE were constructed and internally validated. RESULTS: The incidence of developing 30-day postoperative VTE was 6.0% (65/1087). Age, previous VTE, length of stay (LOS), tumor stage, operative time, surgical approach, lymphadenectomy (LND), intraoperative blood transfusion and gynecologic Caprini (G-Caprini) score were identified as risk factors for developing postoperative VTE in gynecological malignant tumor patients (p < 0.05). The AUCs of LR model and DT model for predicting VTE were 0.722 and 0.950, respectively. CONCLUSION: The ML models, especially the DT model, constructed in our study had excellent prediction value and shed light upon its further application in clinic practice.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility of further reducing the incidence of occult endometrial cancer in women undergoing hysterectomy for benign gynecological indications. METHODS: Patients who underwent hysterectomies for presumed benign gynecologic conditions at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were retrospectively identified. Patients with occult endometrial cancer, which was defined as endometrial cancer diagnosed on postoperative histopathology with no preoperative confirmed malignancy, were selected. RESULTS: 24/7558 (0.32%; 95% CI 0.20-0.47%) patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign indications had occult endometrial cancer. Asymptomatic patients with normal endometrial imaging all tended to have favorable pathology. Heavy menstrual bleeding was the most overlooked AUB pattern in the premenopausal group. In the postmenopausal group, all the patients with serous adenocarcinoma or G3 endometrioid adenocarcinoma histology/stage T1b disease/LVSI space invasion had a history of persistent or recurrent PMB ≥ 6 months and/or an intracavitary lesion > 20 mm in diameter. 3/4 of the samples of the postmenopausal patients did not have adequate endometrium for evaluation. CONCLUSION: To further reduce the incidence of occult endometrial cancer, physicians should focus on the patient's bleeding pattern and actively implement endometrial sampling whenever indicated. Transvaginal ultrasonography is a valuable preoperative evaluation. Hysteroscopy with directed biopsy is the preferred procedure in postmenopausal patients.

OBJECTIVE: Hysterectomy has been the historical gold standard final step in the treatment algorithm of adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) recommended by most North American colposcopy guidelines. AIS disproportionately affects young childbearing age women, therefore a fertility sparing treatment option is desirable. Our study examines the impact of conservative treatment of AIS with conization followed by serial surveillance. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was completed of patients treated for AIS from 2006 to 2020. Charts were identified by pathologic diagnosis of AIS on cervical and uterine specimens. Charts were excluded if AIS was not treated with conization, if AIS was not confirmed on initial conization specimen, or if invasive disease was found at initial conization. RESULTS: 121 patient charts were analyzed. Median age of patients at first conization and hysterectomy was 34.8 and 40.9, respectively. First conization was by Cold Knife Cone in 58% of patients, and by Loop Electrosurgical Excisional Procedure in 42% of patients. Median follow-up period in our study was 609 days. 5% of patients had recurrence, with only one patient who recurred as cancer. One case of recurrence had a positive initial conization margin. Median time to recurrence was 700 days. 47% of patients underwent eventual hysterectomy. Residual AIS was found in 23% of hysterectomy specimens. Adenocarcinoma was diagnosed on hysterectomy specimen in four patients. CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates the oncologic safety of treating AIS with conization and serial surveillance. Routine hysterectomy completed as a part of the AIS treatment algorithm, as in current clinical guidelines, is unnecessary.

OBJECTIVES: The surgical training of gynecologic oncology (GO) fellows is critical to providing excellent care to women with gynecologic cancers. We sought to evaluate changes in techniques and surgical volumes over an 18-year period among established GO fellowships across the US. METHODS: We emailed surveys to 30 GO programs that had trained fellows for at least 18 years. Surveys requested the number of surgical cases performed by a fellow for seventeen surgical procedures over each of five-time intervals. A One-Way Analysis of Variance was conducted for each procedure, averaged across institutions, to examine whether each procedure significantly changed over the 18-year span. RESULTS: 14 GO programs responded and were included in the analysis using SPSS. We observed a significant increase in the use of minimally invasive (MIS) procedures (robotic hysterectomy (p < .001), MIS pelvic (p = .001) and MIS paraaortic lymphadenectomy (p = .008). There was a concurrent significant decrease in corresponding "open" procedures. There was a significant decrease in all paraaortic lymphadenectomies. Complex procedures (such as bowel resection) remained stable. However, there was a wide variation in the number of cases reported with extremely small numbers for some critical procedures. CONCLUSIONS: The experience of GO fellows has shifted toward increased use of MIS. While these trends in care are appropriate, they do not diminish the need in many patients for complex open procedures. These findings should help spur the development of innovative training to maintain the ability to provide these core, specialty-defining procedures safely.

PURPOSE: Hysterectomy is associated with subsequent changes in circulating hormone levels, but the evidence of an association for tubal ligation is unclear. We evaluated whether circulating concentrations of androgens and estrogens differ by tubal ligation or hysterectomy status in postmenopausal women from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI)-Observational Study (OS). METHODS: Serum androgens and estrogens were measured in 920 postmenopausal women who did not use menopausal hormone therapy at the time of blood draw, of whom 139 self-reported a history of tubal ligation and 102 reported hysterectomy (with intact ovaries). Geometric mean hormone concentrations (GMs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) associated with a history of tubal ligation or hysterectomy (ever/never), as well as time since procedures, were estimated using adjusted linear regression with inverse probability of sampling weights to account for selection. RESULTS: Circulating levels of 12 androgen/androgen metabolites and 20 estrogen/estrogen metabolites did not differ by tubal ligation status. Among women reporting prior hysterectomy compared to women without hysterectomy, we observed lower levels of several androgens (e.g., testosterone (nmol/L): GMyes 0.46 [95% CI:0.37-0.57] vs. GMno 0.62 [95% CI:0.53-0.72]) and higher levels of estrogen metabolites, for example, 2-hydroxyestrone-3-methyl ether (GMyes 11.1 [95% CI:8.95-13.9] pmol/L vs. GMno 8.70 [95% CI:7.38-10.3]) and 4-methoxyestrone (GMyes 6.50 [95% CI:5.05-8.37] vs. GMno 4.92 [95% CI:4.00-6.05]). CONCLUSION: While we did not observe associations between prior tubal ligation and postmenopausal circulating hormone levels, our findings support that prior hysterectomy was associated with lower circulating testosterone levels and higher levels of some estrogen metabolites, which may have implications for future hormone-related disease risks.
