RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare needleless mini-slings placed in a retropubic (U-shape) or trans-obturator (hammock-shape) configuration for treating stress urinary incontinence at 60th month. METHODS: All surgeries, conducted by a senior surgeon, involved objective and subjective assessments preoperatively and at 6, 12, 18, and 60 months postoperatively using cough-stress tests, ICIQ-SF, PGI-I, and a Likert scale. RESULTS: After 60 months, no significant differences were found in cure rates, mesh complications, or reinterventions between U-shaped and hammock-shaped groups. However, a significant decrease in cure rates was observed at 18 and 60 months in both groups. Notable differences in ICIQ-SF, Likert scale, and PGI-I scores were seen in the hammock-shaped group, while the U-shaped group showed differences in ICIQ-SF and PGI-I scores, but not in the Likert scale. CONCLUSION: Given the lack of significant differences, asserting the superiority of either retropubic (U-shape) or transobturatorly (hammock-shape) needleless mini-slings for treating stress urinary incontinence is challenging.

RESUMO

RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the embryonic profiles and oocyte maturation dynamics in patients with tubulin beta eight class VIII (TUBB8) mutations leading to oocyte maturation abnormalities (OMAS), and are pregnancies possible in this population? DESIGN: A prospective cohort study was undertaken in a private fertility clinic between January 2019 and December 2022. Whole-exome genomic studies (WES) were performed to detect mutation types. In-vitro maturation (IVM) was compared in 18 subjects: nine with TUBB8 mutations, and nine without TUBB8 mutations to act as the control group. The distributions of oocyte maturation and embryonic development profiles were recorded. IVF and IVM outcomes of the 18 cases were evaluated. The primary outcomes were the embryonic profiles and maturation dynamics of oocytes derived from IVF or IVM in women as related to TUBB8 mutations. RESULTS: Mutations were detected in 52 of 89 (58.4%) women who underwent WES analysis. Twelve TUBB8 mutations were detected in nine women (10.1%) with OMAS. Seven novel TUBB8 mutations were noted. Two pregnancies were obtained in women with c.535 G>A TUBB8 mutations. When comparing IVM outcomes between women with and without TUBB8 mutations, there were no differences in oocyte, embryo or pregnancy parameters (P>0.05 in all cases). CONCLUSIONS: It is clear that further TUBB8 mutations which cause oocyte or embryonic arrest will be detected in future. Although biochemical or ectopic pregnancies may be possible in some of these women, no live births or ongoing pregnancies have been reported to date.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Women's perceived satisfaction from their own genital appearance is linked to genital image and sexual esteem. A comprehensive and easy to use scale to measure self-image was scarce in the literature. It was aimed in the present study to complement cross-culturally adapted and validated into Turkish version of the Female Genital Self-Image Scale (FGSIS) and to assess its psychometric properties. METHODS: After cross-cultural adaptation, the Turkish version of the FGSI, Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised (FSDS-R), and Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) were administered to 461 female participants. Content/face validity, exploratory, and confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency, and reliability were appropriately assessed. Predefined and specific hypotheses were formulated for construct validity. RESULTS: Our findings indicated excellent content/face validity, sufficient internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha 0.818), and test-retest reliability [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) 0.951]. Construct validity was demonstrated by proving the hypothesis that participants who have performed at least one vaginal/clitoral masturbation for the last month reported significantly higher FGSIS scores compared with those who abstained (Z -6.37, p < 0.001). Factor analyses formed one factor structure. In the proposed two-factor construct, all seven items demonstrated good to high correlations with their subdomains and lower correlations with the other domain, indicating sufficient convergent validity. CONCLUSIONS: The FGSIS was successfully validated for use in the Turkish population. The scale exhibited strong psychometric properties to assess perceived female genital image. It might be reliably used in genital cosmetic surgeries and in a variety of gynecologic conditions.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: There is a shortage of reliable data on the efficiency of the under-investigated mini-slings to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI). We aimed to compare the effectiveness of the single-incision needleless mini-sling (SIMS) with the transobturator inside-out mid-urethral sling (TOT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two hundred one women with clinically proven SUI were included in this single-center prospective randomized trial. The patients were randomly allocated to the groups. All surgeries were done by the same single surgeon. Examinations were done by one other blinded surgeon. The patients were followed up for 24 months. Objective cure was defined as the absence of SUI and negative cough-stress test. Subjective cure was defined as no stress leakage of urine after surgery in a validated questionnaire. Failure of the surgery was defined as the need for reoperation. Every complaint was categorized by the IUGA/ICS Classification of Prosthesis-related Complications. RESULTS: The objective (85.4% versus 89.9%, p = 0.362) and subjective (87.6% versus 89.9%, p = 0.636) cure rates were similar with the TOT and SIMS at the postoperative month 24, respectively. The mesh exposure ≤ 1 cm rate was 3.4% for both groups, and the mesh exposure > 1 cm rate was 2.2% for both groups. Overall failure rates were 3.4% and 2.2% for the TOT and SIMS group, respectively. No viscus organ perforation was noted. Complications with the SIMS procedure were less painful compared with TOT (p = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS: Single-incision needleless mini-slings exhibited similar cure rates as the trans-obturator mid-urethral slings from both the patient and clinician points of view in 24 months of follow-up. Mini-slings resulted in significantly less postoperative pain than trans-obturator mid-urethral slings.

