OBJECTIVES: To systematically review the literature on women's sexual quality of life after transvaginal natural orifice endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) for gynecological and nongynecological procedures, and to assess women's perceptions of vNO…

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Lateral suspension is an abdominal prosthetic surgical procedure used to correct apical prolapse. The procedure involves the placement of a T-shaped mesh on the anterior vaginal wall and on the isthmus or uterin…

INTRODUCTION: Transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) has already proven its non-inferiority to conventional abdominal laparoscopy (CAL) for hysterectomy without conversion. The results in terms of efficacy and…

Uterine leiomyoma is the most common benign tumour of the uterus in women of reproductive age. When removed surgically, a mini-invasive procedure is preferentially used (laparoscopic or robotic) and the extraction of the specimen can be man…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate a new wet-lab model for training in conservative bowel endometriosis surgery (shaving and discoid resection). DESIGN: Video demonstration. MATERIALS AND METHODS: (1) Modeling deep infiltrating endometriosis…

Study Objective: Evaluate the effects of a fast-track (FT) protocol on costs and post-operative recovery. Methods: One hundred and seventy women undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy for a benign indication were randomized in a FT prot…

Study Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the association between uterine weight and operative outcomes in women undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for a benign indication. Methods: This is a secondary analysis of a randomized…

Introduction: Ectopic pregnancy in a non-communicating rudimentary uterine horn is a rare gynecological condition associated with a high risk of uterine rupture and important maternal mortality and morbidity. A surgical excision of the rudi…

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to review the records of patients with excised abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) to determine patient characteristics, diagnostic methods, presence of concurrent pelvic endometriosis and type of s…

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: We aimed to compare differences between laparoscopic lateral suspension with mesh (LLS) performed with supracervical hysterectomy (LLSHE) and without hysterectomy (LLSUP). METHODS: We retrospectively collected …

Abstract A rare association mature cystic teratoma (MCT) with endometrioma in the left ovary is reported in English literature. Coexistence MCT and endometrioma in the same ovary is extremely rare and its diagnostic is a challenge clinicall…

BACKGROUND: Abscesses located in the cesarean-section (CS) induced isthmoceles are rarely encountered and are usually treated surgically, mostly by hysterectomy. CASE DESCRIPTION: We here report the case of a 40-year-old primiparous woman …

We report the successful conservative management of a non-Peutz-Jegher syndrome-associated ovarian sex cord tumour with annular tubules in a 32-year-old patient. The patient underwent a unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy by laparoscopy, and c…

INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis, characterized by the infiltration of the myometrium by ectopic endometrial islets, is a common condition that causes dysmenorrhea, abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility. Different treatment options exist, incl…

Endometriosis is a benign disease with high prevalence in women of reproductive age estimated between 10 and 15% and is associated with considerable morbidity. Its etiology and pathogenesis are controversial but it is believed to involve mu…

BACKGROUND: Recent findings strongly promoted the hypothesis that common pelvic gynecological diseases including endometriosis and ovarian neoplasia may develop de novo from ectopic endometrial-like glands and/or embryonic epithelial remnan…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the fertility status in women suffering from major postoperative complications following deep endometriosis surgery. STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective study in teaching and research hospitals (tertiary centers) including…

BACKGROUND: Deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is recognized as a specific entity responsible for pain. The distribution of locations and their contribution to surgical management has not been previously studied. METHODS: Medical, ope…

Deep pelvic endometriosis presents essentially in the form of a painful syndrome dominated by deep dyspareunia and painful functional symptoms that recur according to the menstrual cycle, with the semiology directly correlated with the loca…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To take recent progress in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) into account to determine its accuracy compared with that of transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS) in diagnosing bladder endometriosis. DESIGN: Retrospective analys…
