J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12113628. [PMID: 37297823 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12113628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Contained electromechanical morcellation has emerged as a safety approach for laparoscopic myomatous tissue retrieval. This retrospective single-center analysis evaluated the bag deployment practicability and safety of electromechanical in-bag morcellation when used for big surgical benign specimens. The main age of patients was 39.3 years (range 21 to 71); 804 myomectomies, 242 supracervical hysterectomies, 73 total hysterectomies, and 1 retroperitoneal tumor extirpation were performed. A total of 78.7% of specimens weighed more than 250 g (n = 881) and 9% more than 1000 g. The largest specimens, weighing 2933 g, 3183 g, and 4780 g, required two bags for complete morcellation. Neither difficulties nor complications related to bag manipulation were recorded. Small bag puncture was detected in two cases, but peritoneal washing cytology was free of debris. One retroperitoneal angioleiomyomatosis and three malignancies were detected in histology (leiomyosarcoma = 2; sarcoma = 1); therefore, patients underwent radical surgery. All patients were disease-free at 3 years follow-up, but one patient presented multiple abdominal metastases of the leiomyosarcoma in the third year; she refused subsequent surgery and was lost from follow-up. This large series demonstrates that laparoscopic bag morcellation is a safe and comfortable method to remove large and giant uterine tumors. Bag manipulation takes only a few minutes, and perforations rarely occur and are easy to detect intraoperatively. This technique did not result in the spread of debris during myoma surgery, potentially avoiding the additional risk of parasitic fibroma or peritoneal sarcoma.

Ultrastruct Pathol 2023; 47:1-12.

Abstract
The association between uterine smooth muscle fibroids and systemic arterial hypertension is poorly understood. Therefore, we explored possible concomitant myocyte pathology of systemic resistance-sized arterioles (200 to 400 μm), isolated from omental samples donated by 19 women (mean age 42 y; SE 1) undergoing fibroid surgery. Vessels of 17 women (8 hypertensives) were available for transmission electron microscopy. We found ultrastructural vessel wall abnormalities in all patients, albeit with greater severity in hypertensives. In the endothelium, this ranged from moderate mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress in normotensives, to necrosis and sloughing in hypertensives. Myocyte-like cells were observed to migrate across the internal elastic lamina, with isolated subendothelial myocytes in normotensives, and focal subendothelial multicellular aggregates or myo-intimal "cushions" in hypertensives. Medial myocytes of all patients showed abnormalities similar to fibroids, with dilated sarco-endoplasmic reticulum, elongated mitochondria, and myofilament loss involving focal areas or entire cells. To our knowledge, the first study on the ultrastructure of systemic resistance arterioles of women with fibroids indicates that severe abnormalities are present that likely affect blood pressure regulation. Whether these perturbations are induced by fibroids, or represent systemic pathology that affects myocytes of both uterine and vascular tissue warrants further exploration.

Comparison of surgical and obstetric outcomes in women with uterine leiomyomas after laparoscopic vs. abdominal myomectomy: A single-center cohort study. Front Surg 2022; 9:997078. [PMID: 36636585 PMCID: PMC9831055 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.997078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 12/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Our aim was to study the advantages, complications and obstetrical outcomes of laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) compared with abdominal myomectomy (AM). We conducted a retrospective cohort study at La Paz University Hospital that included LMs and AMs performed between 2012 and 2018, analyzing 254 myomectomies (142 AMs [55.7%] and 112 LMs [43.9%]). The mean number of fibroids was 1.8 ± 1.5 and 3 ± 2.9 for the LM and AM groups, respectively (p < 0.006). The mean size of the largest myoma was 7.6 cm ± 2.7 cm and 10.2 cm ± 5.4 cm for the LM and AM groups, respectively (p < 0.001). LMs were associated with longer surgical times (p < 0.001) and shorter hospitalizations (p = 0.001). There were no significant differences in the intraoperative and postoperative complication rates (p = 0.075 and p = 0.285 for LM and AM, respectively). The subsequent pregnancy rate was higher for the LM group (30.8% vs. 16.8%, p = 0.009), with a vaginal delivery rate of 69% and no cases of uterine rupture.

New Insights on the Minimal-Invasive Therapy of Cervical Cancer. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11164919. [PMID: 36013158 PMCID: PMC9410452 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11164919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: The ideal management of early-stage cervical cancer has become the subject of a global controversy following the publication of a prospective study in 2018 that reported a worse oncologic outcome when comparing the minimally invasive approach to the laparotomy approach. The discussion involves both prospective and retrospective data and general and theoretical considerations. We wanted to look at the data available today and review the different opinions, offering an impartial assessment of the ongoing controversy. Methods: The available literature was reviewed, focusing on articles arguing for and against minimally invasive surgery in cervical cancer. We tried to avoid any fundamental bias, as is often evident in the available reviews on the subject. Literature both before and after the 2018 publication was taken into consideration. Results: As is usual in discussions of concepts, the literature that is now available provides arguments for both sides of this challenging issue, depending on one’s standpoint. Science-related writing is not immune to trends. There is a curious shift in opinion seen before and after 2018. One must question whether there was a prejudice in favor of minimally invasive surgery prior to the publication of the NEJM articles and a bias against it afterward. Conclusion: Whether further minimally invasive surgery for cervical cancer is invariable is tied to the more pressing question of how this surgery will have to be centralized in the future. Unless these questions are linked, no satisfactory solution can be found.