RESUMO

The aim of this study is to present the clinical outcomes of a random start, a spontaneous folliculogenesis protocol versus Clomiphene Citrate and Gonadotropin treatment in women with occult premature ovarian insufficiency. Women underwent treatment between 1 February 2009, and 30 May 2016. 41 women were treated with the random start protocol while 48 cases received ovarian stimulation with clomiphene and gonadotropins. All included cases met the criteria of 4 months of oligo-ovulation, follicular-stimulating hormone levels over 30 IU/L and anti-Mullerian hormone levels below 0.30 ng/mL. The random start protocol involved following the subjects for up to 6 months until spontaneous folliculogenesis occurred. The mean number of oocytes collected, mature oocytes, fertilized oocytes, and grade II embryos were significantly higher in the random start protocol (p < .05). The doses of gonadotropin administration and hCG were significantly lower in the random start protocol (p < .05). The clinical pregnancy and live birth rates were significantly higher in the random start protocol (p < .05). Likely stimulation is of little benefit in women with occult premature ovarian insufficiency. Observation while waiting for spontaneous folliculogenesis results in better outcomes, and less oocyte collections.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of needleless mini-sling placed either retropubic (U-shape) or trans-obturator (hammock-shape) to treat stress urinary incontinence. SETTING: One hundred and twenty six women were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive hammock-shaped or U-shaped of Contasure-NDL. METHODS: All surgical procedures were performed by one senior surgeon experienced in anti-incontinence surgery with mesh. Cough-stress test was considered for objective outcome. Subjective outcomes consisted of International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) and three-item Likert scale to measure satisfaction. Assessments were performed preoperatively and at postoperative 6th, 12th and 18th month. RESULTS: The objective cure rates at postoperative 6th and 12th month were significantly lower in U-shape group compared to hammock-shape group (85.4 vs. 96.4%; p = 0.034) and was comparable with hammock-shape group at 18th month postoperative (90.2 vs. 96.4%, respectively; p = 0.216). The subjective cure rates at postoperative 6th, 12th and 18th month were similar between groups (90.2/90.2/100% vs. 96.4/96.4/96.4%, respectively; p > 0.05). Median of total ICIQ-SF scores was significantly lower in hammock-shaped group (1.62 ± 2.92) compared to U-shape (3.80 ± 2.64) at 18th month (p < 0.001). The rate of patients reported as very satisfied or satisfied to the Likert scale was 90.2% in U-shape group and 96.4% in hammock group. Patients' responses to PGI-I were majorly distributed to "much better" and "very much better" with a mean score of 1.93 ± 2 in U-shape and 1.33 ± 1 in hammock group at 18th month of follow-up (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: U-shape placement of needleless single-incision mini-sling mimicking the retropubic route did not satisfy in achieving the patient's goal when compared to hammock-shape placement.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Our aim is to evaluate the laboratory results and proteinuria levels of preeclamptic women and their relation-ships to maternal and fetal outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred preeclamptic pregnant women who gave birth in our clinic between 2013 and 2015 were included in our study retrospectively. The data collected from the patients included gestational week, age, gravidity, parity, abortus history, blood pressure, biochemical parameters, delivery method, maternal hospitalization time, cesarean indication, complications, blood products required, plasmapheresis use and dialysis need. The details about the newborns were recorded retrospectively. The relationships between preeclampsia signs and maternal and neonatal out-comes were analyzed. The protein amounts were analyzed via 24-hour collected urine analyses and spot urine analyses. RESULTS: A statistically significant positive correlation was observed between neonatal intensive care unit needs and pro-teinuria levels. Fetal growth restriction, respiratory distress syndrome and sepsis were observed as the level of proteinuria increased, but the result was not statistically significant. Eclampsia was observed only in patients with massive proteinuria, and it was statistically significant. An increase in cesarean sections, placental abruptions, antihypertensive drug needs and blood product replacement rates was observed as the amount of proteinuria increased in preeclamptic women, but the results were not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: The severity of preeclampsia cannot be determined by the level of proteinuria. However, when massive proteinuria is detected, the clinician should be more cautious about maternal and fetal complications.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determined the predictive value of maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) as a marker for adverse pregnancy outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study was carried out at Dr. Zekai Tahir Burak Women's Health Education and Research Hospital between 2009 and 2010. This study included a total of 1,177 pregnant women, including 170 in the study group and 1,007 in the control group. Pregnancy outcomes and characteristics were analyzed with regard to the MSAFP value. RESULTS: Gestational week, birth weight and APGAR scores were significantly lower in the elevated MSAFP group (p < 0.001). Adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as preterm delivery, preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), oligohydramnios and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) rates were increased in the elevated MSAFP group. CONCLUSIONS: Although ultrasound outweighs as a screening method for neural tube defects and non-invasive prenatal testing outweighs for aneuploidy screening MSAFP level in the second trimester is still an important predictor for poor maternal/fetal outcomes.

