[Adenomyosis. Diagnostic technique and treatment].

STUDY OBJECTIVE: A retrospective analysis of ultrasound diagnosis of adenomyosis. DESIGN: Evaluation of 149 cases of hysterectomy excluding cases of ovarian and/or cervical carcinoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Pre-operative ultrasound results were analyzed in 149 cases of hysterectomy. Uterine morphometry and myometrial echogenicity were assessed. RESULTS: Adenomyosis was diagnosed in 19 cases of hysterectomy. Preoperative ultrasound demonstrated a sensitivity of 88.8% and specificity of 94.6%. No correlations of adenomyosis with uterine leiomyomas or endometrial pathology were found. CONCLUSION: Adenomyosis was found in 12% of non-oncological cases of hysterectomy. Preoperative ultrasound established the diagnosis of adenomyosis.

[Endometriosis of the abdominal wall: diagnosis and treatment techniques].

An analysis of abdominal wall endometrioma management was performed. History of cesarean section and/or uterine surgery and ultrasound are important in the diagnosis. Danazol test may confirm the diagnosis as well as reduce tumor size before operation. HF Electrosurgery, including spray coagulation technique are recommended in all cases. Hormonal therapy, including Danazol, Medroxyprogesterone or Lynestrenol gives poor effects in cases of endometrioma.

[Transvaginal hydrolaparoscopy].

The paper presents a simple and cheap method of transvaginal hydro-laparoscopy used for the observation women pelvic organs. The method may be useful to diagnose sterility, indefinite pains the pelvis or to control the patients previously undergoing operations. Hydro-laparoscopy was carried out in 12 patients by means of a modified 3 mm hysteroscope equipped with modified Verres needle. The method worked successfully in 10 cases. The quality of the endoscopic pictures od pelvic organs was satisfactory. No complications during the operation or convalescence were observed.

[Dydrogesterone (Duphaston) in the prevention of risk of ultrasound guided amniocentesis].

Oral administration of 20 mg per day Dydrogesterone was recommended in 28 pregnancies as a prevention of risks due to ultrasound guided amniocentesis. Reduction rate (3.6% vs. 5.0%) of uterine cramping and/or uterine contraction wave, observed in US were noticed comparing to the control (n = 40). No spontaneous abortion was noticed in both groups during two weeks follow up. Amniotic fluid leakage was noticed in 2.5% of control comparing to none in the Dydrogesterone group.

[Endoscopic diagnosis of mechanic sterility].

An attempt has been made to classify mechanical tubal obliteration (proximal, distal, external obliteration). The material consisted of 798 laparoscopic procedures done in order to find the cause of female infertility. Tubal obliteration in females with secondary infertility are often associated with foci of endometriosis genitalis.

[Inversion of chromosome 10 in a fetus with osteochondrodysplasia].

The case of thanatophoric dysplasia of the fetus was described. The disease was recognized by ultrasound. Karyotyping was successful after fetal blood sampling under continuous ultrasound guidance. An inversion of chromosome 10 was detected in the affected fetus. The confirmation of the thanatophoric dysplasia was done after termination of the pregnancy. The same inversion was detected in unaffected mother. Prenatal diagnosis was made in the next pregnancy. The result was an unaffected newborn delivered on term.

Changes of certain biochemical placental components during Salbupart tocolysis.

The studies material comprised 10 placentae from pregnancies at risk for premature labour with delayed intrauterine growth of the fetus treated with Salbupart from the 32nd week of pregnancy. In placental homogenates the biochemical components were determined for fragmentary assessment of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism and production on high-energy compounds. Salbupart was found to increase the oxidation processes in the placenta. This increases the production of biologically useful chemical energy which is expressed as increased energy charge (so called Atkinson's index or adenylate energy charge). Increased energy yield of the placenta results in improved materno-fetal transport and contributes to greater weight gain of the hypotrophic fetus.
