We aimed to describe clinical characteristics of deliveries with asymptomatic COVID-19 infection, investigate transplacental transmission, and compare first-line histopathological findings with healthy controls. Material and Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study of consecutive term deliveries at our tertiary hospital's obstetric unit between March and November 2021. Forty-five patients with asymptomatic reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) positivity were matched with 45 controls with negative RT-PCR testing. All newborns of mothers with positive RT-PCR results for COVID-19 underwent a nasopharyngeal swab following delivery, and Apgar scores of the newborns were extracted from pediatric charts. Placentas were transported and fixated in 10% formaldehyde solution before pathological evaluation. Results: There were no significant differences in Apgar scores, birth weights, head circumferences, birth height, and genders between the 2 groups. RT-PCR results were negative in all of the newborns, indicating no vertical transmission. Placental focal and global calcification, and choriamnionitis frequencies were similar between the groups, whereas placental fibrin deposits were significantly more frequent in the placentas of infected pregnancies. Conclusion: There was no evidence of vertical transmission and any characteristic feature in the placentas of pregnancies with asymptomatic COVID-19 infection. Although no significant clinical implication was found, increased perivillous fibrin deposition in the study group could be a baseline step for the progression of perinatal infection.","PeriodicalId":137134,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121542823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and Methods: In this retrospective study, the pathology archives of our center were evaluated and 90 high risk endometrial carcinoma cases that were examined intraoperatively, between 2005-2017 were analyzed. The following criteria were used to identify high-risk endometrial carcinoma cases: Grade 3 endometrioid carcinomas with lymphovascular invasion and/or myometrial invasion of more than half, tumors of stage 2, 3, 4 and non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma. Results: Histopathological subtyping was accurate in 52 of the 57 cases of endometrioid carcinoma, 3 of the 20 cases of serous carcinoma and 1 of the 4 cases of clear cell carcinoma. None of the patients diagnosed with mixed carcinoma were accurately diagnosed in frozen section. When results of intraoperative and permenant evaluations were compared; 74.4% of the cases were compatible for histopathological subtype, 76.7% for grade, and 77.7% for myometrial invasion. Conclusion: In patients with high-risk endometrial carcinoma without a preoperative diagnosis, intraoperative evaluation is essential for determining prognostic parameters and performing surgical staging intraoperatively. Despite the careful evaluation of pathologists, the error rate is high in in- traoperative evaluation of high-risk endometrial carcinomas. In order to minimize the error rate, both gross and microscopical assessment should be performed with utmost care.","PeriodicalId":137134,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology","volume":"272 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133388021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
