Article Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare some clinical characteristics of two different management alternatives in pregnants with placental invasion anomalies.
Methods: We conducted a single-center retrospective study of all patients who delivered with invasive placentation between January 2016 and May 2017. We included only the patients with placental invasion anomaly and planned cesarean section.
Results: Fifty-one pregnants met the inclusion criteria. Cesarean hysterectomy was performed in 29 patients and segmental resection in 22. Major intraoperative and postoperative complications were comparable between the two groups. There were significant differences between the groups with regard to gravidity, pre- and post-operative hemoglobin concentrations, number of packed red blood cell transfused, and operation time (p < .05).
Conclusions: An initial fertility conserving surgical procedure is an option in patients with extensive invasive placentation with lesser transfusion requirement and shorter operative time compared to cesarean hysterectomy.

Background: Assisted vaginal birth is a lifesaving procedure where health workers use special devices to expedite birth vaginally when some complications emerge, such as due to prolonged labor. When the use of assisted vaginal birth is possible and appropriate, it provides benefits over cesarean section. These benefits include shorter recovery, reduced hospital stays, lower risks of complications, cost savings, and greater likelihood of vaginal birth in future pregnancies.

Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is commonly described in individuals recovering from immunosuppression, particularly in HIV-positive patients initiating antiretroviral therapy. However, a similar rebound phenomenon can occur postpartum, a period marked by a shift from an immunotolerant to a pro-inflammatory state. IRIS in this context is underrecognized and may present atypically, complicating timely diagnosis.

Fowler's syndrome causes urinary retention due to failure of the urethral sphincter to relax. Management aims for complete bladder emptying, typically via intermittent self-catheterization. If conservative treatment fails, detrusor overactivity with Fowler's syndrome may be managed surgically using clam cystoplasty and the Mitrofanoff procedure to increase bladder capacity and reduce pressure.

Background: There is a lack of evidence on the importance of pain or other aspects of clinical care in the overall patient experience and patient-centered outcomes in cesarean delivery. The purpose of this study was to discover patient priorities in cesarean delivery anesthesia experience, to compare patient and provider perspectives, and to explore attitudes on shared decision-making around anesthesia choices for cesarean delivery.
Methods: Patients with recent cesarean deliveries and clinical care providers were approached using a purposeful sampling strategy for this prospective observational qualitative study.

Background: Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is an obstetric condition. This study analyzes the outcomes of PAS parturients and their newborns undergoing emergency cesarean sections as opposed to planned cesarean sections.
Methods: In this research, we conduct a thorough retrospective analysis of 345 patients with placenta accreta at a single medical center.
