Article Abstract

Background: Clinical cases of a polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) have prolonged subclinical inflammation. Hysteroscopy has revealed worsened chronic endometritis (CE), particularly endometrial diffuse hyperemia, in PCOS patients. However, the possible relationships between PCOS and CE remain largely unexplored.

Methods: This retrospective-based investigation was conducted on 3336 infertile patients. The PCOS group consisted of 508 patients, while the non-POCS group consisted of 2828 individuals with normal ovarian function. Their clinical features and CE prevalence diagnosed with hysteroscopy were compared. The risk factors affecting the incidence of diffuse endometrial hyperemia were analyzed by binary logistic regression.

Results: The PCOS cohort and the non-PCOS cohort showed marked variations in age, body mass index (BMI), infertility (primary, secondary), basal hormone level (bFSH, bLH, bT, and PRL), anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), and CA125 ( < 0.05). The prevalence of CE in PCOS women was 41.73% (212/508), markedly higher than the 28.50% in the non-PCOS cohort (806/2828). Variations within diffuse endometrial hyperemia prevalence were especially marked ( < 0.05). Furthermore, we found that the variables of BMI, bLH, bT, and AMH correlated with diffuse endometrial hyperemia.

Conclusions: CE prevalence was elevated in clinical cases of infertility associated with PCOS, and diffuse endometrial hyperemia was prevalent, as indicated by hysteroscopy. Furthermore, increased BMI, bLH, bT, and AMH levels all contribute to the risk of diffuse endometrial hyperemia.

Rationale And Objectives: To develop and validate a non-invasive deep learning model that integrates voxel-level radiomics with multi-sequence MRI to predict microsatellite instability (MSI) status in patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC).

Methods: This two-center retrospective study included 375 patients with pathologically confirmed EC from two medical centers. Patients underwent preoperative multiparametric MRI (T2WI, DWI, CE-T1WI), and MSI status was determined by immunohistochemistry.

Adenomyosis and endometriosis, two common estrogen-dependent benign gynecological disorders usually present with overlapping symptoms, such as pain and infertility. These two conditions often co-exist and are associated with poor reproductive outcome. Both adenomyosis and endometriosis are associated with extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, regulated by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs).

Rationale And Objectives: To develop and validate a novel model based on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) and whole slide images (WSIs) for predicting microsatellite instability (MSI) status in endometrial cancer (EC) patients.

Materials And Methods: A total of 136 surgically confirmed EC patients were included in this retrospective study. Patients were randomly divided into a training set (96 patients) and a validation set (40 patients) in a 7:3 ratio.

The advent of widespread genomic testing of uterine mesenchymal tumors has led to novel insights into the biology of these diverse tumors, and many genomically-defined entities have been described in recent years. During a larger study of endometrial stromal sarcomas and unclassified uterine sarcomas, we identified three tumors harboring KDM2B gene fusions. Patients were 32, 61, and 67 years old and all initially underwent incomplete sampling via laparoscopic myomectomy (n=1), laparoscopic biopsy (n=1), or hysteroscopic myomectomy (n=1).

Background: Laminaria tents are commonly used to aid cervical dilation in gynecological procedures, but their potential risks are not well documented in the literature. This case report describes a severe adverse outcome following their use.

Case Presentation: A 27-year-old Caucasian woman G2P1 with a 14 + 1 weeks arrested pregnancy was consented for a dilation, extraction, and curettage.
