[Infiltrative endometriosis with ureteral lesion a clinical case of interaction between gynecologist and a urologist in diagnostics, surgical treatment and follow-up].

The article is focused on the problem of diagnosis and surgical treatment of infiltrative forms of endometriosis with lesions of both internal genitalia and urinary tract. A clinical observation of a young woman who underwent a robot-assisted operation on the internal genitals and organs of the urinary system is given. The article emphasizes the need for complete clinical examination in women with suspected endometriosis. The young age of patients, even the absence of bright clinic signs or absence of a long anamnesis of the disease should not exclude the possibility of severe case of endometriosis and the possibility of a combined lesions of pelvic organs. If infiltrative endometriosis is detected, the patients treatment should be carried out in a specialized hospital using modern surgical technologies.

[An interaction between an obstetrician-gynecologist and a urologist in the gynecological practice].

The article is devoted to the interaction of a gynecologist and a urologist in a gynecological hospital, based on the experience of the gynecological department at the Clinic of obstetrics and gynecology of the Clinical Center of Sechenov University. The most common clinical scenarios were identified when the participation of a urologist in evaluation and treatment is urgently needed, including large pelvis mass, endometriosis with an involvement of pelvic organs, genital prolapse, small pelvis adhesions as a result of previous surgical procedures and postoperative urinary disorders. A close interaction between two specialties, which are dedicated to pelvic organs disorders, namely gynecology and urology, is extremely popular in modern clinical practice and allows to significantly reduce the number of intra- and postoperative complications, carry out a comprehensive examination and determine individual treatment tactics in a gynecological hospital, which increases quality of medical care.

[Virilizing ovarian tumor: the challenges of differential diagnosis].

SertoliLeydig cell tumor is a rather rare type of ovarian neoplasms belonging to the group of sex cordstromal tumors. This malignancy is characterized by androgen overproduction, which results in the so-called virilization and can be accompanied by various metabolic disorders such as abdominal obesity, disturbances of carbohydrate and protein metabolism, and high blood pressure. During differential diagnosis, it is important to identify the source of androgen overproduction. An androgen-secreting ovarian tumor needs to be differentiated from androgen-secreting adrenal tumor, ovarian stromal thecomatosis (hyperthecosis), and endogenous hypercorticism (the Cushings syndrome). In most cases, the SertoliLeydig cell tumor is associated with DICER1 mutation carriership. If a patient is found to carry the DICER1 mutation, patients relatives need to undergo genetic testing as the individuals with mutations in this gene have an elevated risk of developing a broad range of benign and malignant tumors (most of these tumors are relatively rare in the overall population). The awareness of this rare ovarian neoplasm among medical specialists (obstetriciansgynecologists, endocrinologists, and oncologists) is supposed to ensure timely diagnosis and adequate treatment of this disease.
