Filter by:Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser(MRKH) syndrome is described as absence or underdevelopment of vagina and uterus. This condition is extremely rare congenital malformation that affects one in every 5000 female births. Medical management of MRKH syndrome includes the creation of a neovagina using nonsurgical or surgical procedure. In Vietnam, since 2014, Davydov technique has been used to create neovagina for patients with MRKH syndrome at Tu Du hospital which is the biggest obstetric and gynecological hospital in south of Vietnam. However, the effectiveness of this surgical approach on patient's life and sexual activity hasn't been assessed. The objective of this study is to assess the quality of life, the psychological impact and the sexual function of Vietnamese women with MRKH syndrome after Davydov surgical procedure.
This study aims to evaluate whether IMA sparing may represent an advantage in terms of reduced incidence and severity of sexual dysfunctions after colorectal resections for diverticular disease (DD).
The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the therapeutic effects on OAB symptoms, and sexual functions, in terms of erectile function and ejaculatory function, in sexually active OAB male treated with behavior therapy or behavior therapy plus Mirabegron (50 mg).
The investigators aimed to investigate whether the uterine manipulator which is usually utilized in laparoscopic hysterectomy would also be of benefit in preventing postoperative vaginal length and sexual function by facilitating the accurate localization fo the colpotomy site. Patients scheduled for abdominal hysterectomy for benign causes will be randomized into two arms: Group 1 Uterine manipulator arm in which participants received a uterine manipulator during the procedure for aiding to locate the accurate colpotomy site and Group 2 consisting of control patients who will not receive uterine manipulator but undergo a standard abdominal hysterectomy. Postoperative vaginal length, postoperative female sexual function index (FSFI) will be compared with the preoperative measurements in the two groups. A 5 points Surgeon satisfaction scale will also be applied to the surgeons and residents performing the surgery to address their satisfaction in locating the colpotomy site.
This research study is evaluating an educational intervention for breast cancer survivors who have experienced changes in sexual function after ovarian suppression treatment to reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence.
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in Brazil, and its treatment, namely surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or hormone therapy, has consequences and side effects that significantly affect the quality of life and associated physical and psychological factors. The practice of physical activity, in turn, may play a beneficial role in these factors, and help the recovery of the patient in relation to the consequences of the treatments. Two types of physical activity can be addressed in the context of breast cancer; Dance and the Pilates method. Thus, the objective of the present study will be to analyze the impact of Pilates practice and dance on quality of life and on psychological and physical factors in patients undergoing adjuvant treatment of breast cancer. Patients older than 18 years who are in adjuvant treatment, namely, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and / or hormone therapy at the Oncology Research Center - CEPON, will be invited to be part of the study. With a randomized clinical trial of three arms, the patients will be submitted to 16 weeks of intervention, and randomized in 3 groups: (A) belly dance protocol group; (B) Pilates method protocol group, and (C) control group who will continue with their routine activities. Sample randomization will be conducted in confidence by one of the researchers in a specific computer program. Information about personal and clinical characteristics, quality of life, psychological factors (depressive symptoms, body image, self-esteem, optimism, perceived stress, fatigue, pain, sexual function and sleep quality) and physical factors (cardiorespiratory fitness, balance , Posture, upper limb functionality and presence of lymphedema). All information will be collected before and after the intervention period. Statistical analysis will use the statistical package SPSS - IBM, version 20.0. Firstly, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation and percentage) will be used in order to know the data, and then the Anova two way test with repeated measurements and Sydak Comparison Test, in order to analyze the data. Groups of the Pilates method, of the dance and control group. Significance level of 5%.
All hysterectomies were performed intrafascially using the clamp-cut-ligate method as described by (Jones, 2003); Careful examination under anesthesia. Catheterization by N. 18 Foley's catheter and its balloon Filled with 10-ml saline.A transverse lower abdominal incision (Pfannenstiel incision) ranging from 8-12 cm through which the abdomen is opened in layers. During subtotal hysterectomy procedure, the corpus is amputated just below the level of the isthmus and then the endocervical canal is electrocoagulated using monopolar electrocautery. The cervical stump is closed using vicryl 0 sutures. During total hysterectomy procedure, the urinary bladder is dissected off the lower uterine segment of the uterus and cervix by blunt or sharp dissection. Blunt dissection is done using a finger pushed gently against the cervix rather than against the bladder. Sharp dissection using Metzenbaum scissors is performed in patients with previous cesarean sections, with upward traction on the bladder peritoneum and the uterine fundus stretched tightly out of the pelvis, the tips of the Metzenbaum scissors rest lightly on the fascia overlying the cervix with small bites to develop a tissue plane, dissecting the bladder from the anterior cervix. Revision of all pedicles to ensure hemostasis. Intraoperative antibiotics (1 gm of a 3rd generation cephalosporin + 0.5 gm metronidazole). The abdomen is closed in layers; the wound is covered with a sterile dressing. All specimens were sent for pathological examination in the pathology Unit.
