A Case of Retroperitoneal Leiomyoma developing after total abdominal hysterectomy.
Obstetrics & gynecology science, 2006Co-Authors: Hong Joong Lee, Kyoung Hee Han, Dong Soo Cha, Su Jeong Park, Hyo Eon Kim, In Bai Chung, Ik Yong Kim, Mee Yon KimAbstract:Leiomyomas are very common tumors in the uterus and related adjacent structures but rare in the retroperitoneal space. Retroperitoneal leiomyomas are extremely rare and have a good prognosis. Long-term follow-up reveals no metastasis but small potential for local recurrences cannot be ruled out. We report a 44-years-old woman with retroperitoneal leiomyomas who had undergone total abdominal hysterectomy and left Salpingooophorectomy 8 years ago due to uterine leiomyomas. Laparotomy was performed, and mass excision was successful.

Supracervical hysterectomy versus total abdominal hysterectomy: perceived effects on sexual function
BMC Women's Health, 2002Co-Authors: Jyot Saini, Edward Kuczynski, Herbert F Gretz, E Scott SillsAbstract:Background Our investigation sought to compare changes in sexual function following supracervical hysterectomy (SCH) and total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH). Methods A retrospective chart review was performed to identify all patients who underwent supracervical hysterectomy or total abdominal hysterectomy at a tertiary care center. Patients who met criteria for participation were sent a one page confidential, anonymous questionnaire to assess sexual function experienced both pre- and postoperatively. A total of 69 patients in each group were eligible for participation. A multiple logistic regression model was used to analyze measured variables. Results Forty-eight percent (n = 33) of women undergoing a SCH returned the questionnaire, while 39% (n = 27) of those undergoing a TAH chose to participate. There were no significant demographic differences between the two groups. Patients who underwent TAH reported worse postoperative sexual outcome than SCH patients with respect to intercourse frequency, orgasm frequency and overall sexual satisfaction ( P = 0.01, 0.03, and 0.03, respectively). Irrespective of type of hysterectomy, 35% of patients who underwent bilateral salpingoophorectomy (BSO) with hysterectomy experienced worse overall sexual satisfaction compared to 3% of patients who underwent hysterectomy alone ( P = 0.02). Conclusions Our data suggest that TAH patients experienced worse postoperative sexual function than SCH patients with respect to intercourse frequency and overall sexual satisfaction. Irrespective of type of hysterectomy, patients who underwent bilateral salpingoophorectomy experienced worse overall sexual satisfaction.

Management of recurrent endodermal sinus tumor of the ovary associated with pregnancy
Gynecologic oncology, 2011Co-Authors: Tao Tao, Jiaxin Yang, Dongyan Cao, Jun-tao Liu, Keng ShenAbstract:The patient was a 27-year-old woman (gravida 1, para 0) referred to our hospital for the recurrence of an ovarian endodermal sinus tumor at 33 weeks gestation. Laparotomy with a left Salpingooophorectomy and partial omentectomy was performed 33 months prior at her local hospital (unstaged surgery). Six cycles of chemotherapy were performed after surgery: two cycles with carboplatin and cyclophosphamide (CC) and four cycles with bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin (BEP). There was no regular follow-up after her treatments at a local hospital, and AFP kept in normal level before her pregnancy. Twenty two months after her last cycle of chemotherapy (at her 21 weeks of gestation), the patient showed a right superior abdominal pain. Pathology report from her first surgery was “ovarian endodermal sinus tumor”. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that there were several masses

Laparoscopic combined rectal anterior resection and total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy
Techniques in Coloproctology, 2006Co-Authors: N. Lakshman, R. ChangAbstract:Pelvic conditions involving both the colorectum and gynaecological organs are traditionally treated by laparotomy. We report two cases of colorectal cancer and one of endometriosis treated by laparoscopic anterior resection and total hysterectomy bilateral Salpingooophorectomy (LapAR & THBSO), at the same session. There have been no previously reported cases of the feasibility of such combined procedures, safely performed. Our results confirm that LapAR & THBSO is feasible and offers the advantages of a laparoscopic procedure in the hands of a well trained laparoscopic colorectal surgeon and gynaecologist working together.

A Case of Post-total hysterectomy with bilat. Salpingooophorectomy Retroperitoneal Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma
Obstetrics & gynecology science, 2006Co-Authors: Sung Wook Kim, Soon Ho Choi, Sang Ki Lee, Jong Jin Lee, Min Jung Kim, Tae Young Kim, Kyung Don Baik, Hyun I SonAbstract:Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a relatively rare form of uterine sarcoma. Endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) of the myometrium compose just 0.2% of uterine malignant tumors. Low-grade stromal sarcoma has extended beyond the uterus in 40% of cases at the time of diagnosis, but the extra-uterine spread is confined to the pelvis in two thirds of the cases. A few cases of extra-uterine endometrial stromal sarcoma have been reported in literature concerning the ovary and pelvis. We have experienced a Post-total hysterectomy with bilateral Salpingooophorectomy retroperitoneal endometrial stromal sarcoma, so we report this case with a brief review of literature.