RESUMO

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle outcomes, serum and follicular fluid (FF) levels of leptin and ghrelin. Material and methods: Forty-four women who underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles (ICSI) were enrolled in the study. On the third day (D3) of the menstrual cycle, venous blood samples were drawn for serum measurements of leptin and ghrelin. The follicular fluid (FF) and the corresponding oocyte were obtained from a single dominant preovulatory follicle at the time of oocyte pick-up. The FF and D3 serum leptin and ghrelin concentrations were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The relationship between pregnancy rate and serum, follicular fluid levels of leptin and ghrelin were analyzed. Results: Of the 44 cases included, nineteen achieved clinical pregnancy (43.18%). Follicular fluid ghrelin levels were significantly lower in the pregnant group than non-pregnant group (p < 0.05) With respect to FF leptin, there was no statistically significant differences between the pregnant and non-pregnant women (p > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in D3 serum ghrelin between pregnant and non-pregnant groups (p > 0.05). However, D3 serum leptin levels were significantly lower in pregnant women than non-pregnant women (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Lower ghrelin levels in the follicular fluid were associated with higher pregnancy rates. Also, D3 serum leptin levels were inversely correlated with clinical pregnancy rates. These findings support the potential role of these molecules on IVF outcomes.

RESUMO

Objective: This study aims to investigate the developmental potential of immature oocytes and questions whether unstimulated in vitro maturation (IVM) can be used as a treatment in women with oocyte maturation abnormalities. Material and Methods: This cohort study was conducted between September 2019 and December 2022, and it included 12 women who underwent unstimulated, non-hCG priming IVM.Oocytes were incubated in in vitro maturation medium for 26-48 hours and evaluated to compare their maturation profiles with the immature oocytes retrieved from the same patients in their previous IVF cycles. Results: Among the twelve women in the study, eleven (91.6%) underwent whole exome sequencing (WES) analysis. Of these, ten women presented a total of 18 mutations, excluding Case 1, which had no previous mutation analysis. Of the mutations identified, 9 (50%) were located in the FSHR gene, 5 (27.8%) in the TUBB8 gene, 1 (5.6%) in the ZP1 gene, 1 (5.6%) in the SLFN14 gene, 1 (5.6%) in the AR gene, and 1 (5.6%) in the STEAP3 gene. Apart from one woman with resistant ovary syndrome,none of the women treated with unstimulated in vitro maturation had oocyte maturation . Remarkably, the only patient to achieve oocyte maturation in an unstimulated IVM cycle was Case 11, who had ROS and a single FSHR mutation. Conclusion: Unstimulated non hCG primed IVM has no value in the treatment of OMAS, except in cases with resistant ovary syndrome. However this study led our team to develop novel treatment options based on physiological mechanisms for some subtypes and supraphysiological approach for other subtypes of oocyte maturation abnormalities.

RESUMO

