It is responsible for up to 80% of pregnant population. By using PUQE score system, it is very convenient to categorize pregnant women with nausea and vomiting come to outpatient department (OPD) or general practice into those who can manage in community setting or those who need inpatient treatments. Objectives: Validation of PUQE instrument to assess NVP and hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) women in Sri Lanka.\u0000\u0000 Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study conducted among 160 pregnant women presented to the Gynecology Unit of Teaching Hospital Anuradhapura (ATH) during three months duration. Translated self-administered PUQE questionnaire was applied to the patients with signs and symptoms with emesis in pregnancy. All study participants were undergoing clinical judgment as a confirmation test. Diagnostic test accuracy methods were used to assess criterion validity of the experimental tool. Data were analyzed by using SPSS statistical software version 25.0.\u0000\u0000 Results: Study population has a mean age of 27.96 (SD 5.31). Majority of study participants were Sinhalese and according to the parity majority were primigravida pregnancies. Majority of study participants were diagnosed as NVP Stage II (N=134:53.8%) by the PUQE scoring system. According to the clinical judgment Stage II of NVP was diagnosed among 127 (79.4%) study participants. Mean score of the PUQE scale was 9.08 (SD=2.35). Reliability assessment of the PUQE scoring system was reported as an excellent level (Cronbach alpha=0.804). Five types of management strategies were detected among study participants. Significantly high percentage of study participants were given first line antiemetics and oral rehydration solutions. Calculated sensitivity of the PUQE scoring system to diagnose Stage I of NVP was 69.56% and specificity was 96.35%. Calculated sensitivity of the PUQE scoring system to diagnose Stage II of NVP was 100% and specificity was 78.78%. All pregnant women who were clinically detected as Stage II NVP patients were detected as Stage II NVP patients by the PUQE scoring system also. None of the false positives and false negatives regarding Stage II of NVP detected by the PUQE scoring system.\u0000\u0000 Conclusion: First line antiemetics and oral rehydration solutions are usually used for treating pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting. Stage II NVP conditions were detected with a higher prevalence when NVP status was diagnosed clinically and with PUQE scoring system. Specificity of PUQE scoring system appeared higher while detecting NVP Stage I and for NVP Stage II, sensitivity of PUQE scoring system appeared high. For Stage III NVP, clinical judgments and PUQE scoring system values were completely compatible. Management strategies used for treating pregnancy-related hyperemesis status should be further studied.

Its clinical diagnosis is difficult but it should be suspected in the presence of any bluish, painful umbilical nodule, sometimes with a brownish discharge, the evolution regulated by the menstrual cycle. Ultrasound of the abdominal wall points to the diagnosis of umbilical endometriosis despite the absence of characteristic signs on imaging. Wide surgical excision is the treatment of choice because of its resemblance to a primary tumor or metastasis. Case Report: We report the case of a 31-year-old female patient with no history of abdominal-pelvic surgery or trauma to the umbilicus, consulted for a painful umbilical swelling measuring approximately 1–2 cm diagnosed with umbilical endometriosis. Endometriosis of the umbilical wall is a rare condition, representing only 0.03–2% of extra-genital endometriosis. It is associated with pelvic endometriosis in 26% of cases. Its clinical diagnosis is difficult but it should be suspected in the presence of any bluish, painful umbilical nodule, sometimes with a brownish discharge, the evolution regulated by the menstrual cycle. Ultrasound of the abdominal wall with a high frequency probe is the initial, easily accessible examination that points to the diagnosis of umbilical endometriosis, but it is not pathognomonic. The formal diagnosis of umbilical endometriosis is only obtained with the help of histological examination. The presence of endometrial glands (epithelial cells) and a cytogenic chorion in the ectopic endometrial tissue is necessary to establish the histological diagnosis. In general, medical treatment with danazol, norethisterone, or luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogues is recommended before surgery. It would allow a reduction in the size of the endometriotic nodules. Conclusion: Umbilical endometriosis is a very rare form of extra-genital endometriosis. The diagnosis is made when a nodule is present with pain and catamenial bleeding. The diagnosis of certainty is based on a histological study.","PeriodicalId":436406,"journal":{"name":"Edorium Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics","volume":"88 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139151984","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}

Transvaginal Doppler ultrasonography showed a small cystic structure accompanied by neither a yolk sac nor surrounding marginal flow, adjacent to the uterine scar, and a 16-mm-large low-echo area with a white ring in the left adnexa. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging also demonstrated a small cystic structure without contrast enhancement resembling a pseudo-gestational sac adjacent to the cesarean scar. Moreover, a cystic structure with ring-enhancement beside the left ovary, which mimicked an ectopic gestational sac, was also detected. Given these imaging findings and slightly elevated serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) levels, ectopic pregnancy in the left fallopian tube could not be ruled out.
