Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1771-1778

Ovarian granulosa cell tumor (GCT) is a rare, low-grade malignant tumor that accounts for 70% of the sex cord-stromal tumors. It has two histopathologic types with different clinical and biologic features: adult GCT and juvenile GCT. Most women diagnosed with the adult GCT have a favorable prognosis, with a 5-year survival rate of 97%–98%, but adult GCT has a feature of late relapse; the recurrence time could be more than 20 years after diagnosis. Juvenile GCT has a survival rate of 97% in stage I and a 5-year survival rate of 0%–22% in advanced stage with earlier recurrence than adult GCT. Consequently, the scenario emphasizes the need for early diagnosis, standardized treatment protocols, and long-term follow up. However, there is a lack of consensus regarding accurate diagnosis of GCT and adjuvant treatment. Furthermore, GCT tends to occur in young women, which emphasizes the viability of fertility-sparing surgery. The current review performed a systematic literature review of 60 articles to summarize the latest advances in GCT, with an emphasis on the molecular pathogenesis and survival after fertility-sparing surgery. We found that young women with fertility-sparing surgery had a desirable reproductive and survival outcome compared with those undergoing radical surgery.

The combined use of endometrial ablation or resection and levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system in women with heavy menstrual bleeding: A systematic review

Tamara J. Oderkerk,Majorie M.A. van de Kar,Carlijn H.M. van der Zanden,Peggy M.A.J. Geomini,Malou C. Herman,Marlies Y. Bongers,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14219

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1779-1787

Despite endometrial ablation/resection being a very successful treatment for women with heavy menstrual bleeding, re-intervention with additional surgery is needed in 12%–25% of cases. Introducing a levonorgestrel-intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) immediately after ablation could preserve the integrity of the uterine cavity and suppress the regenerated or non-ablated endometrial tissue. Therefore, this combined treatment can perhaps lower the re-intervention rate. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the impact of the combined treatment.

The diagnostic accuracy of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) for discriminating between benign and malignant pelvic masses: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Maria Olsen,Pien Lof,Anna Stiekema,Daan van den Broek,Erica A. Wilthagen,Patrick M. Bossuyt,Christianne A. R. Lok,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14224

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1788-1799

Many women with benign pelvic masses, suspected of ovarian cancer, are unnecessarily referred for treatment at specialized centers. There is an unmet clinical need to improve diagnostic assessment in these patients. Our objective was to obtain summary estimates of the accuracy of human epididymis protein (HE4) for diagnosing ovarian cancer and to compare the performance of HE4 with that of cancer antigen 125 (CA125).

Streptococcus agalactiae do not penetrate human chorioamniotic membranes in vitro but alter their biomechanical properties

Nasteha A. Mohamed,Mogens Hinge,Ole H. Larsen,Uffe B. S. Sørensen,Niels Uldbjerg,Lene N. Nejsum,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14232

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1814-1821

Vaginal colonization with Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococci) is hypothesized to constitute a risk factor for preterm prelabor rupture of membranes. In vitro studies have shown that S. agalactiae strains isolated from infants with neonatal sepsis adhere to chorion cells of the human chorioamniotic membrane. However, it is still unknown whether S. agalactiae strains penetrate the chorioamniotic membranes and whether S. agalactiae colonization affects the biomechanical properties of the membranes and thus contributes to increased risk of preterm prelabor rupture. The aim of this in vitro study was to explore if different strains of S. agalactiae penetrate and affect the biomechanical properties of human chorioamniotic membranes.

The association of endometriosis with work ability and work life participation in late forties and lifelong disability retirement up till age 52: A Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 study

Henna-Riikka Rossi,Outi Uimari,Riikka Arffman,Eeva Vaaramo,Linda Kujanpää,Leena Ala-Mursula,Terhi T. Piltonen,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14210

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1822-1829

Endometriosis may cause a deterioration of daily functioning due to related symptoms such as pain, fatigue and psychological distress. Accordingly, endometriosis may jeopardize work ability, as suggested in mainly survey-based case–control studies, including clinically established cases at fertile age. This is the first general population-level study to evaluate how endometriosis is associated with (1) self-rated work ability and sick leave dates at age 46 years, (2) registered disability and unemployment days between age 46 and 48 and (3) lifelong emergence of registered disability retirement up to age 52.

Uterine artery closure at the origin vs at the uterus level in total laparoscopic hysterectomy: A randomized controlled trial

Stefano Uccella,Simone Garzon,Gabriele Lanzo,Davide Gallina,Mariachiara Bosco,Irene Porcari,Salvatore Gueli-Alletti,Stefano Cianci,Massimo Franchi,Pier Carlo Zorzato,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14238

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1840-1848

The transfusion rate in hysterectomies for benign pathology is almost 3%. However, despite the strong interest in reducing intraoperative bleeding, limited evidence is available regarding the technical aspects concerning uterine vessel management during a total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). Uterine artery (UA) closure in TLH can be performed at the origin from the internal iliac artery or at the uterus level (UL). However, low-quality evidence is available regarding the superiority of one method over the other.

Paternal age over 50 years decreases assisted reproductive technology (ART) success: A single UK center retrospective analysis

Guy Morris,Dimitrios Mavrelos,Rabi Odia,Xavier Viñals Gonzalez,Suzanne Cawood,Ephia Yasmin,Wael Saab,Paul Serhal,Srividya Seshadri,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14221

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1858-1867

To study whether paternal age exerts an effect, independent of maternal age, on the outcomes of fresh in vitro fertilization/ intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles. Semen quality deteriorates with increasing paternal age; however, there is conflicting evidence for any impact paternal age may have on the outcome of IVF/ICSI. Several retrospective and prospective cohort studies have shown that paternal age increases the miscarriage rate and reduces the live birth rate. Some studies have shown no effect of paternal age on live birth rate or miscarriage rate. Studies involving donor oocytes have tended to show no independent effect of paternal age on assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. The age at which paternal age may exert a significant deleterious effect on outcome is not known and there is no limit to paternal age in IVF/ICSI treatment.

Soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt-1): A novel biochemical marker for acute fatty liver of pregnancy

Fabienne Trottmann,Luigi Raio,Sofia Amylidi-Mohr,Beatrice Mosimann,Araceli Jarquin Campos,Franz H. Messerli,Lorenz Risch,Marc U. Baumann,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14218

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1876-1884

Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) substantially contributes to maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Other liver-associated pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia-associated HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzyme, low platelet) syndrome may be difficult to differentiate from AFLP as these diseases overlap with regard to multiple clinical and laboratory features. The aim of this study was to investigate angiogenic profiles by measuring soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) and placental growth factor (PlGF) in pregnancies compromised by AFLP and to compare them with those complicated by HELLP syndrome.

Antepartum evaluation of the obstetric conjugate at transabdominal 2D ultrasound: A feasibility study

Elvira Di Pasquo,Nicola Volpe,Corinne Labadini,Giovanni Morganelli,Andrea Di Tonto,Giovanni B. L. Schera,Giuseppe Rizzo,Tiziana Frusca,Tullio Ghi,

doi : 10.1111/aogs.14226

Volume 100, Issue 10 p. 1917-1923

The obstetric conjugate represents the shortest anteroposterior diameter of the birth canal and it reflects the capacity of the pelvic inlet to allow the passage and the engagement of the fetal head. The antepartum evaluation of this parameter may be attempted at digital examination to predict the risk of cephalopelvic disproportion, but the accuracy of clinical pelvimetry is notoriously poor. The aim of our study was to describe the sonographic measurement of the obstetric conjugate at transabdominal 2D-ultrasound and to assess its reproducibility.
