Present study was conducted with an aim to assess the changing patterns of gingivitis and periodontitis in different trimesters of pregnancy amongst pregnant and non pregnant women attending the outpatient Department of Government Hospitals in Delhi, India. Methodology: A total sample size of 800 pregnant and 800 non-pregnant women attending the O.P.D of 4 Government Hospitals of Delhi was obtained through Stratified Cluster Sampling Technique. A structured pretested assessment form was used to assess the gingival, periodontal and oral hygiene status using Gingival Index (GI), Community Periodontal Index (CPI) and Loss of Attachment (LOA) and Oral Hygiene Index-Simplified (OHI-S). Statistical analysis was done using SPSS v16.0 software package. Results: Mean GI scores was significantly high for pregnant women than non pregnant women (1.57 ± 0.51, 1.48 ± 0.35 respectively, p<0.001) and was more in 2nd trimester (1.73 ± 0.42) and 3rd trimester (1.75 ± 0.45) as compared to 1st trimester of pregnancy (1.25 ± 0.48) (p=0.001). Maximum CPI code 3 was seen in 14.6% of pregnant subjects and 8.1% of non pregnant subjects (p-0.001). Mean OHI-S score for pregnant and non-pregnant subjects was 2.89 ± 0 and 2.60 ± 1.07 respectively (p=0.002). Oral Hygiene status also worsened with increase in trimester of pregnancy, (p=0.001). Conclusion: Prevalence of the Gingival and Periodontal disease was significantly high among pregnant women and worsened with increasing gestation age Hence it is necessary to reinforce knowledge about significance of oral health in pregnant women by means of appropriate preventive and educational programs.","PeriodicalId":22164,"journal":{"name":"Surgery, gynecology & obstetrics","volume":"22 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85152640","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}

The aim of this study is to describe our experience with twin deliveries and provide this data as reference. Methods: In this retrospective study, twin deliveries occurring after 22+0 weeks of gestational age in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University Hospital Ulm were analyzed. 1663 datasets (including 3326 children) were available for analysis. Results: Over time there was an average of 83 twin births per year (median 80, range 56 - 104) in our department, with a significant increase in the number of twin births per year over time (n = 20, rs = 0.821, p < 0.001). The average maternal age was 31 years (range 17 - 47), and in the time frame maternal age significantly increased (rs = 0.167, p < 0.001). The median gestational age at delivery was 35 weeks (range 22+0 - 42+0 weeks). Overall, 400 (20.1%) twin births had a planned/elective cesarean section (C/S). In 575 (34.6%) cases both twins were delivered vaginally and in 641 (38.5%) cases both twins were delivered by secondary (unplanned / emergency) C/S. In 47 (2.8%) cases, the first twin was born vaginally, and the second twin by secondary C/S. Of the 575 vaginal twin births, both twins were born spontaneously in 471 (81.9%) and by assisted vaginal delivery in 24 (4.2%) cases. In 53 (9.2%) cases the first twin was born by assisted vaginal delivery while the second twin was born spontaneously, and for 27 (4.7%) twin births this pattern was reversed. Conclusions: The optimal mode of delivery of twins is still a subject of continuing debate. Though the database provides very detailed information on the delivery it is not possible to draw clinical conclusions from our results as these need to be evaluated in prospective randomized trials.

Aim: The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the response to treatment in women with cervical cancer with metastases to the para-aortic lymph nodes given radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy Material and Methods: The study was conducted in 40 cervical cancer patients with para-aortic lymph node metastases undergoing radiation therapy with/whitout concomitantly a cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Subsequently, total doses were set for pelvic lymph nodes and para-aortic lymph nodes, and were between 45 and 50.4Gy with dose increase to the tumor and metastatic lymph nodes for a total dose of 48.6-60Gy in 1.8 to 2.0Gy fractionation. Results: The analysis of overall survival demonstrates that OS was significantly longer in patients with local reccurence (p=0.0165) or distant metastases (p=0.0266) as compared to patients without reccurence or dissemination. An effect on overall survival (OS) was observed of emergency radiation therapy (p=0.026) but we did not observe anything particular for emergency chemotherapy. The analysis of disease-free survival time included the assessment of various parameters using the log-rank test to demonstrate that DFS was significantly longer in patients without local recurrence (p=0.0452) and distant metastases (p<0.0001) as compared to patients with dissemination. It was demonstrated that the presence of metastases caused a significantly higher risk of non-remission (OR = 42.5; +/- 95% CI: 4.58-394.45; p = 0.001), and the recurrence of the disease reduced the chance of remission (OR = 0.35; +/- 95% CI: 0.15-0.83; p = 0.016). Conclusion: It is well-known that our study has several limitations which could have influenced the results we obtained, including the small number of patients and a non-homogeneous group: some patients were operated on prior to radiotherapy +/- chemotherapy, therefore it is advisable to continue testing on larger groups of patients.","PeriodicalId":22164,"journal":{"name":"Surgery, gynecology & obstetrics","volume":"64 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90628326","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}

