Second Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Wroclaw Medical University, Wroclaw, Poland.

We present recommendations on performance and safety measures of ultrasound examinations in obstetrics and gynecology during the SARS COV-2 pandemic. The statement was prepared based on the current knowledge on the coronavirus by the Ultrasound Section of the Polish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology. It has to be noted that the presented guidance is based on limited evidence and is primarily based on experiences published by authors from areas most affected by the virus thus far, such as China, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Italy. We realize that the pandemic situation is very dynamic. New data is published every day. Despite the imposed limitations related to the necessity of social distancing, it is crucial to remember that providing optimal care in safe conditions should remain the primary goal of healthcare providers. We plan to update the current guidelines as the situation develops.

Combination uterine artery embolization and hysteroscopic resection for a symptomatic uterine leiomyoma: A collaborative single-session approach for better patient care.

Authors:
Joshua Cornman-Homonoff Zhen Ni Zhou Tamatha B Fenster Marc H Schiffman

Clin Imaging 2021 Jan 30;77:111-116. Epub 2021 Jan 30.

The Department of Radiology, Division of Interventional Radiology, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, New York, NY, USA.

Uterine artery embolization (UAE) for symptomatic uterine fibroids is accompanied by transcervical fibroid expulsion in 3-15% of cases. It can be a source of significant patient distress, may require reintervention for removal, and is the most common reason for hospital readmission following UAE. Conversely, the success of hysteroscopic resection decreases with increasing fibroid size while the risk of complications increases. Read More

Rangos Sr. School of Health Sciences, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, PA 15219, United States.

Objective: Hysterectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures. Same-day discharge (SDD) is increasingly utilized for minimally invasive hysterectomies, but its uptake varies across healthcare systems and surgical specialties. An evidence-based initiative was developed to aid in the incorporation of SDD into the practice of minimally invasive hysterectomy (MIH) in the UPMC Health System. Read More

Surg Oncol 2021 Feb 13;37:101534. Epub 2021 Feb 13.

Division of Gynecologic Oncology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA.

Objectives: Routine omentectomy is generally not performed in patients with endometrial cancer unless there is evidence of gross omental metastases. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the role of omentectomy in the staging of clinical stage I high-grade endometrial carcinoma and its impact on overall survival.

Methods: Patients in the National Cancer Database who presented between 2010 and 2015 with clinical stage I serous, clear cell, carcinosarcoma, or grade 3 endometrioid carcinoma and underwent hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy were selected. Read More

Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, USA.

Background: Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate comprising a folate receptor-alpha (FRα)-binding antibody, cleavable linker, and the maytansinoid DM4, a potent tubulin-targeting agent. The randomized, open label, phase III study FORWARD I compared mirvetuximab soravtansine and investigator's choice chemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).

Patients And Methods: Eligible patients with 1-3 prior lines of therapy and whose tumors were positive for FRα expression were randomly assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, to receive mirvetuximab soravtansine (6 mg/kg, adjusted ideal body weight) or chemotherapy (paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, or topotecan).
