PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is rare with limited evidence guiding diagnosis and treatment. The purpose of this review is to provide an update of the diagnosis, perioperative considerations, and treatment of AWE. R…
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether backfilling the bladder postoperatively will reduce time to discharge in patients undergoing outpatient laparoscopic hysterectomy. METHODS: In a single-blind, randomized, controlled trial among women undergo…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The risk-benefit ratio of concurrent appendectomy at the time of gynecologic surgery has long been debated and remains controversial. However, emerging data on the appendix's role in chronic pain syndromes point to a prev…
Objective: To describe patient demographics, determine accuracy of clinical diagnosis, and evaluate reliability of laparoscopic uterine characteristics in the diagnosis of adenomyosis. Materials and Methods: Enrollment included 117 patients…
IMPORTANCE: Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a rare but easily treated cause of pain in women, especially those who have undergone cesarean deliveries. OBJECTIVE: This article reviews the diagnosis and management of AWE, a condition t…
Pelvic pathology such as fibroids, endometriosis, adhesions from previous pelvic surgeries, or ovarian remnants can distort anatomy and pose technical challenges during laparoscopic hysterectomies. Retroperitoneal dissection to ligate the u…
INTRODUCTION: The goal of this project is to describe the development and implementation of an evidence-based hysterectomy clinical pathway to reduce unnecessary variations in care and to promote improved patient outcomes at a reduced cost.…
Studies have shown an increased risk of vaginal cuff dehiscence following total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Patient variables associated with dehiscence have not been well described. This study aims to identify factors associated with …
Abstract Introduction: Endometriosis is a largely benign, chronic inflammatory disease defined by the presence of endometrial-like glands surrounded by stroma. Epidemiologic studies suggest that endometriosis is an independent risk factor f…
PURPOSE: Mechanisms of immune dysregulation associated with advanced tumors are relatively well understood. Much less is known about the role of immune effectors against cancer precursor lesions. Endometrioid and clear-cell ovarian tumors p…
PURPOSE: Endometriosis, a largely benign, chronic inflammatory disease, is an independent risk factor for endometrioid and clear cell epithelial ovarian tumors. We aimed to identify plasma miRNAs that can be used to differentiate patients w…
OBJECTIVE: To compare laparoscopic anterior discoid resection (ADR) with low anterior resection (LAR). METHODS: This is a retrospective review of a cohort (Canadian Task Force classification II-2) of patients undergoing laparoscopic ADR or…
Abstract Objective: Examine the expression and immunogenicity of a known ovarian tumor-associated antigen, MUC1, in ectopic endometriosis lesions and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Determine whether an imbalance in CD4 T cell subsets cont…
