In Brief OBJECTIVE: To investigate the risk of vaginal cuff dehiscence after different routes hysterectomy and methods closure. METHODS: A multi-institutional analysis 12,398 patients who underwent for both benign malignant disease between 1994 2008 was performed. We analyzed how approaches to suture may influence development dehiscence. RESULTS: Women had total laparoscopic (n=3,573), abdominal (n=4,291), (n=4,534) hysterectomies experienced 23 (0.64%), 9 (0.2%), 6 (0.13%) cases dehiscence,...
Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic neoplasm. To date, international guidelines recommend sentinel lymph node biopsy for low-risk neoplasms, while systematic lymphadenectomy still considered high-risk cases. This study aimed to compare long-term survival of patients who were submitted alone versus pelvic lymphadenectomy.Patients with endometrial according 2021 European Society Gynaecological Oncology/European Radiotherapy and Pathology risk classification retrospectively...
Management of endometrial cancer is advancing, with accurate staging crucial for guiding treatment decisions. Understanding sentinel lymph node (SLN) involvement rates across molecular subgroups essential. To evaluate SLN in early-stage (International Federation Gynecology and Obstetrics 2009 I-II) cancer, considering subtypes new European Society Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) risk classification. The SENECA study retrospectively reviewed data from 2139 women stage I-II 66 centers 16...
Objective To determine the incidence of long term lymphadenectomy complications in primary surgery for endometrial cancer and to elucidate risk factors these complications. Methods A retrospective chart review was carried out all patients with managed at Parma University Hospital Unit Gynecology Obstetrics between 2010 2016. Inclusion criteria were surgical procedure including hysterectomy (pelvic or pelvic aortic). We identified postoperative lymphocele lower extremity lymphedema. Logistic...
This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of concurrent endometrial cancer in patients pre-operatively diagnosed with atypical hyperplasia undergoing hysterectomy. Additionally, we assessed occurrence high intermediate-risk and high-risk tumors according ESGO-ESTRO-ESP classification. The also compared surgical outcomes complications between simple hysterectomy those sentinel lymph node biopsy. In this multicenter retrospective study, a pre-operative diagnosis were identified divided into...
Laparoscopy is commonly used for endometrial cancer treatment, and sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping has become the standard procedure nodal assessment. Despite standardization of technique, there no definitive data regarding its failure rate. The objective this study to identify factors associated with unsuccessful SLN in patients undergoing laparoscopic after intracervical indocyanine green (ICG) injection.We retrospectively evaluated a consecutive series who underwent ICG injection, four...
Endometriosis is a benign condition affecting women of reproductive age. A potential association with ovarian cancer has been documented. Atypical endometriosis (AE) characterized by deviations from the typical microscopic appearance endometriosis, including cytologic and architectural atypia. AE recognized as precursor to endometriosis-associated cancers (EAOC), particularly endometrioid clear cell subtypes. presents challenges in diagnosis due its diverse clinical pathological features,...
Endometriosis is a benign gynecologic disease defined as the presence of functional endometrial glands and stroma outside uterine cavity, causing dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, menstrual irregularities, infertility. Serum CA-125 measurement now consolidated method for diagnosing this condition, its interpretation has posed number problems, particularly regarding utility in minimal-mild endometriosis, whereas value diagnostic aid moderate-severe stages well recognized. In our cohort, serum values...
Objective Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping represents the standard approach in uterine confined endometrial cancer patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate anatomical distribution SLNs and most frequent locations nodal metastasis. Methods This an observational retrospective multicenter involving eight high volume gynecologic centers Italy. We reviewed 1576 patients with a histologically confirmed diagnosis from September 2015 June 2020. All underwent total hysterectomy...
Based on the degree of cytologic atypia, mitotic activity, and other features, uterine smooth muscle tumors have historically been grouped into two classes: benign leiomyomas malignant leiomyosarcomas. However, this separation holds true more in principle than practice because tumor's biological potential may not always be determined with certainty, complicating diagnosis, therapy. We report three cases patients uncertain potential. Surgery was radical conservative one. During follow-up, one...
