Relationship between chronic endometritis and fallopian tube obstruction and its influence on pregnancy outcome after fallopian tubal recanalization.

Background: Chronic endometritis (CE), frequently asymptomatic, is associated with female infertility. Fallopian tube obstruction (FTO) is also one of the factors contributing to female infertility. More than 90% of cases of proximal FTO can be successfully treated after fallopian tubal recanalization (FTR) and the spontaneous pregnancy rate of treated women after FTR is only about 30%.

Risk factors for postoperative delayed gastric emptying in ovarian cancer treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

Background: Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) has shown promising results in improving the survival of ovarian cancer patients. Although the safety profiles of CRS-HIPEC exist, more attention should be paid to gastrointestinal complications, as the procedure involves a considerable proportion of bowel resection and anastomosis.

Aim: To identify the risk factors for delayed gastric emptying in ovarian cancer treated with CRS-HIPEC.

Risk factors of pleural effusion after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in late-stage and recurrent ovarian cancer.

Background: Pleural effusion (PE) is one of the most common complications of advanced recurrent ovarian cancer. However, no studies have revealed the risk factors for PE after surgery. The purpose of this study is to observe the incidence and risk factors of PE after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with late-stage and recurrent ovarian cancer.