Objectives: The safety of cesarean myomectomy has been proven by previous studies. Our study aimed to reveal the long-term perinatal, obstetric, and surgical outcomes of cesarean myomectomy (CM) by comparing different CM techniques. Material and methods: This retrospective multicentric case-control study involved 7 hospitals and included 226 singleton pregnancies that underwent repeated cesarean section (CS) between 2015 and 2020. Among these pregnancies, 113 of 226 cases had CM (Group A), and 113 had only CS (Group B). Of the 113 cases in which CM was performed, 58 underwent endometrial myomectomy (EM) (Subgroup A1) and 55 underwent serosal myomectomy (SM) (Subgroup A2). The groups were compared in terms of obstetric, perinatal, and surgical outcomes, and fibroid recurrence, myomectomy scar healing rate, and adhesion formation were noted. Results: There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of maternal age, body mass index, gravidity, parity, and fibroid diameter in previous CS (p > 0.05). In the perinatal and obstetric evaluation of the groups, there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of neonatal weight, Apgar score, fetal growth restriction, preterm premature rupture of membranes, preterm delivery, hypertension in pregnancy, and diabetes mellitus (p > 0.05). The fibroid recurrence rate was 28.3%, and the myomectomy scar good healing rate was 99.1%. There was no difference between the groups in terms of CS duration, preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin levels, perioperative blood transfusion rates, febrile morbidity, and prolonged hospitalization (p > 0.05). In terms of adhesion formation, although the adhesion rate of the SM group was higher than that of the EM group, no statistically significant difference was detected between the groups. Conclusion: This study showed that in pregnancies following CM, obstetrical, perinatal, and surgical outcomes were unaffected. Obstetricians can safely use CM, either the trans-endometrial or serosal technique, as it is a safe and effective method with long-term results.

RESUMO

Objective: To review the outcomes of in vitro maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) in women with empty follicle syndrome (EFS). The study evaluated the genetic underpinnings of EFS by analyzing mutations. Materials and Methods: This retrospective case series involving 17 women with EFS over at least 2 IVF cycles was conducted. The study also employed whole-exome sequencing to analyze the genetic mutations. The treatment approaches included letrozole-primed IVM, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG)-primed IVM, and conventional IVF. Results: The average female age was 31.5±4.6 years, and the duration of infertility was 7.3±3.5 years. Four patients underwent IVF. IVM oocyte collections yielded oocytes in 12 of 13 subjects. Of these, 75% (9/12) yielded MII oocytes after 48 h of IVM media incubation. Six subjects had fertilized embryos, resulting in a 40.9% intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) fertilization rate (9 embryos/22 MII oocytes). Genetic analysis revealed mutations in seven patients. This study demonstrated the partial efficacy of letrozole-primed IVM plus growth hormone and FSH-hCG primed IVM protocols. No pregnancies or live births were recorded after IVM. One ongoing pregnancy post-IVF and one spontaneous live birth were observed. Conclusion: Inter-cycle variabilities were observed in women with oocyte maturation abnormalities (OMAs). Almost all patients with EFS had oocytes collected during IVM following IVF. These oocytes have limited potential for maturation, fertilization, and live birth, as demonstrated by the low rates observed after IVM culture and ICSI. These conditions are observed in OMAs due to defects in the oocyte machinery. The proposed flowchart provides a comprehensive classification approach for various forms of EFS.

