Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether the Institute of Medicine (IOM) guidelines for optimal gestational weight gain (GWG) in twin pregnancies are applicable to Japanese women. METHODS This was a retrospective study involving women who delivered full-term twins at our tertiary center diagnosed with a normal prepregnancy body mass index. The women were divided into two groups, according to the optimal GWG recommended by the IOM (16.8-24.5 kg): the adequate GWG (AGWG) group with GWG meeting the guidelines and the low GWG (LGWG) group with GWG below the guidelines. Next, the women were divided into two groups according to birthweight: a group with both twins born appropriate for gestational age (AGA group) and a group with one or both twins born small for gestational age (SGA group). Their GWG as well as their pregnancy outcomes were compared. RESULTS A total of 265 women were included. The AGWG group had a significantly higher proportion of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy than the LGWG group. There was no significant difference in the proportion of women with both twins born AGA or the rate of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. Meanwhile, the median GWG in the AGA group was 13.6 kg, which was significantly higher than 12.0 kg in the SGA group. And even the median GWG in the AGA group was below the lower limit of the IOM guidelines. CONCLUSION The optimal GWG for Japanese women with twin pregnancies may be below the IOM guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to assess the validity of applying the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group (IADPSG) criteria for the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) at any time during pregnancy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This multicenter cohort study was conducted at five Japanese facilities from January 2018 to April 2019. The study cohort included women at a high risk of GDM who met one or more of the following IADPSG criteria during early pregnancy: fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥92 mg/dL and 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) value of ≥180 mg/dL at 1 hour, or ≥153 mg/dL at 2 hour (hereafter early-onset GDM). Women diagnosed with early-onset GDM were followed up without therapeutic intervention and underwent the 75 g OGTT again during 24-28 weeks of gestation. Those exhibiting the GDM patterns on the second 75 g OGTT were diagnosed with true GDM and treated, whereas those exhibiting the normal patterns were diagnosed with false positive early GDM and received no therapeutic intervention. RESULTS Of the 146 women diagnosed with early-onset GDM, 69 (47%) had normal 75 g OGTT values at 24-28 weeks of gestation, indicating a false-positive result. FPG levels were significantly higher in the first 75 g-OGTT test than in the second 75 g-OGTT test (93 mg/dL and 87.5 mg/dL, respectively; p<0.001). FPG levels were high in 86 (59%) women with early-onset GDM during early pregnancy but in only 39 (27%) women during mid-pregnancy. Compared with false positive early GDM, true GDM was more frequently associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Although women with early-onset GDM were followed up without treatment, the results of repeated 75 g OGTT during mid-pregnancy were normal in about 50%. Our data did not support the adoption of IADPSG thresholds for the diagnosis of GDM prior to 20 weeks of gestation.

Abstract
AIM Reports on pregnancy and delivery in women with Turner syndrome (TS) in Japan are limited to case reports, and the current situation remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify the current situation of pregnancy and delivery in women with TS in Japan. METHODS Our study comprised primary and secondary surveys and we included perinatal centers approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. RESULTS A total of 24 cases from 19 facilities were reported, and we obtained individual information for 20 cases from 16 facilities. Of these 20 patients, 13 (65%) had become pregnant via oocyte donation. Three of these patients had received oocyte donation in Japan, while the other 10 had received donations in foreign countries. The other seven patients became pregnant with their own oocyte, with spontaneous menarche. Live babies were delivered by 18 patients, while an induced abortion was required at 18 weeks of gestation in one patient and an intrauterine fetal death from an unknown cause was detected at 38 weeks of gestation in another patient. Cesarean section was performed in 14 patients, with the most frequent indication being cephalopelvic disproportion. The rate of implementation of screening for complications related to TS was low, suggesting insufficient cooperation between facilities responsible for TS treatment, infertility and pregnancy and delivery management. CONCLUSION To improve pregnancy outcomes in women with TS, improved cooperation between facilities and laws regarding oocyte donation in Japan are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Currently, no unified set of criteria to classify preeclampsia (PE) exists. Further, no consensus has been reached whether fetal growth restriction (FGR) should be included in diagnostic criteria for PE. We examined the adequacy of including FGR in diagnostic criteria for PE. STUDY DESIGN Singleton pregnancy patients who developed PE before 34 weeks of gestation managed at a tertiary center between 2010 and 2016 were included. Patients were divided into two groups according to cause for PE diagnosis. In addition, those diagnosed with PE because of gestational hypertension (GH) and FGR were divided into two groups according to presence of proteinuria or organ dysfunction during the expectant management. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Pregnancy prolongation from PE diagnosis. RESULTS Of 69 PE patients, 18 (28.1%) were diagnosed as PE with GH and only FGR (F group). Pregnancy prolongation between PE diagnosis to delivery was longer in the F group than in PE cases with primary organ dysfunction (P group) (21 vs 10 days, P = 0.049). Of 18 patients in the F group, 12 (66.7%) subsequently had proteinuria or organ dysfunction (S group). The remaining 6 patients (33.3%) had no subsequent proteinuria or organ dysfunction (N group). There were no significant differences in prolongation of pregnancy from organ dysfunction onset to delivery between the S and P groups (10 vs 10 days, P = 0.36). CONCLUSIONS Organ dysfunction onset may reflect PE progression more accurately than FGR onset. Further investigations on whether to include FGR into the diagnostic criteria for PE are needed.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to clarify the risk factors for chlamydial infection and determine whether infection during pregnancy is associated with preterm birth in Japanese women. The subjects were women who underwent Chlamydia trachomatis polymerase chain reaction testing during a singleton pregnancy and delivered after the 22nd week of gestation at a tertiary care center between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2016. We compared Chlamydia-positive (n = 259) and Chlamydianegative (n = 1,974) groups and evaluated the pregnancy outcomes. The Chlamydia-positive group had a higher rate of public assistance coverage, smoking during pregnancy, nulliparity, lack of a partner, presence of other sexually transmitted infections, high-risk social status, and younger age (P < 0.01). The incidence of preterm births was not different between the groups, with an odds ratio of 0.95 (95% confidence interval: 0.62-1.46). The incidences of low birth weight deliveries, premature rupture of membranes, and preterm premature rupture of membranes prior to the 37th week were also comparable between the groups. Chlamydial infection during pregnancy had no effect on preterm birth, even after adjustment for confounding factors.

