Incarcerated gravid uterus (IGU) is a rare and serious obstetric complication. IGU is defined as the entrapment of the gravid uterus between the pubic symphysis and the sacral promontory. The incidence of IGU is 1 in 3000-10 000 cases. IGU is associated with significant obstetric complications, including preterm labor, intrauterine fetal death, growth restriction, renal failure, uterine ischemia/rupture and thrombosis. Here, we present the case of a primigravida with urinary retention at 14 weeks...

INTRODUCTION: Data concerning the mechanical properties of the perineum during delivery are very limited. In vivo experiments raise ethical issues. The aim of the study was to describe some of the biomechanical properties of each perineal tissue layer collected from sows in order to better understand perineal tears during childbirth. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Samples of each perineal tissue layer were obtained from the skin, the vagina, the external anal sphincter (EAS), the internal anal sphincter (IAS), and the anal mucosa of fresh dead sows...

OBJECTIVE: To show feasibility and technique used to perform a total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, endometriosis resection, and ovarian reconstruction in a patient with a frozen pelvis secondary to a history of ruptured tubo-ovarian abscess. DESIGN: Narrated step-by-step video demonstration. SETTING: Single academic institution INTERVENTIONS: In patients with a history of multiple abdominal surgeries, abdominal mesh, or in the case of this patient, a history of ruptured tubo-ovarian abscess, a vaginal approach may offer a safer approach...

Adult-type gynecological soft tissue and visceral sarcomas are rare tumors, with an estimated incidence of 13% of all sarcomas and 4% of all gynecological malignancies. They most often develop in the uterus (83%), followed by the ovaries (8%), vulva and vagina (5%), and other gynecological organs (2%). The objective of this review is to provide an overview of the current management of gynecological sarcomas, according to international guidelines. The management of gynecological sarcomas should follow the recommendations for the management of soft tissue and visceral sarcomas...

The aim of this case report is to show the advantages of the extraperitoneal cesarean section (ECS) approach in a pregnant patient with multiple previous abdominal transperitoneal colon surgeries and Crohn's disease. A pregnant nulliparous woman with Crohn's disease was admitted for delivery. After delivery, a large rupture and lesion of the rectum was observed. Suturing of the vagina, rectum and sphincter was performed by an abdominal surgeon. Because of a very large and irregularly shaped rectum rupture, the patient underwent infraumbilical medial laparotomy and sigmoidostomy...

Amniocele is a rare condition involving herniation of the amniotic sac through a uterine breach. Our case is of a 29-year-old pregnant woman at 31 weeks of pregnancy who presented to the maternity triage of the Mirebalais Teaching Hospital for abdominal pain and the passage of blood through the vagina. After an ultrasonographic evaluation, the diagnosis of amniocele was made. In practice, for a third-trimester, nonlaboring pregnant woman with this symptomatology, the most common diagnoses that come to mind are placenta previa and placental abruption...

BACKGROUND: When a disorder causes absence of a healthy, full-size vagina, various neovaginal creation methods are available. Sometimes dilation or stretching of the vaginal cavity is sufficient, but intestinal or dermal flap tissue is generally required. However, different inherent tissue properties cause complications. Therefore, a lost body part should be replaced with a similar material. The use of organ-specific acellular vaginal tissue carries great potential, as its similar architecture and matrix composition make it suitable for vaginal regeneration...

BACKGROUND: Not to delay delivery for more than 24 hours after rupture of the membrane is the thumb rule in obstetrics. Ascending infection from the vagina results in dangerous chorioamnionitis, which threatens the lives of the baby and mother. We developed a novel method to prevent ascending infection by using a vaginal drain, which helps to continue pregnancies if the leak stops and buys some time for antenatal steroids to act if the leak doesn't stop. METHOD: In this study, 20 uncomplicated singleton pregnant women with spontaneous preterm premature rupture of membranes at gestational ages <35 weeks were recruited...

BACKGROUND: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) is closely associated with pathogenic microbiomes in the female reproductive tract, and can lead to neonatal septicemia. The current study aimed to investigate potential pathogenic microbiomes associated with neonatal septicemia based on DNA metagenome sequencing. METHODS: In this study, a total of 7 pregnant women with PPROM presenting neonatal septicemia (experimental group) and 3 pregnant women with normal newborns (control group) were enrolled...

BACKGROUND: Herpes simplex virus type-1 and type-2 cause a viral disease named Herpes. Genital herpes is mainly caused by HSV-2 with symptoms of painful and itchy blisters on the vagina, cervix, buttocks, anus, penis, or inner thighs with blisters that rupture and convert into sores. The homeopathic remedy Rhus Tox has been widely used to treat herpes and has shown invitro anti-inflammatory effects in previous studies. PURPOSE: The presented review focuses on relapses and harmful effects caused by acyclovir in modern medicine and the probable antiherpetic activity of Rhus Tox on HSV infection based on its pathophysiology, preclinical findings, on primary cultured mouse chondrocytes, mouse cell line MC3T3e1 and a comparative study of Natrum Mur with Rhus Tox on HSV infection...