RESUMO

Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the effects of two different uterine closure techniques, used during cesarean section (CS) operations on isthmocele formation. Material and Methods: This prospective, randomized, controlled study was performed on 138 patients in a university hospital between the dates December 2016 and August 2017. Uterine closures were performed using the double-layer, far-far-near-near (FFNN) unlocked technique, in the study group (n = 70) and using a single-layer continuous locked (SLL) technique in the control group (n = 68). The presence of isthmocele, residual myometrial thickness (RMT), postmenstrual spotting, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain and uterus position were evaluated in postoperative sixth month. Results: Isthmocele formation was less frequent and RMT was greater in the study group when compared to the control group (p < 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). Duration of operation, amount of blood loss and additional hemostatic suture requirement were not significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.221, p = 0.520 and p = 0.930, respectively). Postmenstrual spotting was less common in FFNN group, while the rates of chronic pelvic pain and dysmenorrhea were not significantly different between the groups (p = 0.002, p = 0.205 and p = 0.490, respectively). Conclusion: The findings of the present study demonstrate that uterine closure using the FFNN technique is beneficial in terms of providing protection from isthmocele formation and ensuring sufficient RMT. This method has the potential to become the optimal uterine closure technique, but the findings of the present study should be supported by large-scale studies in the future.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Many surgeons use uterine manipulator (UM) during laparoscopic hysterectomy (LH). In this study, we aimed to compare the outcomes of LH operations performed by using partially reusable UM with the articulated system (artUM) and disposable (dUM) UM without articulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 99 patients underwent the LH operation. This study was carried out with 35 of those 99 Caucasian patients who met the inclusion criteria. Group 1 consisted for 7 LH operations using the articulated RUMI® II/KOH-Efficient™ (Cooper Surgical, Trumbull, CT, USA) system (artUM), while Group II consisted of 28 patients using old-type V Care®(ConMed Endosurgery, Utica, New York, USA) dUM as UM. RESULTS: Mean operation time was found to be 157.1 ± 42.0 min. The operation time was found statistically longer in Group 1, consisted of artUM used patients (P = 0.006 and P < 0.05). No statistically significant difference was found between two groups in terms of surgical results such as, delta hemoglobin value (P = 0.483 and P < 0.05), length of hospital stay (P = 0.138 and P < 0.05), and postoperative maximum body temperature (P = 0.724 and P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The UM type did not alter the surgical outcomes except the operating time in our study. According to our results, the surgical technique is a more significant variable than instruments used in LH for normal size uterus. Further prospective, large-scale studies comparing various UM systems are mandatory.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of gonadotropin-stimulated and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) -primed in vitro oocyte maturation (IVM) in cases of repeated in vitro fertilization (IVF) failure due to various forms of oocyte maturation arrest (OMA). METHODS: Retrospective cohort study. RESULTS: In all, 63 women with IVF failure due to OMA were evaluated in this study. According to the Hatirnaz & Dahan classification, 11 (17.5%) women were OMA type 1, 22 (34.9%) were OMA type 2, 0 were OMA type 3, 11 (17.5%) were OMA type 4, and 19 women were OMA type 5 (30.1%). Fewer oocytes were retrieved in the IVM than in the IVF cycles. No embryos were produced from oocytes collected in the IVM cycles of women with OMA types 1, 2, and 4. In the OMA type 5 group, 9 (47.4%) day 2 embryos and 6 (31.6%) day 3 embryos were obtained. The difference between the groups was statistically significant (P = 0.001, P = 0.002, respectively). Single day 3 embryo transfer was performed for the six patients with OMA type 5 but no clinical pregnancies occurred. CONCLUSIONS: Follicle-stimulating hormone-stimulated and hCG-primed IVM does not improve oocyte maturation, developmental potential, or pregnancy rates of women with OMA. Future studies directed to re-establishing normal cytoskeletal architecture and machinery, and resumption of meiosis may be beneficial for obtaining mature oocytes.