Abstract
A 35-year-old primiparous woman was diagnosed with Turner syndrome at the age of 12 yr
due to short stature. Her karyotype showed a mosaic pattern [45, X(19)/46, XX(11)]. She had been followed up by the pediatric
service. GH was not prescribed because, although she was of relatively short stature, her
growth trajectory was reasonable. She was started on estrogen replacement therapy at 15 yr
of age and switched to Kaufmann therapy after 1 yr. After transitioning her care to the
gynecology service at 20 yr of age, she was screened for complications and Kaufmann
therapy was continued. No abnormalities were detected in the pre-pregnancy screening. She
conceived by in vitro fertilization and embryo transplantation with
oocyte donation. No severe complications occurred during gestation, and she gave birth to
a female neonate vaginally at 41 wk and 6 d of gestation. The neonate’s birthweight was
3166 g, and her Apgar scores were 8 and 9 at 1 and 5 min, respectively. No severe
complications occurred during the postpartum period. Comprehensive medical treatment and
appropriate transition from pediatric to adult services may improve the pregnancy outcomes
of women with Turner syndrome.

Abstract
A 30-year-old woman with a bicorporeal uterus complained of abdominal pain and vaginal hemorrhage at 28 weeks and 5 days of gestation. There were no signs of placenta previa with echography in the second trimester; however, the echography showed a highly echoic area (91 × 85 mm), indicating placenta previa. Thereafter, abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding increased. Thus, we suspected placental abruption and performed cesarean section. After cesarean section, discharge of placenta-like tissue into the vagina was confirmed and pathological examination of the tissue showed only the decidua. In cases of uterine malformations, in which the uterine cavity is divided into pregnant and nonpregnant sides, the decidua on the nonpregnant side can be discharged before the onset of delivery. In addition, at the time of decidual discharge, echography findings are similar to those of placenta previa and the clinical symptoms are similar to those of placental abruption.

Abstract
Purpose An endoscopic system is needed that presents informative images irrespective of the surgical situation and the number of degrees of freedom in endoscopic manipulation. This goal may be achieved with a virtual reality view for a region of interest from an arbitrary viewpoint. An endoscopic pseudo-viewpoint alternation system for this purpose was developed and tested. Method Surgical experts and trainees from an endoscopic surgery training course at the minimally invasive surgery training center of Kyushu University were enrolled in a trial of a virtual reality system. The initial viewpoint was positioned to approximate the horizontal view often seen in laparoscopic surgery, with \documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

Abstract
Case 1. Forty nine years woman was given a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography and trans-esophageal echocardiography showed left main trunk dissection due to local aortic root dissection. We operated surgical repair at left main trunk by pericardium after percutaneous coronary intervention. Case 2. Forty nine years man was given a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction caused by left main trunk dissection due to traumatic local aortic root dissection. We operated coronary artery bypass grafting after insertion of perfusion catheter to left main trunk for maintain coronary perfusion. Although local dissection of aortic aorta is relatively rare, it is potentially complicated with coronary malperfusion. We describe 2 success a cases of surgical treatment for local acute type A aortic dissection complicated with coronary malperfusion.

Abstract
We present herein two cases of a ruptured aneurysm of the visceral artery. The first case involved a 74-year-old man with abdominal pain who was admitted to our hospital with a tentative diagnosis of intra-abdominal bleeding of unknown origin. Computed tomography revealed a hematoma in the greater curvature of the stomach. At surgery, a hematoma along the right gastroepiploic artery was found and totally removed. Histological examination showed a pseudo-aneurysm of unknown etiology. The second case involved a 68-year-old man with progressive anemia who presented with spontaneous intra-abdominal bleeding. A ruptured aneurysm of the accessory middle colic artery was diagnosed by superior mesenteric angiography. The ruptured aneurysm was ligated and totally resected without a colectomy. Histological examination showed a pseudoaneurysm of unknown etiology. The postoperative courses were uneventful, and both patients were doing well at the time of writing.

Abstract
We investigated an epidemiological study for fungus isolation in our hospital from 1976 to 2000. For 25 years, the total sample number of fungus examination were 64,296, and after 1988, the total sample number increased suddenly. As a whole, the positive ratio was constantly about 40%. When our hospital opened, the obstetrical and gynecological samples showed 38.8% for fungus examination, but recently, samples of the respiratory organ has increased. Ratio of isolation for yeast, Candida albicans was 53.8%, and another yeasts such as Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, Candida parapsilosis were 12.5%, 5.3%, and 3.4%, respectively.
