No full textObjective: To describe a case in which hysteroscopic removal of a fibroid that had migrated through the uterine wall induced formation of a uterine fistula. Design: After embolization of uterine fibroids, an investigative clinical, sonographic, and hysteroscopic protocol was followed. Setting: Gynecologic clinic of a university hospital.Patient(s): A 38-year-old woman undergoing embolization of uterine arteries for uterine fibroids. Intervention(s): Angiography-guided transcatheter bilateral embolization of uterine arteries, with clinical, sonographic, and hysteroscopic follow-up. Main Outcome Measure(s): Patient morbidity and satisfactory intercourse. Result(s): Six months after embolization of the uterine arteries, the patient presented migration of the fibroid through the uterine wall. Hysteroscopic removal of the fibroid induced posthysteroscopic formation of a uterine fistula. Conclusion(s): After embolization of the uterine arteries, thorough follow-up examination of the uterine cavity is strictly recommended. Diagnosis of a uterine wall perforation can identify an abnormal source of uterine bleeding, and patients should be counseled to avoid pregnancy until the lesion heals completely
Cervical cancer in pregnancy: Analysis of the literature and innovative approaches
No full textCervical cancer is one of the most common gynecological malignancies diagnosed during pregnancy although, fortunately, it is a rare event. In majority of cases, the management of cervical cancer in pregnant women is not different from nonpregnant women and prognosis seems not compromised by pregnancy. The association between cancer and pregnancy appears to be a significant challenge for women and specialists and the decisions about therapy must be individualized and taken by a multidisciplinary team. This review is focused on cervical cancer in pregnancy. The aim is to discuss the diagnosis, potential biomarkers and molecular aspects, therapeutic approaches, and prognosis from intraepithelial cervical neoplasia to invasive cervical cancer (early and advanced stages) in different gestational ages. We provide an overview of the current literature regarding the treatment strategies of concurrent pregnancy and cervical cancer cases and we propose some clinical advices to help clinicians to manage this condition. A mention about the effects of the conservative therapy (as conization) on fertility, the human papillomavirus vaccine in pregnant women and our center's experience with obstetrical and oncological outcomes are reported
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