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Morbidly adherent placenta (MAP) is one of leading causes of maternal mortality, with an increasing rate because of repeated cesarean sections (CS). The primary objective of this study is to compare two techniques of skin and uterine incisions in patients with MAP, evaluating the maternal fetal impact of the two methods. Retrospective multicentric cohort study. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 116 women with MAP diagnosis were enrolled and divided in two groups. Group one, comprised of 81 patients, abdominal entry was performed by Pfannenstiel skin incision plus an upper transverse lower uterine segment (LUS) incision (transverse-transverse), which was 2-3 cm above the MAP border, with the uterus in the abdomen. In group two, comprised of 35 patients, abdominal entry was performed by an infra-umbilical midline abdominal incision, by vertical-vertical technique, and the pregnant uterus was incised by a midline incision (vertical) from the fundus till the border of the MAP. Total surgery time, blood loss, blood product consumption, total hospital stay, cosmetic outcomes, and postoperative complications were investigated. RESULTS: Total time of surgery was significantly shorter in group 1 (p < 0.05). Intraoperative blood loss was higher in group 2. Difference between preoperative and postoperative Hb and Htc levels were 3.30 ± 1.04 and 12.99 ± 5.07 respectively (p = 0.012; p = 0.033). The use of erythrocyte suspension (ES), fresh frozen plasma (FFP), and cryoprecipitate and thrombocyte suspension (TS) were found to be significantly lower in patients of group 1than vertical-vertical group (p = 0.008, p = 0.009, p = 0.001, p = 0.001, respectively). There was no difference in terms of total length of hospital stay between groups. CONCLUSIONS: In a subgroup of patients diagnosed for MAP, the transverse-transverse incision resulted in less bleeding, less blood and blood product use, and had better cosmetic results than vertical-vertical incision. Moreover, the total time of surgery, crucial for MAP patients, seems to be shorter also in transverse-transverse incision than in vertical-vertical incision.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This multi-center study aims to determine the efficiency and safety of endometrial myomectomy (EM) for the removal of uterine fibroids during cesarean section (CS). METHODS: Retrospective review of 360 women diagnosed for fibroids during pregnancy. They all delivered by CS between 2014 and 2019. The study groups included 118 women who only underwent EM, 120 women who only had subserosal myomectomy by traditional technique and 122 women with fibroids who decided to avoid cesarean myomectomy, as control group. They were analyzed and compared the surgical outcomes. RESULTS: The EM, subserosal myomectomy and control groups were statistically (p > 0.05) similar for to age, body mass index (BMI), gravidity, parity, gestational age at delivery, indications for CS, number of excised fibroids, size of the largest myoma. Postoperative hemoglobin values and ? (?) hemoglobin concentrations were lower in SM group (10.39gr/dl vs 9.98 gr/dl vs 10.19 - 1.44 gr/dl vs 1.90 gr/dl vs 1.35; p = 0.047, p = 0.021; respectively) Hybrid fibroids were significantly more frequent in the EM group than subserosal myomectomy and control groups (respectively, 33.1% vs 23.3% vs 27.0%, p = 0.002). Surgery time was significantly longer in the subserosal myomectomy group than EM and control groups (respectively, 46.53 min vs 37.88 min vs 33.86 min, p = 0.001). Myomectomy took significantly longer time in the subserosal myomectomy than EM group (13.75 min vs 8.17 min, p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Endometrial myomectomy is a feasible choice for treatment of fibroids during CS, and, basing on our results could be an alternative to traditional cesarean subserosal myomectomy.

