EVALUATION OF DIAGNOSTIC ACCURACY PREHYSTERECTOMY CURETTAGE IN DETERMINING TUMOR TYPE THE PATIENTS WITH ENDOMETRIAL CANCER SHAHID MOTAHARI HOSPITAL URMIA, IRAN

BACKGROUND The number of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) has significantly increased in the recent decade. Although uterine artery embolization (UAE) has been adopted to minimize the blood loss during uterine curettage removing of CSP, massive bleeding and uterine rupture can still be frequently encountered. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of a novel combined laparosc...

Adenoidectomy, surgical removal of hypertrophic adenoids, is a common operation in children worldwide. The purpose of this study was to compare the operative effectiveness, and included total operative time, blood loss and complications, between endoscopic assisted adenoidectomy and conventional curettage adenoidectomy. EMBASE, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Infrastructu...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the use of manual vacuum aspiration in postabortion care in Malawi between 2008-2012. METHODS A retrospective cross-sectional study was done at the referral hospital Queen Elisabeth Central Hospital, and the two district hospitals of Chiradzulu and Mangochi. The data were collected simultaneously at the three sites from Feb-March 2013. All records available for women...

We retrospectively compared the outcome after the treatment of giant cell tumours of bone either with curettage alone or with adjuvant cementation. Between 1975 and 2008, 330 patients with a giant cell tumour were treated primarily by intralesional curettage, with 84 (25%) receiving adjuvant bone cement in the cavity. The local recurrence rate for curettage alone was 29.7% (73 of 246) compared ...

Histologic study of locally curetted bone marrow showed a sequence of blood clot formation, displacement of the clot by a primitive reticular tissue, and hematopoietic regeneration. Histologic regeneration of sinusoidal vessels, and recovery was incomplete 12 wk later with increased fat, residual trabecular bone, and cystic areas. Recovery of colony-forming units (CFU) paralleled hematopoietic ...

PURPOSE To evaluate factors predictive of recurrence following curettage of simple bone cysts (SBCs) in the proximal humerus. METHODS Records of 29 male and 3 female patients aged 3 to 22 (mean, 11) years who underwent curettage with or without bone grafting for a solitary SBC in the proximal humerus were reviewed. The appearance, size, location, activity level, and fracture pattern of each c...

The value of transvaginal B-mode ultrasonography combined with color velocity imaging and pulsed Doppler to detect retained trophoblastic tissue was evaluated prospectively in a series of 40 patients with postpartum (n = 15) or postabortion (n = 25) bleeding. Color velocity imaging was used to identify color-coded blood flow signals within myometrium and/or endometrium. Flow was subjectively qu...

A 26-year-old patient presented at the emergency department because of uterine bleeding for the previous 3 days. She had undergone voluntary termination of pregnancy by curettage 2 months before. Upon clinical examination, metrorrhagia was moderate, with heart rate: 90/min, blood pressure: 110/80 mmHg and temperature: 36.9°C. Intra-vaginal ultrasound examination showed a heterogeneous intra-ute...

PURPOSE To evaluate outcomes of 36 patients who underwent curettage, use of phenol, and reconstruction using the sandwich technique for giant cell tumour (GCT) of bone around the knee. METHODS 22 women and 14 men aged 19 to 46 (mean, 29.6) years underwent intralesional curettage, use of phenol, and reconstruction using the sandwich technique for GCT of the proximal tibia (n=23) or distal femu...
