OBJECTIVE To determine the pre-malignant and malignant potential of endometrial polyps and to assess whether different clinical parameters are associated with malignancy in the polyps of premenopausal women. METHODS The clinical records of operative office hysteroscopic and resectoscopic procedures for endometrial polyps in 417 premenopausal women who attended Baskent University were examined...

UNLABELLED Cecal endometriosis and ileocolic intussusception due to a cecal endometriosis is extremely rare. We report a case of a woman who presented an ileocecal intussusception due to a cecal endometriosis. The patient gave two months history of chronic periombilical pain requiring regular hospital admission and analgesia. The symptoms were not related to menses. A laparotomy was performed a...

introduction low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (lg-ess) is a malignant intrauterine tumor that rarely presents with distant metastasis. simultaneous lung and cardiac metastases from lg-ess is also an extremely rare event. case presentation a 42-year-old woman presented with dyspnea and exercise intolerance. she had a history of hysterectomy and left salpingoophorectomy. she underwent second...

Abstract We present a case report of an unexpected pathology in addition to rare complication 62-year-old female following anterior exenteration and abdominal wall reconstruction. Initial biopsies characterised the malignancy as potential urachal adenocarcinoma, but final revealed solitary endometrial adenocarcinoma metastasis from cancer 6 years previously. Due nature tumour, resection was req...

Leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) is an extremely rare condition, which is characterized by the presence of multiple peritoneal and subperitoneal nodules composed of bland smooth muscle cells. Albeit extremely rare, coexistence of endometriosis within LPD lesions has also reported. Herein, we report the seventh documented case of LPD coexisting with endometriosis within the same les...

Objectives: To retrospectively and prospectively investigate the pregnancy outcomes after hysteroscopy (H/S) for septum resection in patients detected to have a uterine presenting with history of recurrent loss (RPL), diagnosis secondary infertility or primary infertility.
 Methods: This study included 62 RPL who underwent hysteroscopic resection. Patients had anomalies other than septum, ...

Enteroglucagon has been implicated as a tropic hormone in the control of intestinal adaptation. Because cells producing enteroglucagon are located mainly in the distal small bowel (and colon), ileal resection might be expected to produce less adaptive change than a jejunal resection of equivalent length. This hypothesis was tested in male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 40) weighing 184.0 +/- 7.3 g an...

Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) accounts for approximately 20% of all uterine sarcomas and presents, at a mean age, around 50 years of age. Half of the patients are premenopausal. ESS often manifests as an endometrial polyp and 60% of cases present with FIGO stage I disease. The natural history is one of slow growing indolent disease. Typical microscopic findings include a uniform population ...