RESUMO

Purpose: We conducted a prospective randomized controlled trial to compare postoperative urinary catheter removal 2 versus 12 h after elective cesarean section in terms of irritative symptoms, first void time, incidence of urinary tract infection, postoperative mobilization time, and hospitalization time.Methods: A total of 134 women admitted to Duzce University Hospital for primary or recurrent elective cesarean section were randomized into two groups. A total of 62 women were enrolled in the early group, with indwelling catheter removal 2 h after cesarean section; 74 women were enrolled in the delayed group, with catheter removal 12 h after the cesarean section. The groups were prospectively compared in terms of irritative urinary symptoms, bacteriuria, hematuria, length of hospital stay, and mobilization time.Results: Urinary frequency (p = .04), microscopic hematuria incidence (p = .04), postoperative mobilization time (p = .01), and length of hospital stay (p = .009) were significantly lower in the early group than in the delayed group. There were no significant differences in terms of bacteruria, urinary retention, dysuria, and first postoperative voiding time.Conclusions: Early removal of urinary catheters after elective cesarean section is associated with reduced mobilization time and hospital stay.

RESUMO

Purpose: We compared the efficacy of modified Shirodkar and McDonald rescue cerclage techniques in women with singleton pregnancies.Methods: The study sample included 47 women who presented at two tertiary hospitals in Turkey from 2008 to 2017 and underwent rescue cerclage due to cervical incompetence and cervical dilatation with fetal membranes prolapsed into the vagina. The outcomes were compared by cerclage technique used, Shirodkar or McDonald.Results: The McDonald cerclage was applied in 27 cases, and modified Shirodkar cerclage in 20 cases. A longer cerclage-to-birth interval (83.8 ± 37.6 vs. 63.7 ± 38.9 days) and later gestational age at delivery (33 vs. 31 weeks) were observed with the Shirodkar cerclage, although these differences were not statistically significant (p = .08 and .63, respectively). Both groups had similar delivery rates after 28, 32, and 37 weeks (p = .20, .15, and .25, respectively), whereas the modified Shirodkar technique resulted in a higher rate of live births although these differences were not statistically significant (85% vs. 63%, p = .09).Conclusion: The effects of the McDonald and modified Shirodkar cerclage procedures on prolonging pregnancy and improving the live birth rate were similar. Therefore, either technique can be applied to prevent neonatal loss due to advanced prematurity.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To provide baseline data for the anatomy of the external female genitalia and to investigate the correlation between those measurements and sexual function and genital perception. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective cohort study consisted of 208 healthy premenopausal women. The Female Sexual Function index (FSFI) and the Female Genital Self-image scale (FGSIS) questionnaires were administered. Participants were divided into two groups according to their female sexual dysfunction (FSD) status. External genital measurements and anterior and posterior vaginal length were measured. RESULTS: The external female genital measurements were (cm, mean ± standard deviation): clitoral prepuce length 2.05±0.48; clitoral glans length 0.87±0.21; clitoral glans width 0.60±0.15; clitoris to urethra 2.24±0.55; anterior fornix depth 7.75±0.92; posterior fornix depth 9.25±0.75; labia minora width, right 2.12±0.86, left 2.20±0.96. A weak negative correlation was found between total FGSIS scores and clitoral prepuce length (p=0.01, r=-0.17), whereas a weak positive correlation was seen between total FGSIS scores and anterior-posterior vaginal lengths (p=0.04, r=0.13; p=0.02, r=0.15, respectively). No statistically significant difference was found between the genital measurements of participants with FSD (n=82, 39.4%) and those without FSD (n=126, 60.6%), and the total FSFI scores and orgasm subdomain scores. CONCLUSION: The female genital measurements were found to be distributed over a wide range. Although the relationship between genital measurements and genital perception varied, no significant relationship was found between genital measurements and sexual functions or orgasm. These findings suggest that a more cautious approach should be taken towards genital surgeries for cosmetic purposes.