All countries of the world are affected by maternal mortality. Objective: The objective of this study was to study the epidemiology of maternal mortality at the Laquintinie hospital in Douala. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study with retrospective collection of data on maternal deaths at the Laquintinie Hospital in Douala from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2016. All cases of maternal death conform to the WHO definition were included. The data collected was entered and analyzed respectively by Cspro 6.3 and IBM SPSS 23 software according to age, marital status, type of occupation, parity, quality of prenatal consultation, level of education, patient's place of origin, time of arrival at the hospital and causes of death. Results: Two hundred and fifty-four (254) maternal deaths were identified during the study period for fifteen thousand four hundred and ninety-eight (15,498) live births, representing a maternal mortality rate of one thousand six hundred and thirty-eight per one hundred thousand live births (1638/100000 NV). The 25-30 age group was the most affected (33.1%) by death, with an average age of 29.26 ± 6.1 years. Housewives (51.6%), Singles (73.6%) women with primary education 54.3% were mostly affected. Hemorrhage was the leading direct cause of death (67%) followed by complications from hypertensive disease (14.1). Malaria and HIV infection were the main indirect causes. The majority (53.93%) of the women in our series died within an hour of admission. Conclusion: The maternal mortality rate at Laquintinie Hospital in Douala is 1,638 /100,000 Live Births.

Cervical length (CL) is one of the major determinants of preterm delivery. Several studies have been able to conclude that transvaginal CL assessment may be a useful tool for the prediction of preterm delivery. The risk of preterm birth varies inversely with CL measured by ultrasound in low-risk women. Objective: To evaluate and compare the predictive value of transvaginal cervical length between 11-14 weeks and 20-22 weeks of gestation in preterm labour. Material and Methods: A total of 264 pregnant women who were primigravida, singleton pregnancy, and women at gestational age 11-14 weeks and 20-22 weeks were included in the study. They were subjected for CL measurement at 11-14 and 20-22 weeks of gestation using transvaginal ultrasonography with the standard longitudinal view of the cervix while the patient’s bladder was empty. GEL VOLUSON 730 PRO Trans Vaginal Ultrasound (TVS) probe IC 5-9 H instrument with 5-9 MHz was used to measure CL. Results: The variables analyzed were the mean cervical length at 11-14 weeks and 20-22 weeks, the rate of shortening of cervical length in those who deliver at term and preterm and the cervical length at 11-14 weeks 20-22 weeks was correlated with gestational age at delivery and the predictive value of the same was determined. Cut-off of cervical length at 11-14 and 20-22 weeks of gestation was 3.73 cm and 2.89 and was statistically significant for the prediction of pre-term labour. Reduction in cervical length from 11-14 weeks to 20-22 weeks of gestation of more than 0.7 cm is predictive of preterm labour with statistical significance (p<0.001). Conclusion: Routine mid-pregnancy cervical length assessment in low-risk women can be a cost-effective method of preterm birth reduction but the implementation of such a policy is highly dependent upon local factors. If it is to be undertaken, cervical length assessment should be performed according to a standardized technique.","PeriodicalId":22164,"journal":{"name":"Surgery, gynecology & obstetrics","volume":"59 5","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72423346","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}

This case report presents an even more unusual example of invasive ductal carcinoma metastasizing to the GI tract, and with the unusual presentation of a ruptured appendix and Small bowel obstruction. Case presentation: This case report describes a 52-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with metastatic invasive ductal breast carcinoma, which had an extremely unusual presentation of severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting and perforation of the appendix and small bowel obstruction. Although tumors themselves are not an uncommon cause of SBO, metastatic breast cancer is extremely uncommon. Suspicion of breast carcinoma was initially considered after CT scan performed for abdominal pain revealed a previously unknown breast nodule. Subsequent worsening of symptoms, caused by rupture of an appendiceal metastasis, required laparotomy revealed mass of the appendix. Conclusion: This case report and review highlights that it is essential to keep an open mind regarding nonspecific symptoms, and always consider unusual presentations. Early diagnosis from appropriate and timely workup results in better patient outcomes and reduces morbidity and mortality. Invasive Ductal carcinomas of the breast very rarely metastasize to the GI tract, Invasive lobular carcinomas more commonly metastasize to the GI tract whereas invasive Ductal carcinoma metastasizes to lungs and liver.
