the incidence of microbial keratitis after intacs implantation is extremely low and channel infection has been infrequently reported. we present a 23-year-old woman with keratoconus of both eyes who underwent implantation of two intrastromal corneal ring segments (intacs, keravision, inc., fremont, ca, usa) in the right eye. after 2.5 months, the patient presented with decreased vision, inflamm...

background: submucous myomas may be associated with menorrhagia, infertility and dysmenorrhea. objective: the aim of this study was to determine the long term effects of submucousal myoma resection on menorrhagia and infertility; also to detect whether the type, size, and location of myoma affect the surgical success. materials and methods: .totally 98 women referred to hysteroscopy for symptom...

in this study, we demonstrate the appearance of anatomic defects of the uterine cavity on hsg after cesarian section. we define different shapes such as thin linear defect, focal saccular outpouching, unilateral or bilateral diverticula (dog-ear like) and fistula and different locations such as the uterine body, lower uterine segment, uterine isthmus and the upper endocervical canal. cesarean s...

the aim of this study was to assess the effect of spinal block with low dose of bupivacaine and sufentanil on patients with low cardiac output who underwent lower limb surgery. fifteen patients who had ejection fraction less than 40% (group 1) were compared with 65 cases with ejection fraction more than 40% (group 2) in our study. our subjects underwent spinal block with 7.5 mg hyperbaric bupiv...

Cervico-isthmic pregnancy is a rare and potentially life-threatening form of ectopic gestation in which the blastocyst implants in the uterine cervico-isthmus between the histological and anatomical internal os, followed by subsequent extension to the lower uterine segment. Early diagnosis may allow a conservative therapeutic approach that avoids catastrophic hemorrhage requiring hysterectomy. ...

Massive postpartum haemorrhage after Cesarean section for placenta previa is a common occurrence. The bleeding is usually from the placental bed at the lower uterine segment. Uterine tamponade has a role in the management of such patients especially when fertility is desired. We describe here a case of massive postpartum haemorrhage, which was managed, with the use of a Sengstaken-Blakemore tub...

The risk of uterine scar dehiscence and uterine rupture is inversely related to the lower uterine segment (LUS) thickness as measured by ultrasound. Three dimensional ultrasound can increase the reliability of ultrasound in prediction of scar dehiscence. Transvaginal three dimensional ultrasound measurement of the muscular layer thickness of the lower uterine segment seems to be the most reliab...
