Surgical Incision Closure Method to Prevent Niche Formation After Cesarean Section- Randomized Controlled...

Cesarean Section ComplicationsUterine Bleeding

In the last decade we have been exposed to the complication of a caesarean section called a "niche". A niche is an anaerobic defect in the location of the cesarean section, which represents the discontinuity of the endometrium and myometrium. A niche is usually diagnosed by ultrasound, and can also be diagnosed by hysterosalpingogram or hysteroscopy. In the presence of a niche women suffer more frequently from irregular bleeding, dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and dyspareunia. We believe that a combination of tissue ischemia and thinning of the scar tissue that forms, causes a niche to form. Large randomized studies regarding the preferred surgical technique in cesarean section, including various methods of incision closure have found that there is no single method that is obviously superior. However, these studies did not examine niche formation as a complication of cesarean section. In this study we will examine whether a unique incision closure method reduces post-cesarean niche formation.

Assessing the Benefit of Pipelle Biopsy in Patients With Postmenopausal Bleeding and an Atrophic-appearing...

Postmenopausal BleedingEndometrial Cancer1 more

Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) is the occurrence of vaginal bleeding 12 months following a woman's last menstrual cycle. PMB represents one of the most common reasons for referral to gynaecology services. Approximately 10% of women with PMB will be found to have endometrial cancer. The gold standard of investigation of PMB is ambulatory gynaecology through the outpatient hysteroscopy clinic, which is often combined with Pipelle biopsy for endometrial sampling. Up to 60% of women that present with PMB will have an atrophic-appearing cavity at hysteroscopy. This provides a challenge in obtaining a histological sample through both dilatation & curretage (D&C) and Pipelle biopsy. Often, scant tissue that is insufficient for clinical diagnosis is obtained. Pipelle biopsy is associated with patient discomfort. It is also associated with costs related to the purchasing of equipment and the processing of samples in the laboratory to the sum of approximately 30 euro per sample. It is rare that a sample taken from an atrophic cavity will return any clinically meaningful result. A negative hysteroscopy reduces the probability of endometrial cancer to 0.6%. This study aims to compare patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity that undergo pipelle biopsy to those that do not. Differences in pain scores, cost saving and differences in clinical follow up will be assessed to evaluate the benefit of Pipelle biopsy in patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity.

A Review on the Outcome of Patient Managed in Postmenopausal Bleeding Clinic

Postmenopausal Bleeding

Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) is a common gynaecological complaint, accounting for up to 5 to 10 % of postmenopausal women being referred to gynaecological outpatient clinic. It also comprised of up to 10% of our outpatient gynaecological referral. In general, 60 % of women with postmenopausal bleeding have no organic causes identified, whilst benign causes of PMB includes atrophic vaginitis, endometrial polyp, submucosal fibroid and functional endometrium. However, between 5.7 to 11.5% of women with postmenopausal bleeding have endometrial carcinoma, which is the fourth most common cancer among women, therefore, it is important to investigate carefully to exclude genital tract cancer. A One-stop postmenopausal bleeding clinic has been established since February, 2002 by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, New Territories East cluster (NTEC) aiming at providing immediate assessment of women with postmenopausal bleeding in one single outpatient clinic assessment. During the visit, a detailed history was taken in regarding the PMB and usage of hormonal replacement therapy or herbal medicine. A physical examination was performed and a cervical smear was taken if not been taken within a year. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) was then performed to measure the endometrial thickness (ET), examining ovaries then followed by an endometrial sampling. An outpatient hysteroscopy was performed only if TVS showed an ET >= 5mm, or an abnormal endometrial appearance or unsatisfactory ET. Benign looking endometrial polyp would be removed during the outpatient hysteroscopy if possible. At the moment, there was very limited local data and lack of the long term result. Investigators aim to retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcome of postmenopausal bleeding patients who has attended One Stop Postmenopausal Clinic in order to formulate better care and counseling in future. Objectives: To analyze histopathology in relative to history and ultrasound findings in PMB women presented to One Stop Postmenopausal Bleeding Clinic at NTEC To correlate the clinical findings of transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) with outpatient hysteroscopy and endometrial assessment in The One Stop Postmenopausal Bleeding Clinic To identify predictive and prognostic factors in women with PMB for possible use in triaging high risk patients

Platelet Rich Plasma for Uterine Scar

Cesarean Section ComplicationsUterine Bleeding2 more

When vessel wall injury occurs, platelets become activated, releasing more than 30 bioactive proteins, many of which have a fundamental role in hemostasis, inflammation and ultimate wound healing. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a modification of fibrin glue made from autologous blood, is being used to deliver growth factors in high concentration to sites requiring wound healing. PRP is obtained from a sample of patients' blood drawn at the time of treatment. As the rate of cesarean deliveries has been rising, long-term adverse sequelae due to uterine scar defects have been increasing. PRP might be a simple preventive treatment that potentially can reduce morbidity following cesarean deliveries.
