Reviewing 780 IVF cycles with buserelin commenced in the luteal phase and human menopausal gonadotrophin administered from day 4 of the ensuing menses 53 cycles with ovarian cysts were identified. Of the 53 cycles with cysts day 4 serum oestradiol concentrations were significantly (p<0.05) higher in cancelled cycles than cycles proceeding to oocyte retrieval, but no significant difference was seen in day 4 serum progesterone and androstenedione concentrations. Twenty three of the latter 53 cycles had a day 4 serum oestradiol >200 pmol/l (95th centile for cycles without apparent cysts). These 23 cycles had a significantly higher cancellation rate (p<0.05) and fewer grade 1 embryos per oocyte retrieval (p<0.05) than the other 30 cycles with cysts. Of a further 288 IVF cycles studied, functional ovarian cysts (with day 4 serum oestradiol >200 pmol/l) developed in 16 cycles during pituitary downregulation. Cysts were aspirated in 10 of the latter 16 cycles. Oestradiol, androstenedione and progesterone concentrations were measured in 9 of the latter cyst aspirates. The cyst aspirates had significantly lower progesterone (p<0.001), higher androstenedione (p<0.01) and similar oestradiol concentrations compared to 10 follicular fluid samples collected at the time of oocyte retrieval. Further support that the cysts were follicular cysts came from a significant (p<0.01) rise in serum oestradiol concentrations despite a significant (p<0.01) fall in serum progesterone concentrations from the day buserelin had been commenced to day 4 of the IVF cycle.

    Diagnosis and Management of Adnexal Masses VANESSA GIVENS, MD; GREGG MITCHELL, MD; CAROLYN HARRAWAY-SMITH, MD; AVINASH REDDY, MD; and DAVID L. MANESS, DO, MSS, University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Medicine, Memphis, Tennessee Adnexal masses represent a spectrum of conditions from gynecologic and nongynecologic sources. They may be benign or malignant. The initial detection and evaluation of an adnexal mass requires a high index of suspicion, a thorough history and physical examination, and careful attention to subtle historical clues. Timely, appropriate labo- ratory and radiographic studies are required. The most common symptoms reported by women with ovarian cancer are pelvic or abdominal pain; increased abdominal size; bloating; urinary urgency, frequency, or incontinence; early satiety; difficulty eating; and weight loss. These vague symptoms are present for months in up to 93 percent of patients with ovarian cancer. Any of these symptoms occurring daily for more than two weeks, or with failure to respond to appropriate therapy warrant further evaluation. Transvaginal ultrasonography remains the standard for evaluation of adnexal masses. Findings suggestive of malignancy in an adnexal mass include a solid component, thick septations (greater than 2 to 3 mm), bilaterality, Doppler flow to the solid component of the mass, and presence of ascites. Fam- ily physicians can manage many nonmalignant adnexal masses; however, prepubescent girls and postmenopausal women with an adnexal mass should be referred to a gynecologist or gynecologic oncologist for further treatment. All women, regardless of menopausal status, should be referred if they have evidence of metastatic disease, ascites, a complex mass, an adnexal mass greater than 10 cm, or any mass that persists longer than 12 weeks.

Abstract A 20 year old illiterate woman who had a spontaneous first trimester abortion followed by instrumental evacuation, presented 4 days later with sudden onset of pain and distension of abdomen along with difficulty in breathing. On examination, she was tachypnoeic, icteric with tachycardia. Abdominal examination revealed guarding and rigidity along with free fluid and vague mass in lower abdomen. Gynaecological examination showed purulent discharge through os with bogginess in all fornices. USG revealed echogenic fluid with bilateral large ovarian masses containing multiple small cysts. Laparotomy was performed with a provisional diagnosis of ruptured theca leutein cysts after 24 hrs of administration of broad spectrum antibiotics. There were bilateral theca leutein cysts of more than 10X15 cm, the left of which has ruptured and the right on the verge of rupture.

ABSTRACT Hyperreactio luteinalis (HL) refers to pregnancy related moderate to marked enlargement of the ovaries due to multiple benign theca lutein cysts. It is caused due to elevated Human chorionic gonadotropins leading to maternal complications such as preeclampsia and preterm delivery may result. We report case of a 24 years old lady, G3P1A1L1 with spontaneous twin pregnancy at 13 weeks + 4 days gestation presented with chief complaint of lower abdominal pain on exertion for 5 days. Ultrasonography (USG) showed a large left ovarian mass in Pouch of Douglas pushing uterus up and extending into the left side of midline upto costal cartilage. It showed multiple thick septations with vascularity pointing towards malignancy. CA-125 was elevated to 193U/ml.

  • 1. Upward Movement of the Thyroid Gland Is Prevented Due To?
    1. Upward movement of the thyroid gland is prevented due to? a) Berry ligament b) Pretracheal fascia c) Sternothyroid muscle d) Thyrohyoid membrane Correct Answer - B Ans: B. Pretracheal fascia The thyroid gland is covered by a thin fibrous capsule, which has an inner and an outer layer. The inner layer extrudes into the gland and forms the septum that divides the thyroid tissue into microscopic lobules. The outer layer is continuous with the pretracheal fascia, attaching the gland to the cricoid and thyroid cartilages via a thickening of the fascia to form the posterior suspensory ligament of the thyroid gland also known as Berry's ligament. This causes the thyroid to move up and down with the movement of these cartilages when swallowing occurs. Gray's Anatomy: The Anatomical Basis of Clinical Practice, 41e ,Page no 470 2.

  • Experience of Persistent Gestational Trophoblastic Disease in a Tertiary
    Bangladesh J Obstet Gynaecol, 2012; Vol. 27(2) : 50-56 Experience of Persistent Gestational Trophoblastic Disease in a Tertiary Medical College Hospital, Bangladesh NAHAR KAMRUN1, YESMIN HALIMA2, ROY KANIKA3, ALAM SAFIUL4, KHATUN KASHEFA5 Abstract: Objectives: To study the clinical presentation and risk factors of persistent trophoblastic disease and its outcome of treatment with chemotherapy. Materials and methods: This observational study was carried out on fifty patients of persistent trophoblastic disease who were admitted in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Mymensingh Medical Hospital (MMCH) during one year period. Evaluation of disease was done by thorough clinical examination and a set of investigations including chest radiography, ultrasound scan of abdomen and pelvis and estimation of serum â hCG. The four factors under analysis of PTD were age of the patient, clinical presentation, gestational age at diagnosis of molar pregnancy and nature of antecedent pregnancy. Patients with non-metastatic trophoblastic disease and low risk metastatic trophoblastic disease were offered single agent chemotherapy with methotrexate and folinic acid rescue in consultation with the oncologist. When β hCG response was inadequate, multi-agent chemotherapy was given. Complications of chemotherapy were also observed and supportive treatment was given. Results: Out of 50 patients, 49 (98%) patients had antecedent molar pregnancy and 1(2%) had missed abortion. In cases of post molar trophoblastic disease, 28 (57.58%) were in 20-30 yrs. Mean ± SD was 31.35 ± 7.25. In these cases gestational size of molar pregnancy was between 16-20 weeks in 24 (48.98%), <16 wks in 19 (38.78%) and >20 wks in 6 (12.24%) cases.
