This highlights the need for national guidelines, the creation and validation of structured training programmes to improve accuracy, or using fixed-angle devices such as the EPISCISSORS-60 or other proven measurement aids to minimise preventable harm due to human error.

ConclusionReducing ovoid loading significantly decreased the doses to vaginal dose points and the rectum without compromising the dose to the Clinical Target Volume (CTV). Therefore, in carefully selected cases, the adoption of tandem-only loading or reduced ovoid loading could be considered to minimize vaginal morbidity following high dose rate intracavitary brachytherapy.

MPNST of Uterine Round Ligament: A Report of a Surgically Challenging Aggressive Rare Case and Literature Review
AbstractMPNSTs (malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours) arise rarely from the female genital tract, even more rarely from the uterus.

It was the first time a uterine lesion (not uterine cervix) was defined in a neurofibromatosis patient. This was a young patient who initially underwent a uterus-sparing surgery for a round ligament tumour which was finally diagnosed to be MPNST. She received adjuvant chemotherapy but recurre...

Correlation of Serum Cancer Antigen-125 (CA-125) Levels with Severity of Pre-eclampsia

More studies on a larger scale are required to prove the usefulness of this marker with respect to maternal and perinatal outcome as well as its association with pre-eclampsia and its severity.
