Heterotopic pregnancy is defined as the simultaneous presence of gestation in two different sites, typically comprising an intrauterine pregnancy and an ectopic pregnancy. Due to the widespread use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART…
Background/Objectives: Rarely, primary (PriCs) or metastatic (metECs) carcinomas occur in the episiotomy site. Methods: A systematic literature review of metECs was carried out. We reviewed the PRISMA guidelines and the Scopus, Pubmed, and …
Episiotomy is a perineal incision enlarging the vaginal opening during labor, preventing severe perineal/vaginal/ano-rectal lacerations. We performed a systematic literature review (PRISMA guidelines; Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science datab…
Background and Objectives: This article investigates the transformative impact of 3D and bio 3D printing technologies in assisted reproductive technology (ART), offering a comprehensive review of their applications in improving reproductive…
Uterine leiomyomas usually arise from the uterine body (95%), and rarely from the cervix (0.6%) or other urogenital sites. Lipoleiomyomas are benign, uncommon variants of leiomyomas (0.03-0.2%), histologically composed of smooth muscle cell…
OBJECTIVE: We illustrate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of endometriosis. BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynaecological condition affecting women of reproductive age and may cause pelvic pain and infertility. It is c…
OBJECTIVE: We propose a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) guided approach to differential diagnosis of ovarian tumours based on morphological appearance. BACKGROUND: Characterization of ovarian lesions is of great importance in order to pla…
OBJECTIVE: We illustrate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of non-neoplastic tubaric conditions. BACKGROUND: A variety of pathologic non-neoplastic conditions may affect the fallopian tubes. Knowledge of their imaging appearanc…
PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to prospectively determine the diagnostic capabilities of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in detecting myometrial and cervical invasion and lymph node involvement in endometrial carcinoma and to identify t…
