background: premature ovarian failure (pof) is a common condition; its incidence is estimated to be as great as 1 in 100 by the age of 40 years. physiologic replacement of ovarian steroid hormones seems rational until the age of normal menopause. temporary return of ovarian function and pregnancy may occur rarely in women with pof. we report a case of pof who conceived during hormone replacemen...

BACKGROUND/AIM Radical prostatectomy (RP) provides the best cancer control in patients with clinically prostate gland confined cancer. Multiple models and nomograms combining preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) serum level, clinical stage and Gleason score have been developed to predict the probability of metastatic disease. In prostate cancer (PC) the presence of metastases to the pel...

Background: Pregnancy and childbirth are the main causes of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD). Although muscle tension is typically measured at 42 days postpartum to assess severity PFD provide timely rehabilitation, it still impossible predict take targeted preventive measures in clinical practice. A prediction model based on big data obtained prenatal check-ups was established this study allow f...

Pelvic trauma is a complex condition with lesions that might extend to the peritoneal organs, spinal cord or adjacent bones. Causes of trauma in this region are diverse, with various degrees of incidence corresponding to different geographical areas – traffic accidents tend to be more common in Western countries, while military conflicts are responsible for more traumas in war regions. Other po...

To assess the incidence of ectopic pregnancy (EP) in infertile patients undergoing Medically Assisted Procreation (MAP) and to identify factors associated with its occurrence. In this single center retrospective study, all couples MAP procedures from 2009 2018 were included. The EP rates analyzed by major time-related risk using logistic regression analysis. total 27,377 treatment cycles review...

PURPOSE To investigate the range of collimation errors in x-ray rooms and to calculate their possible effects on the radiation dose for anteroposterior pelvic examinations. METHODS A collimator test tool was suspended at 3 heights (14, 21, and 28 cm) above the table Bucky in 9 x-ray rooms. Heights corresponded to the typical patient thickness (mean, ± 2 SD) of 67 patients undergoing anteropos...

OBJECTIVES The presence and severity of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) symptoms are thought to vary by microbiological etiology but there is limited empirical evidence. We sought to estimate and compare the rates of hospitalisation for PID temporally related to diagnoses of gonorrhoea and chlamydia. METHODS All women, aged 15-45 years in the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW), with ...

prise about 2% of all fractures, but the incidence is increasing due to increasing numbers of high-speed vehicular crashes and suicide attempts. Mortality associated with isolated pelvic injury, independent of severity, has been reported to be low: 1%–2%. Among multiply injured victims of blunt trauma, however, almost 20% have injuries to the pelvic ring. In this group, when closed pelvic ring ...
