Article Abstract

Uterine necrosis following cesarean section is an extremely rare but serious complication. This case report presents a unique scenario where a cross binding suture technique was employed to manage intractable postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), ultimately leading to uterine necrosis and hysterectomy. The case underscores the challenges of managing severe PPH and highlights the potential complications of unconventional surgical techniques. It also emphasizes the importance of early recognition and intervention to minimize maternal morbidity and mortality.

Although Müllerian adenosarcoma of the uterus shows weak malignant potential, there are still some factors indicating a worse prognosis. An incontinuous pelvic pain with urinary frequency, urgency, and hypouricemia arose in a mid-70s woman who refused to acknowledge the history of Tamoxifen use. A huge mass in the pelvis was found simultaneously by palpation, B-ultrasonography, and computed tomography.

Background: Complete hydatidiform mole with a coexisting fetus (CMCF) is a rare form of twin pregnancy associated with high maternal and perinatal risks, posing complex diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The standard approach ranges from termination of pregnancy to conservative management to fetal viability. Recent evidence suggests that spontaneous regression of molar tissue may occur, supporting conservative treatment in selected cases.

Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a common pregnancy complication, closely associated with endothelial dysfunction and inhibition of angiogenesis. This study aims to explore the pathological mechanisms causing endothelial dysfunction and suppressed angiogenesis in PE, with the aim of identifying potential drug targets. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were exposed to angiotensin II (Ang-II) to mimic PE-related endothelial dysfunction.

Introduction: Uterocutaneous fistula (UCF) is a rare but significant complication arising from an abnormal connection between the uterus and the skin, often following cesarean sections or other pelvic surgeries.

Case Presentation: This case report presents a 22-year-old female with a chronic, non-healing wound at the site of a prior lower segment cesarean section (LSCS). Initially managed conservatively for a surgical site infection, the patient developed persistent symptoms, including a sinus tract with watery discharge.

Uterine fibroids (leiomyomas) and adenomyosis are among the most common benign gynecological conditions affecting women of reproductive age. These disorders are frequently associated with abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure symptoms on adjacent pelvic organs, and potential infertility. The incidence of fibroids increases as women enter their third and fourth decades of life.
