The authors analyze the data of ultrasonic examinations in 110 patients operated on for adenomyosis and in 50 patients with this condition not exposed to surgery, in whom the diagnosis was made after comprehensive examinations. The accuracy of ultrasonic diagnosis correlated with the disease
We report the case of a patient with adenomyosis complicated by deep vein thrombosis in whom low-dose gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) therapy was useful as a uterus-conserving therapeutic option. The patient was a 34-year-old nulliparous woman who presented with edema and pain in the
BACKGROUND
Incidence of adenomyosis is estimated on 20% in all of extracted uteruses. Clinically, it usually exists asymptomatically, but could be followed with dysmenorrhoea, menorrhagia and pelvic pain. One third of patients with adenomyosis are sterile, however in other two thirds, conception and
Eighty-six patients with histologically verified internal endometriosis were examined using histochemical, morphometric methods, and measurements of blood and myometrial tissue phosphatidyl inosites. Blood levels of phosphatidyl inosites were found reliably decreased in the patients vs. normal
OBJECTIVE
To explore the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features and diagnostic value of special-site ectopic pregnancy.
METHODS
The MRI features of special-site ectopic pregnancy on 39 pathologically confirmed cases were retrospectively analyzed. All cases received ultrasonic inspection, MRI
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the ureteral injury in gynecological laparoscopies and discuss its diagnosis, treatment and prevention.
METHODS
Ureteral injury in gynecological laparoscopies during the past 13 years was reviewed retrospectively. The clinical features of initial operations including the
The 100 fallopian tubes had been obtained from women whose mean age was 30 and whose mean period of amenorrhea was 38 days. Each fallopian tube gave rise to at least sixteen samples and was sectioned if necessary several times. There had been tubal rupture in 25 cases, and in at least 7 cases the
A high-intensity rim surrounding uterine leiomyomas was identified on T2-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images in five of 13 patients with histopathologically confirmed leiomyomas. These peripheral high-intensity rims were not associated with subject age or with size, location, or degeneration of
The endometrial tissue is a sensitive target for steroid sex hormones and is able to modify its structural characteristics with promptness and versatility. This article discusses briefly endogenous hormonal effects (cyclic changes, luteal phase defect, unopposed estrogen effect) and describes the
The authors analyzed 600 patients with uterine leiomyoma examined at the Escola Paulista de Medicina and submitted to surgical treatment between 1976 and 1987. The uteri were carefully studied and leiomyomas were confirmed. Other diseases were also found in 71.17% of the cases. Uteri from
BACKGROUND
Few histopathologic studies of uterine wound healing have been published compared with similar healing in other tissues. Our objective was to examine the histopathology resulting from iatrogenic trauma to the myometrium to acquire a better understanding of possible aberrations in uterine
