To study the feasibility of conservative management with progesterone as a treatment option for postabortal patients with uterine arterio-venous malformations (AVMs).This prospective observational study was conducted in the tertiary care teaching hospital BACKGROUND
Undefined, increasing hepatic lesions are a common issue in the follow-up care of breast cancer patients and frequently result in invasive diagnostic procedures.
METHODS
This case report describes the diagnostic approach in the case of a 58-year-old breast cancer patient with a previously
Administration of postmenopausal hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) is increasing. Both estrogen and progesterone have established effects upon the gastrointestinal tract. Our objective was to review the current literature and inform the primary care obstetrician-gynecologist of the physiologic and
OBJECTIVE
To identify hormone receptors within vascular malformations (arteriovenous malformations [AVMs], venous malformations [VMs], and lymphatic malformations [LMs]) of the head and neck.
METHODS
Immunohistochemical staining for estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) was performed
BACKGROUND
Vascular malformations frequently enlarge during adolescence, suggesting that hormones may be involved. The purpose of this study was to determine whether pubertal hormone receptors are present in vascular malformations and whether they differ from normal tissue.
METHODS
Tissue specimens
Arteriovenous malformation of the head and neck is a rare vascular anomaly but when present is persistent and progressive in nature and can represent a lethal benign disease. An unusual case is presented of an arteriovenous malformation of the base of tongue in a 32-year-old primigravida at 23.2
Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasy is an inborn disease with autosomal dominant transmission. Nose bleeding usually occurs during the 2nd decade of life as the first sign of the disease. Later, during the 3rd or 4th decade of life, typical subtle, pinhead-sized (1-2 mm in diameter) vascular
We report the history of a 77-year-old man with Osler-Weber-Rendu disease (hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia) who suffered from recurrent epistaxis and chronic bleeding anemia for many years. Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia is a rare congenital disease, that is characterized by
Vascular malformations (VMs) are rare congenital anomalies that develop during embryogenesis in different types of vessels. Several triggering factors of cutaneous VMs include trauma, infections, or hormonal changes. We investigated the expression of hormonal receptors (androgen, estrogen,
Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) displays significant variation in severity between affected individuals in the same family, ranging from relatively trivial epistaxis and telangiectasia to gastrointestinal, cerebral and pulmonary involvement. Evidence for successful therapy of
Two patients had the initial complaint of fluctuating paraparesis, which was most evident at menstruation. One patient had a semimonthly fluctuating deficit. Spinal cord compression and ischemia, secondary to the vascular mass, were considered the most likely mechanisms. Blood levels of estrogen and
BACKGROUND
Neurologic dysfunction, coma, and seizures are common in obstetric patients in the intensive care unit.
OBJECTIVE
To review common neurologic disorders resulting in critical illness in pregnancy.
METHODS
Obstetric disorders causing coma and seizures include eclampsia, acute fatty liver of
