Book Segmental Ureteral Resection with Ureteroneocystostomy for Gynecologic Malignances  a Case Series

Download or read book Segmental Ureteral Resection with Ureteroneocystostomy for Gynecologic Malignances a Case Series written by Giuseppe Vizzielli and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction / Background: Primary or recurrent gynecological cancers involving low urinary tract may require demolitive surgery with curative purpose. We aimed to assess surgical outcomes in patients undergoing segmental ureteral resection with ureteroneocystostomy as part of surgical procedures in advanced or recurrent gynecological cancers.Methodology: We retrospectively evaluated post-operative data of all gynecological cancer patients consecutively referred to our Center between March 2012 and July 2018, who underwent unilateral ureteral resection and ureteroneocistostomy with or without psoas-bladder hitch (PBH), in case of macroscopic evidence of ureteral infiltration to achieve oncological radicality.Results: A total of forty-six patients underwent surgery, including seventeen (37%) locally advanced cervical cancer, nine (19.5%) ovarian cancer recurrence, eight (17.4%) ovarian cancer, twelve (26%) other gynecological malignancies.Twenty-two patients (47.8%) experienced at least one high-grade post-operative complication and fourteen patients (30.4%) had major urological complications. Four patients (8.7%) died of complications within 90 days from surgery.Nine (69.2%) of thirteen patients with personal history of pelvic irradiation, had major urological complications, whereas only five (15.2%) among the thirty-three patients with negative history of pelvic irradiation experienced such type of complication.At multivariate analysis pre-operative radiotherapy (p=0.046) and history of pelvic irradiation (p=0.021) were independently associated with an increased risk of developing severe urinary complications. Age, peritoneal carcinosis and prolonged operative time did not correlate with an increased rate of such complications.Conclusion: In gynecologic oncologic surgery, ureteral resection with ureteroneocystostomy has high rate of related morbidity and mortality. Previous pelvic irradiation is strongly associated with severe urological complications.

Book Endometriosis in Adolescents

Download or read book Endometriosis in Adolescents written by Ceana H. Nezhat and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 745 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescent endometriosis is a previously overlooked disease in children, the true prevalence of which is still unknown but has been estimated between 19-73%. There are numerous initial challenges faced by adolescents suffering from delayed or undiagnosed endometriosis apart from experiencing chronic pain, such as: school/work absenteeism, false diagnoses/treatments, erroneous physician referrals, unnecessary radiological studies, radiation exposure, and emergency room visits as well as early exposure to narcotic pain medications and subsequent drug tolerance, resistance or even addiction. This text presents a clear history of physician and patient understanding and awareness of endometriosis in adolescents. It lays the groundwork for this condition with background information on endometriosis in general followed by a more focused look at endometriosis in adolescents. Leading experts in the field provide chapters on the different locations where endometriotic lesions can present in adolescents as well as identified risk factors and concomitant diseases of which it is important to be aware. In addition to the clinical presentation, this book also provides information on breaking down existing barriers, such as stigma, and current activism and awareness of this condition. Adolescent Endometriosis is a first-of-its-kind text that focuses exclusively on endometriosis in the adolescent population. Written by experts in the field, this book is a comprehensive resource for clinicians in all medical disciplines that treat adolescent age girls.

Book Non Obstetric Surgery During Pregnancy

Download or read book Non Obstetric Surgery During Pregnancy written by Ceana H. Nezhat and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-29 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As minimally invasive surgical techniques evolve, the outlook for patients continues to brighten. This is also true for pregnant women experiencing conditions requiring surgical intervention during gestation. A physician’s ability to identify potential risk factors in pregnant patients that present pre-op directly corresponds with their success in monitoring patients in post-op for adverse obstetric outcomes from non-obstetric surgeries. The utilization of laparoscopic techniques during surgery for pregnant patients has decreased the risk of fetal complications and increased the positive outlook for the duration of the pregnancy. This text is designed to present a minimally invasive approach to surgery that is non-obstetrics related and to educate readers on the potential risk factors and negative outcomes on pregnant patients following non-obstetric surgery. The various sections of this book will address issues faced by surgeons who undertake the task of operating on the pregnant patient. When performing non-obstetric surgery on a pregnant patient the ability to identify possible risk factors for adverse obstetric outcomes is important. Risk factors can be maternal-, surgical-, obstetrical-, or disease-associated. Common adverse obstetric outcomes following non-obstetric surgery include preterm delivery, preterm labor without preterm delivery, and miscarriage. Fetal well-being is an additional risk-benefit factor to be considered when weighing options before conducting non-obstetric surgeries on pregnant patients. This book will provide physicians with the knowledge and tools to identify common risk factors and successfully apply evidence-based risk reduction. To date, no comprehensive resource is available for non-obstetric surgery during pregnancy. Types of pregnancies, potential complications, proper use of anesthesia, types of risk factors (maternal-, surgical-, obstetrical-, and disease-associated), etc. will be thoroughly explained and depicted within these pages. All chapters will be written by subject matter experts in their fields. All information communicated will be comprised of the most currently available knowledge