OBJECTIVE: To ameliorate the treatment of large paravaginal hematomas postpartum using the Zhukovsky vaginal catheter. METHODS: A retrospective, controlled study including puerperas with large paravaginal hematomas. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed treatment, a group of patients underwent traditional obstetric surgery. A second group of puerperas underwent an integrated approach: the surgical stage (pararectal incision) and the application of the Zhukovsky vaginal catheter...

The vaginal microbiome is a distinct component of the human microbiome that is colonized by a wide variety of microorganisms. Lactobacilli are the most frequently identified microorganisms in the healthy human vagina. These Gram-positive bacilli can acidify the vaginal microenvironment, inhibit the proliferation of other pathogenic microorganisms, and promote the maintenance of a eubiotic vaginal microbiome. However, a vaginal flora with a reduced proportion or abundance of lactobacilli is associated with various vaginal infections that have been linked to serious health consequences such as infertility, preterm birth, pelvic inflammatory disease, premature rupture of membranes, and miscarriage...

Vaginal bleeding in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy is usually due to placental causes, namely placental abruption and placenta previa. Other causes include uterine rupture, vasa previa, and hematologic disorders. However, benign or malignant lesions of the vagina and the cervix may also cause vaginal bleeding or spotting. Although cervical cancer in pregnancy is rare, about 8% of pregnant women have an abnormal Pap smear and 3% of the total cervical cancers are diagnosed during pregnancy. We report a case of a 20-week pregnant woman who presented with vaginal bleeding; a visual inspection revealed a large exophytic lesion of the cervix...

True vaginal prolapse is rare in bitches and is most likely to occur near whelping. A 2-year-old intact female Brazilian mastiff, 39.5 kg, had a true vaginal prolapse associated with urinary bladder retroflection; the female was in estrus, and concomitantly had diarrhea for 3 d, plus vaginal hyperplasia, and ultimately a vaginal prolapse. Ultrasound examination and retrograde urethrocystography were extremely important for detection and identification of the position (retroflection) of the urinary bladder within the prolapsed vagina...

INTRODUCTION Genital herpes is the most common sexually transmitted disease and is most commonly caused by herpes simplex virus -2 (HSV2) which is usually sexually transmitted (1). We report a case of a 28-year-old woman with an unusual case of HSV presentation that rapidly resulted in necrosis and rupturing of the labia less than 48 hours after first appearance of symptoms. CASE PRESENTATION We report the case of a 28-year-old female patient who presented to our clinic with painful necrotic ulcers of both labia minora, urinary retention, and extreme discomfort (Figure 1)...

An 83-year-old postmenopausal female P5L5 (all full-term normal deliveries) presented with complaints of foul-smelling purulent discharge per vagina for 15 days associated with pain in abdomen. A midline mass was palpable per abdomen in the suprapubic region corresponding to 16 weeks size gravid uterus, which was soft to firm in consistency. On examination per vaginum, the atrophied cervix was found flush with the vagina and purulent discharge was seen draining through the cervix. Blood reports showed raised total leucocyte count with granulocyte predominance...

Choriocarcinoma is a highly malignant trophoblastic tumor that occurs mostly in women of childbearing age. The main mode of metastasis is hematogenous metastasis. The most common sites of metastasis are the lung, vagina and brain, while splenic metastasis is rare. Because of its rapid development, extensive metastasis can occur in a short period, and some patients only show metastatic symptoms, which are often missed or misdiagnosed as ectopic pregnancy or other diseases. We describe a rare case of splenic metastatic choriocarcinoma with acute abdominal pain caused by nontraumatic splenic rupture...

IMPORTANCE: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a common pathogen with an effective treatment. However, it remains a significant cause of neonatal sepsis, morbidity, and mortality. The screening and management of this infection are some of the first concepts learned during medical training in obstetrics. However, effective screening and evidence-based management of GBS are nuanced with many critical caveats. OBJECTIVE: The objectives of this review are to discuss the essential aspects of GBS screening and management and to highlight recent changes to recommendations and guidelines...

Introduction: Posterior Cul-de-sac rupture is a rare delivery complication and a diagnostic challenge to every obstetrician. The associated predisposing factors include genital anomalies (such as vaginal atresia), the use of misoprostol to induce delivery, previous pelvic infection, and caesarean scar. Herein, we report the case of a posterior Cul-de-sac rupture without any disposing risk factor. Case presentation: A 27-year-old G5P4 pregnant woman at the 33rd week of gestation presented with spontaneous onset of labor, the administration of calcium channel blockers failed to stop her active labor, which progressed with a spontaneous rupture of membranes...

In China, premature rupture of membranes (PROM) counts as a major pregnancy complication in China and usually results into adverse pregnancy outcomes. We analysed the vagina microbiome composition using 16S rDNA V3-V4 amplicon sequencing technology, in this prospective study of 441 women in their third trimester of pregnancy. We first divided all subjects into PROM and HC (healthy control) groups, in order to investigate the correlation of vagina microbiome composition and the development of PROM. We found that seven pathogens were higher in the PROM group as compared to the HC group with statistical significance...
