ABSTRACT

Uterine arteriovenous malformations (AVM) may be responsible for vaginal bleeding potentially life-threatening. They are most often acquired following uterine trauma (curettage, cesarean section, artificial delivery/uterus examination) in association with pregnancy or gestational trophoblastic disease. We report three cases of patients having uterine AVM after curettage. The diagnostic management is important to avoid differential diagnoses (intra-uterine retention, hemangioma, gestational trophoblastic disease). It is based on serum hCG measurement and Doppler ultrasound, then confirmed on dynamic angio-MRI, which tends to replace angiography as first-line. The therapeutic management in cases of symptomatic AVMs is mostly embolization which offers the possibility for childbearing. Current data on subsequent pregnancies is reassuring even if they remain limited.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of a co-program of care in gestational diabetes conducted by the obstetrical and endocrinological units of the Rennes South Hospital (Hopital Sud) and the possibility of adapting obstetrical care to existing risk factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was made of 200 cases of gestational diabetes diagnosed between January 1993 and December 1996 in the obstetrical units. RESULTS: Instrumental extraction and cesarean section were required for 13.5% and 20.5% of the deliveries respectively. Shoulder dystocia occurred in 2%. 19.9% of the infants had macrosomia and 5. 3% were small for gestational age. Neonatal morbidity required transfer to the pediatric intensive care unit for only 2.9% of the infants. Frequency of cesarean section and macrosomia correlated with poor blood glucose control and excess maternal weight for gravidic hypertension. At 3 months post-partum, glucose intolerance and non-insulin-dependent diabetes were diagnosed in 13% and 2% respectively. CONCLUSION: Systemic screening and obstetrical and endocrinological care allowed patients to prevent maternal and fetal complications in gestational diabetes and to initiate hygiene and dietary habits for the prevention of post-partum non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Obstetrical care can be adapted to risk factors such as overweight, late screening or poor blood glucose control.

ABSTRACT

Seventeen cases of mixed Muller tumours (tumours of the uterus with malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components) are presented. These recently described tumours are rare and occur in menopaused women. Bloody discharge is the usual clinical manifestation, together with an increase of the volume of the uterus. Pathology examination of the surgical specimen is required for diagnosis using immunolabeling to distinguish between homologous tumours (the sarcomatous component occurs in the primary mesenchyma) and heterologous tumours (the mesenchymatous component results from a metastasis). Prognosis, usually poor, depends on the stage of the tumour. Overall survival at 5 years is about 30%. Survival in early stage I and state II tumours is no greater than 50% at 5 years. Treatment is based on radiosurgical techniques in less advanced tumours and requires radiochemotherapy in more advanced stage tumours. Recurrence is usually seen within 2 years, involving the pelvis alone in 10% of the cases and metastasis in most of the others. Because of their rapid development and poor prognosis, these tumours should be identified separately as a separate entity within a larger group of mixed mesodermic tumours.

ABSTRACT

Thrombophlebitis of the ovarian vein is a well recognized but uncommon complication during the postpartum period. We report a small series and emphasize the contribution of color Doppler and the basic therapeutic measures.

ABSTRACT

The authors report one case of sigmoid-uterine fistula of diverticular origin with a favorable outcome after an ideal colectomy associated with subtotal hysterectomy. They emphasize the rarity of this complication, due to the resistance of the uterine tissue. Its diagnosis is primarily clinical, and other examinations are required only to establish the etiological diagnosis. Surgery must be curative, ideally in one stage including the treatment of the diverticular disease and that of its gynecological consequences, which may vary according to the local conditions.
