Postpartum Necrotizing Myositis With Endometrial Prolapse
CONCLUSIONS: Although rare, postpartum necrotizing myositis should be considered in postpartum patients presenting with fever, abdominal pain, severe infection symptoms, and abnormal vaginal discharge. Culture and sensitivity testing are recommended to direct appropriate antibiotic therapy.PMID:38513235 | DOI:10.1097/AOG.0000000000005556 (Source: Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Regular follow-up with cervical cytology is of questionable value following surgical treatment of microinvasive cervical cancer
CONCLUSIONS: Microinvasive cervical cancer is effectively managed with conservative surgery. There were no recurrent cancers detected in our cohort during follow-up and there were only 2 high grade dyskaryoses detected (n = 2/510, 0.39 %). We therefore believe that reducing the intensity of follow up of these patients should be considered.PMID:38513505 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.03.020 (Source: Reproductive Biology)

Urinary tract injuries during hysterectomy for endometriosis: a NSQIP study
Urinary tract injuries following hysterectomy are rare, though endometriosis is a known risk factor. Rates of injury in this setting following wide adoption of laparoscopy are of interest. (Source: American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology)

Natural experiment: clinical pathway for hysterectomy care in a statewide surgical collaborative leads to fewer complications and more efficient care
Reducing complications and improving efficiency is an imperative for quality improvement (QI) in healthcare. To guide healthcare teams in best practices, a statewide surgical quality collaborative developed a clinical pathway of favored practices for hysterectomy.

Views and values of the uterus across the united states – a multicenter mixed-methods analysis (VUterus)
Traditionally, counseling for a hysterectomy procedure is focused on surgical and treatment outcomes. With the growing number of uterine-preserving procedures available for benign gynecologic conditions, there is a need to understand the value that women place on the uterus.

The impact of social determinants and social support on surgical outcomes among hysterectomy patients during the COVID-19 pandemic
Gynecologic surgery outcome research during the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic is lacking. There exists limited investigation regarding the impact of mental health, social support, and socioeconomic status on gynecology patients during the pandemic.

Hemostatic agent use in minimally invasive hysterectomies: complications and cost
Hemostatic agents (HAs) are commonly used as adjuncts in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery to control or prevent surgical bleeding; use across discplines is increasing(1). Use of HAs in gynecologic surgery may decrease blood loss and operative time(2). HAs vary in their mechanism of action, absorption time, and cost. Data on the risk of postoperative pelvic infection/abscess after HA use at hysterectomy reveals mixed results(3,4). We sought to examine the difference in both postoperative complications and cost with use of microporous polysacharide spheres (AristaTM) and flowable gelatin-thrombin matrix (SurgifloTM) at...

Evaluating the impact of video-based surgical coaching on obstetrics and gynecology residents ’ laparoscopic suturing skills
A 2019 study revealed significant surgical case volume variability between residency programs with approximately half of graduating residents unable to meet minimum case requirements for laparoscopic hysterectomy (Hall, 2019). As such, there is a critical need for innovation in the ways we design Ob/Gyn residency surgical training. Surgical coaching involves the development of a partnership between two surgeons in which one surgeon (coach) guides the other (coachee) in identifying goals, providing feedback, and facilitating action planning.