Intraperitoneal Triamcinolone Reduces Postoperative Adhesions, Possibly through Alteration of Mitochondrial Function. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11020301. [PMID: 35053996 PMCID: PMC8779954 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11020301] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 12/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Adhesions frequently occur postoperatively, causing morbidity. In this noninterventional observational cohort study, we enrolled patients who presented for repeat abdominal surgery, after a history of previous abdominal myomectomy, from March 1998 to June 20210 at St. Vincent’s Catholic Medical Centers. The primary outcome of this pilot study was to compare adhesion rates, extent, and severity in patients who were treated with intraperitoneal triamcinolone acetonide during the initial abdominal myomectomy (n = 31) with those who did not receive any antiadhesion interventions (n = 21), as documented on retrospective chart review. Adhesions were blindly scored using a standard scoring system. About 32% of patients were found to have adhesions in the triamcinolone group compared to 71% in the untreated group (p < 0.01). Compared to controls, adhesions were significantly less in number (0.71 vs. 2.09, p < 0.005), severity (0.54 vs. 1.38, p < 0.004), and extent (0.45 vs. 1.28, p < 0.003). To understand the molecular mechanisms, human fibroblasts were incubated in hypoxic conditions and treated with triamcinolone or vehicle. In vitro studies showed that triamcinolone directly prevents the surge of reactive oxygen species triggered by 2% hypoxia and prevents the increase in TGF-β1 that leads to the irreversible conversion of fibroblasts to an adhesion phenotype. Triamcinolone prevents the increase in reactive oxygen species through alterations in mitochondrial function that are HIF-1α-independent. Controlling mitochondrial function may thus allow for adhesion-free surgery and reduced postoperative complications.

Abstract
Robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) has broadened the indications even in complex myomas. However, the high cost of RALM remains the main disadvantage. Therefore, a surgical technique that can reduce the cost of RALM and still has the advantages of robotic surgery is required. We propose a "locking suture on myoma (LSOM)" technique and compared the operative and perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent RALM with or without the LSOM technique. We included 337 patients who underwent RALM with (n = 160) or without (n = 177) the LSOM technique between March 2019 and August 2020. The LSOM group had low parity and gravidity, with a low rate of Cesarean sections. Myoma type was not different between the groups; however, patients in the LSOM group had larger, heavier, and higher number of myomas, although fewer patients had multiple myomas and were discharged earlier. Total operating time, estimated blood loss, pre- and postoperative hemoglobin levels, transfusion rate, and postoperative fever were not different between the two groups. In conclusion, the LSOM technique may be a viable surgical option for myomas, as it can reduce the cost of RALM by obviating the need for robotic Tenaculum forceps.

Abstract
PURPOSE Here, we compared the operative and perioperative outcomes between robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) and abdominal myomectomy (AM) in patients with large (>10 cm) or heavy myomas (>250 g). MATERIALS AND METHODS We included 278 patients who underwent multi-port RALM (n=126) or AM (n=151) for large or heavy myomas in a tertiary care hospital between April 2019 and June 2020. The t-test, chi-square, Bonferroni's test, and multiple linear regression were used. RESULTS No differences were observed in age, body mass index, parity, or history of pelvic surgery between the two groups. Myoma diameters were not different (10.8±2.52 cm vs. 11.2±3.0 cm, p=0.233), but myomas were lighter in the RALM group than in the AM group (444.6±283.14 g vs. 604.68±368.35 g, respectively, p=0.001). The RALM group had a higher proportion of subserosal myomas, fewer myomas, fewer large myomas over >3 cm, lighter myomas, and longer total operating time. However, the RALM group also had shorter hospital stay and fewer short-term complications. Estimated blood loss (EBL) was not different between the two groups. The number of removed myomas was the most significant factor (coefficient=10.89, p<0.0001) affecting the EBL. CONCLUSION RALM is a feasible myomectomy technique even for large or heavy myomas. RALM patients tend to have shorter hospital stays and fewer postoperative fevers within 48 hours. However, RALM has longer total operating time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was performed to quantify hidden blood loss (HBL) and explore its influential factors in myomectomy. METHODS Two hundred nine patients who underwent myomectomy by laparotomy or laparoscopy from 1 January 2017 to 31 December 2018 were analyzed. Each patient's estimated blood volume and total blood loss (TBL) were calculated by the Nadler formula and Gross formula, respectively. The HBL was calculated by subtracting the visible blood loss (VBL) from the TBL. A multivariate linear stepwise analysis was applied to identify the influential factors of HBL in myomectomy. RESULTS The mean perioperative VBL and estimated TBL during myomectomy were 137.81 ±104.43 and 492.24 ± 225.00 mL, respectively. The mean HBL was 354.39 ± 177.69 mL, which accounted for 71.52% ± 15.75% of the TBL and was two to three times higher than the VBL. The duration of surgery, number of removed leiomyomas, and location of removed leiomyomas were independent risk factors for HBL in myomectomy. CONCLUSIONS HBL accounted for a significant percentage of TBL in myomectomy. A full understanding of the HBL in perioperative blood management may improve patients' postoperative rehabilitation.

Abstract
Myomas, also known as fibroids, are a specific characteristic of the human species. No other primates develop fibroids. At a cellular level, myomas are benign hyperplastic lesions of uterine smooth muscle cells. There are interesting theoretical concepts that link the development of myomas in humans with the highly specific process of childbirth from an upright position and the resulting need for greatly increased "expulsive" forces during labor. Myomas might be the price our species pays for our bipedal and highly intelligent existence. Myomas affect, with some variability, all ethnic groups and approximately 50% of all women during their lifetime. While some remain asymptomatic, myomas can cause significant and sometimes life-threatening uterine bleeding, pain, infertility, and, in extreme cases, ureteral obstruction and death. Traditionally, over 50% of all hysterectomies were performed for fibroids, leading to a significant healthcare burden. In this article, we review the developments of the past 20 years with regard to multiple new treatment strategies that have evolved during this time.
