Adenomyosis can be defined as the settling of endometrial gland cells in the myometrium and deformity in the uterus and the prevalence of adenomyosis is according to the patient population and countries around 20%. There are recent publications reporting that this rate increases up to 50% in women dealing with infertility. In adenomyosis, where uterine morphology is affected, it is not thought that the uterus, which is expected to provide many morphological adaptations during pregnancy, will not be affected. Therefore, in this prospective study, it was planned to investigate the effects of adenomyosis during pregnancy. For this study the presence of adenomyosis will be questioned by using ultrasonographic morphological uterine limitation (MUSA) in women who apply to the outpatient clinic with suspicion of pregnancy and undergo transvaginal ultrasonography for the diagnosis of pregnancy before sixth gestational week. Patients will be divided into two groups according to the presence of adenomyosis and pregnancy complications such as preterm labor, premature rupture of membranes, cesarean section rates, preeclampsia, fetal malpresentation and preeclampsia will be compared between the groups.
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are chronic difficult diseases affecting a significant proportion of reproductive age women. it is hoped that the investigators can collect the health profile of these participants using structured questionnaires on their quality of life, reproductive health, collect the sonographic characteristics, identify the risks factors of participants suffering from severe disease, and to propose the best treatment modality for different patient groups, both with and without fertility wish.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether endometriosis and adenomyosis are progressive diseases, in terms of symptoms (pain, abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility), anatomical lesions size, and recurrences. We also aimed to address molecular questions on immune dialogues between ectopic lesions and the eutopic endometrium, auto-immunity in endometriosis and adenomyosis and the role of the microbiota in their respective pathophysiologies.
Women suffering from endometriosis and/or adenomyosis may also suffer from infertility. GnRH agonist injection could improve implantation and therefore increase the pregnancy rate in these patients. This study was designed to evaluate effects of the additional of GnRH agonist (single or 2 doses) to the routine oestrogens and progestins use as support before Frozen Embryon Transfer as compared to oestrogens and progestins only.
Postoperative ileus (POI) is a transient loss of coordinated peristalsis precipitated by surgery and exacerbated by opioid pain medication.So,how to provide patients with ideal analgesia without affecting the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function?This was a prospective randomized controlled study. A total of 105 patients who were scheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy were randomly selected from The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University by random number table. These patients were randomly divided into three groups: fentanyl(F) group, oxycodone(O) group and butorphanol(B) group.
Removing in situ and metastasis lesions completely during gynecological surgery is central to reduce the recurrence and death, and the identification of lesions in traditional gynecological surgery often depends on the experience of surgeons. The identification of nerves is often needed in gynecological surgery, such as the obturator nerves in pelvic lymphadenectomy, and the pelvic autonomic nerves in nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Nerve identification also relies heavily on the experience of surgeons. This project aims to realize the identification of lesions and nerves under the navigation of indocyanine green fluorescent imaging, and evaluate the accuracy of fluorescent imaging of lesions and the effectiveness of nerves identification by near-infrared imaging. This project may reduce the recurrence or death caused by residual lesions and postoperative dysfunction caused by nerves injury, thus, improve the survival rate and quality of life for patients with gynecological diseases.
Single blinded randomized controlled study of symptom improvement after uterine artery embolization (UAE) versus ultrasound guided percutaneous/transvaginal microwave ablation, evaluated by validated questionnaires. Adenomyosis is a benign condition causing pain and bleeding disorders in many women. Hysterectomy has historically been the golden standard for treatment as well as (postoperatively) diagnosis of the disease. In accordance with refined diagnostic tools such as ultrasound and/or MRI, minimally invasive treatments for adenomyosis are being explored. We plan to compare two minimally invasive techniques: embolization of the uterine artery (a commonly used procedure) and microwave ablation of adenomyotic tissue (previously only in clinical use in China).
This study is to explore the driving genes and the molecular mechanism of malignant transformation of adenomyosis. This study acquired the formalin fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue of patients pathologically conformed endometrial carcinoma arising in adenomyosis (EC-AIA) treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July 15, 2017 to July 15, 2019. The formalin fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from patients pathologically diagnosed with adenomyosis during this time period were also included as control specimens. The eutopic endometrium, normal adenomyosis tissue, and EC-AIA tissue were harvested from the FFPE tissue from patients with EC-AIA. The normal eutopic endometrium and normal adenomyosis tissue were obtained by laser microdissection. The driving genes and potential molecular mechanism of EC-AIA will be found by the technology of whole exome sequencing and transcriptomics (RNA-sequencing).
1 in 7 couples experience difficulty in conceiving. Many will require in vitro fertilization (IVF). IVF involves an initial period of downregulation to suppress the ovaries and prevent premature ovulation. Hormone injections are then used to stimulate a woman's ovaries to produce eggs which are removed by a minor operation. The harvested eggs are mixed with sperm to create embryos in the laboratory. These embryos are replaced in the womb a few days after they are created (fresh embryo transfer). Any remaining embryos are frozen such that they can be thawed and transferred at a later date (frozen thawed embryo transfer, FTET). The investigators have previously shown that the presence of moderate or severe adenomyosis significantly reduces the chance of clinical pregnancy after embryo transfer. The purpose of this study is to examine whether it is possible to improve the chance of clinical pregnancy in these women by modifying the IVF protocol they undergo for FTET. The hypothesis is that a prolonged downregulation regimen for women with adenomyosis would reduce the inflammatory reaction in the endometrium of these women and thus improve the chance of implantation after embryo transfer. Consenting patients will be offered FTET. Those proceeding will be randomized to one of two protocols (A - standard protocol vs. B - prolonged downregulation protocol). Women will also be offered a questionnaire before and after IVF treatment to assess their adenomyosis symptoms . The primary outcome of the study is clinical pregnancy defined as an intrauterine pregnancy with a visible heart beat older than 6 weeks gestation. Secondary outcomes include livebirth, pregnancy loss (biochemical pregnancy, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, termination of pregnancy), gestational age at delivery, birth weight, neonatal mortality, major congenital anomaly, serious medication reaction, number of frozen embryos available for transfer, number of days to achieve optimal endometrial thickness.
