A case of bilateral tubal pregnancy
Publication date: Available online 6 July 2017 Source:Gynecology and Minimally Invasive Therapy Author(s): Ayano Funamizu, Atsushi Fukui, Rie Fukuhara, Asami Kobayashi, Hitomi Chiba, Yukiko Matsumura, Asami Ito, Hideki Mizunuma Bilateral tubal pregnancy is very rare and occurs in only 1 out of every 200,000 spontaneous pregnancies. In this case, a 29-year-old woman with a history of primary infertility underwent treatment with human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG)-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and became pregnant. A gestational sac (GS) was not detected in the uterus and transvaginal ultrasonography (USG) rev...

Ureteral stenosis due to DIE (deep infiltrating endometriosis) with difficulty in treatment: Case report and brief literature review
We reported that a 49-year-old woman presented with chronic pelvic pain due to severe dysmenorrhea and without any urological symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) identified a 7 cm endometrioma compressing and infiltrating the rectal wall, and chronic left hydronephrosis. Isotope renogram decreased 14% function in the left kidney. We performed adhesiolysis, freeing of the uterus and appendages, hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy. However, we performed only to resect a part of left deep infiltrating endometriosis with ureteral involvement to avoid ureteral injury. After surgery, hydronephrosis was improved and thos...

A three-step evaluation for safer curettage treatment of cesarean scar pregnancy
Publication date: August 2017 Source:Gynecology and Minimally Invasive Therapy, Volume 6, Issue 3 Author(s): Tomomi Matsushita, Shin Takenaka, Makoto Nakabayashi, Koichi Ogawa, Akihiko Sekizawa Dilation and curettage is one of the treatment options for cesarean scar pregnancy, however, it sometimes requires a salvage therapy. Few reports discuss the methods of evaluating cesarean scar pregnancy before therapeutic procedures. We aimed to present a case study in which a three-step approach using a combination of preoperational sonohysterography, hysteroscopy, and laparoscopy was performed to evaluate cesarean scar pre...

Single-port laparoscopic neosalpingostomy for hydrosalpinx
Conclusion SP-LN might be a feasible and safe alternative in women with hydrosalpinx. However, further study is needed to confirm this preliminary result and to explore the obstetric outcomes following SP-LN. (Source: Gynecology and Minimally Invasive Therapy)

A false positive fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography diagnosis of pelvic lymph node recurrence following surgical treatment of Stage 1 endometrial cancer —a case report
Publication date: Available online 10 March 2017 Source:Gynecology and Minimally Invasive Therapy Author(s): Wu Shun Felix Wong A 47 year old patient with a G3, FIGO stage 1A endometrial cancer was treated by hysterectomy. Her two ovaries were conserved because of the pre-operative diagnosis of endocervical cancer. On follow up PET-CT follow up investigation, she had a benign ovarian corpus luteal cyst mistaken as a metastatic pelvic lymph node which was later removed and proven benign histologically. This paper is to raise the clinical awareness of possible false positive PET finding from a benign ovarian cyst, such th...

Laparoscopic retrieval of a foreign body (broken surgical knife) from retroperitoneal space: An interesting case
We present a rare and interesting case, of a retrieval of a broken surgical knife blade, from the retroperitoneal space, through laparoscopic approach by a gynecology endoscopist. A 40-year-old man underwent open lumbar discectomy surgery, when the surgical knife blade inadvertently broke, and was retained in the disc space. The broken blade could not be removed during the initial surgery. A second attempt was made to retrieve it; however, it migrated further anteriorly into the retroperitoneal space. Subsequently, a gynecology endoscopist was called in, who successfully retrieved the broken blade from the retroperitoneal ...

Useful technique for submucous myomectomy under direct transcervical resectoscope observation
We present a case in which this operative procedure was used to remove an SMM with Figure and Video. The benefits of this procedure are enormous and could be immeasurably important to hysteroscopists and gynecologists. (Source: Gynecology and Minimally Invasive Therapy)

Effective thermal destruction of residual tubal epithelium using an advanced sealing device in opportunistic salpingectomy: A randomized trial
Conclusion We observed that a high incidence of residual TE and efficacious cauterization-induced thermal destruction was achieved following 10 seconds of additional cauterization. These results suggest that additional cauterization of the uterine cornu using the sealing device effectively destroys residual TE after salpingectomy.
