BACKGROUND Intramural leiomyomas have been long debated as a potential cause of infertility and pregnancy loss. FINDINGS Previous research has linked intramural fibroids to defective implantation, as well as to abnormal peristaltic events of the uterine smooth muscle. Previous reports describe the effects of intramural fibroids on normal human fertility and early pregnancy loss, specifically ...

The author thinks that the frequency with which malignant myomas occur is greatly exaggerated. in 609 cases of these tumors could establish malignancy only 6 times, and if we take into account subjected to systematic microscopic study, then 2%.

The 20-25% incidence of uterine myoma often experienced by women in childbearing age and 2% these myomas attach grow the cervical area. chief complain myom are lumps lower abdomen that getting bigger pressing on urinary bladder cause difficulty urinating accompanied bloody urine, although amount menstrual blood is still within reasonable limits. Like myomas, not fused with myometrial lining but...

OBJECTIVE Studies indicate greater heavy episodic drinking and related consequences for college student-athletes compared with nonathletes. Surprisingly, little research has examined college athletes' participation in drinking games, a context associated with excessive alcohol consumption and negative alcohol-related consequences in college students. METHOD We examined how drinking game parti...

Objective: Laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) is one of the most difficult surgical techniques. To complete LM safely, controlling intraoperative bleeding important. In this study, we retrospectively investigated relationships between size and location uterine myomas amount blood loss during at our hospital.

Laparoscopic minilaparotomy in 6 patients using the Maher abdominal elevator facilitated both quicker enucleation and morcellation of the myoma and suture of the myoma cavity. Myoma reduction in 12 patients by electrosurgery resulted in a 60% reduction in myoma diameter with failure in 2 patients. This technique may avoid myomectomy and be particularly useful in patients with infertility or nea...

The effects of catecholamines on longitudinal displacements and intramural shear strain of the arterial wall are unexplored. Therefore, the common carotid artery of five anaesthetized pigs was investigated using an in-house developed noninvasive ultrasonic technique. The study protocol included intravenous infusion of low-dose epinephrine (β-adrenoceptor activation), as well as intravenous bolu...

Thirty-nine thrombosed arterial segments of the branches of the circle of Willis were studied by a complete serial section technique. Twenty-two patients had been hypertensive and 8 had hypercholesterolemia before the onset of cerebral artery thrombosis. The histological characteristics of the thrombosed arterial segments were intramural hemorrhage in 28 segments, superficial edema of the fibro...
