Filter by:The authors aimed to detect inflammatory marker changes in two natural orifice hysterectomies: single-port laparoscopic hysterectomy (SLH) and vaginal hysterectomy (VH). Between 2018 and 2019, data obtained from patients in the SLH and VH groups were reviewed retrospectively. The preoperative and postoperative hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HB), white blood cell (WBC), platelet (PLR), and neutrophil-lymphocyte (NLR) ratios and values were compared as well as the demographic characteristics of the patients.
This retrospective study was conducted in the obstetrics and gynecology clinic at Derince Training and Research Hospital. The study group was identified as patients who underwent hysterectomy between 2018 and 2019. Our hospital is a 50-bed tertiary reference center where approximately 3,500 births per year occur, and about 500 gynecological-oncological surgeries are performed annually. The records of patients who underwent LH and AH were reviewed retrospectively. Preoperative and postoperative blood values in the first 24 hours after surgery were compared: hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HB), WBC, PLR, and NLR values were compared as well as the demographic characteristics of the patients who underwent these procedures. In addition, to evaluate the effect of ovaries on the inflammatory markers, the patients were divided into two groups: oophorectomy and non-oophorectomy. In our clinic, the decision to perform a hysterectomy is made by the weekly gynecology council. The type of surgery is determined according to the clinical condition of the patient, the gynecological examination, and the patient's request. In general, open surgery is preferred in patients with giant fibroids, many previous surgeries, and immobile uteri. Conditions such as dysfunctional uterine bleeding, cervical intraepithelial neoplasms, and uterine descensus indicate the need for LH. In cases where there is no clinical suspicion, oophorectomy is performed according to the patients' wishes. In benign cases, the preferred type of hysterectomy is type 1 extra facial hysterectomy. In LH, the procedure is performed as follows: The uterine manipulator is inserted vaginally. First, a Veress needle and then a trocar are entered through the umbilicus. The abdomen is insufflated with carbon dioxide, and the appropriate number of ports is placed. Uterine ligaments and vessels are cut by using bipolar energy. The uterus is removed through the vagina, and the vaginal cuff is sutured laparoscopically. Patients with chronic diseases (e.g., hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and rheumatologic, nephrological, and hematological diseases), the presence of active infection, corticosteroid use, acetylsalicylic acid, and anticoagulant use were not included in the study. Bladder and bowel injuries, blood transfusion requirements, wound infection and hematoma, postoperative respiratory system complications (e.g., atelectasis) were evaluated as surgical complications.
To compare robot assisted versus conventional laparoscopic surgery performed for bening gynecologic disorders regarding cosmesis, patient satisfaction and quality of life
This is a randomized controlled trial to determine if there is a difference between chlorhexidine gluconate and povidone iodine vaginal preparations for urogynecological surgery post operative infections.
OBJECTIVE: In the study, investigators aimed to evaluate the urological complications of gynecologic operations in a tertiary academic center and to evaluate the treatment methods of these complications. METHODS: The files of all patients who underwent gynecological surgery between January 2016 and January 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The age of patients with urological complications, American Anesthesia Society score, menopausal status, body mass index (BMI), preoperative hemoglobin level, postoperative hemoglobin level and hospitalization duration and number of previous surgeries were recorded. In addition, the patients with urological complications were evaluated in terms of the indications for surgery, type of surgery, type of urological complication and the way of treatment of the complication.
Attendances at an emergency department (ED) are often considered to depend on different factors such as moonlight, welfare checks, weather, and major sporting events. Data regarding effects of large sporting events on the workload of ED often assessed decreased patient volume, especially male use. Currently, no data are available on the effect of major televised sporting events on obstetrical visits. The aim of this study is to examine whether televised soccer games from a major sporting tournament, (Euro 2016) influence the level of attendance at an obstetrical ED and could have implications for women's welfare. In the summer of 2016, France hosted the largest European sporting event of the year 2016: the European Football Championships (Euro 2016). A total of 51 games were played over a month, bringing together the biggest European teams. An observational, retrospective study is conducted during this period on the number of emergency visits in a French tertiary Maternity hospital (Maternity of Nancy).
The intended pilot project aims at evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of questionnaires about resilience and quality of life in two different patient groups (either with a gynaecological carcinoma ora chronic gynaecological disease). The results provided by this pilot study will build the basis of an upcoming, larger project including these questionnaires and the main objective of assessing resilience. More precisely, the study aims at answering the following questions. How is the overall resilience and quality of life in the target population at one assessment point? Are the instruments used in this pilot feasible for the target population when assessing resilience and quality of life?
The authors aimed to evaluate the effects of postoperative gum chewing on laparoscopic gynecological surgery, gastrointestinal function-intestinal mobility and early postoperative recovery. Patients undergoing elective gynecological laparoscopy were randomized. Demographic and characteristic features of the patients were recorded. Operation type, operation and anesthesia information were recorded. Patients underwent a postoperative routine regimen. Starting from the sixth hour, the sugar-free gum was crushed every 15 minutes until the gas was released. Postoperative follow-up was performed routinely. The first bowel movements, first bowel movements and first gas extraction and first decongestation periods were recorded.
Surgery remains the backbone of modern management of benign gynecologic conditions. Some common surgical procedures include hysterectomy for uterine leiomyoma or adenomyosis, adnexectomy for ovarian and tubal pathology, and other conservative surgeries. These procedures can be accomplished by different surgical approaches comprising abdominal, vaginal, and laparoscopic routes. Although the use of vaginal and laparoscopic approach has increased in recent years, the open abdominal route is still the most commonly employed approach. This is especially the case in developing countries where resources to support the more expensive approach such as laparoscopy are quite limited. However, the procedure can be associated with significant morbidity. Delayed functional recovery influenced by pain and immobilization are important contributing factors for increased morbidity. Elastic abdominal binder, a wide elastic belt that is wore around the patient's abdomen to support surgical incision after surgery, has been employed by clinicians for pain relief, wound complications prevention, improved pulmonary function, and stabilization. Benefits of the abdominal binder use in this patient population have not been properly examined. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of postoperative elastic abdominal binder use on recovery by comparing pain scores and mobility function (through the 6-minute walk test [6MWT]) in postoperative gynecologic patients who use versus do not use the elastic abdominal binder to support incisional site.
Female inability to conceive a child. The purpose of this prospective randomized, double-blinded, double dummy, two-arm cross-over study is to investigate the difference on histological, transcriptional and immunological level in endometrium between 3x10mg Dydrogesterone oral tablets and 3x200 mg Micronized progesterone intravaginal capsules for the luteal support in egg cell donors. Beside that, the pharmacokinetics, the impact on the peripheral immunology (by blood sampling) and the microbiota (by genital swabs) will be investigated.
