primary choriocarcinoma of the uterine cervix is an extremely rare disease. the clinical diagnosis of cervical choriocarcinoma is difficult, because of its rarity and being non-specific abnormal vaginal bleeding the most common symptom. in the present report,the authors present a case of cervical choriocarcinoma, which was initially misdiagnosed as a cesarean section scar ectopic pregnancy. rem...

Endometriosis is the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity.l When this tissue occurs in a circumscribed mass, it is referred to as an endometrioma.2 Although endometriosis is usually a pelvic disease, it can involve other sites. Reported here is a case of endometriosis in a Cesarean section scar. A brief discussion of the current literature and management strategi...

only marginally increased among women undergoing a trial of labor2 than among those undergrant an elective repeat cesarean section (0.4% vs 0.2% OR=2.1), with a significant decrease in need for transfusion (OR=0.57) or hysterectomy (OR=0.39), has led authorities to encourage vaginal birth after cesarean3. A group of investigators concluded4 that among women with a previously scarred uterus, ind...

Cesarean section and the resultant Cesarean scar are known to be associated with obstetric complications in subsequent pregnancies. Cesarean scar is also associated with gynecological conditions that can adversely affect the patient’s quality of life. We describe a very rare case of Cesarean scar abscess that developed 8 years after a Cesarean delivery, which was managed by emergency hysterectomy.

INTRODUCTION Cesarean section (Sectio Caesarea) is a surgical method for the completion of delivery. After various historical modifications of operative techniques, modern approach consists in the transverse dissection of the anterior wall of the uterus. The rate of vaginal birth after cesarean section was significantly reduced from year to year, and the rate of repeated cesarean section is inc...

Background: With an aim to reduce the rates of repeat cesarean section in women with a previous scar, prediction of scar rupture or dehiscence is important. If we could predict the risk of rupture by measuring the scar thickness closer to term, we could pursue a trial of scar safely. Aims: To evaluate the use of ultrasound measured thickness of lower uterine segment as one of the predictors of ...

BACKGROUND Heterotopic cesarean scar pregnancy is a cesarean scar pregnancy combined with an intrauterine pregnancy that predisposes a woman to life-threatening complications such as uterine rupture and massive bleeding. Preservation of the intrauterine pregnancy in heterotopic cesarean scar pregnancy is a great challenge. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of a 33-year-old woman with heterot...

Endometriosis of a surgical scar is rare and occurs mainly when a hysterectomy or Cesarean section was performed. We describe a 54-year-old woman with a large suprapubic mass as a definite case of a endomerioid carcinoma developing within the scar endometriosis following Cesarean section. Scar endometriosis, as well as endometriosis at other sites, can turn malignant. Endometrioid carcinoma is ...
