Introduction Hip fractures are common injuries with high morbidity and mortality rates. These patients often become anemic and require allogenic blood transfusion. Transfusions are costly with potential complications. This study examines the effect of intravenous (IV) iron on patients with hip fractures, undergoing surgery within 48 hours, and being treated with a highly restrictive transfusion protocol. Materials and Methods A retrospective chart review performed on patients admitted to a level 1 tertiary care center with fractures of the proximal femur from December 2015 to December 2017 included 239 patients. Patients who received 300 mg of IV iron when their hemoglobin fell below 11 g/dL were compared to a control group of patients who never received IV iron with respect to transfusion rate, 30-day readmission rate, nosocomial infections, length of stay, and hospital costs. Results There were no significant differences in transfusion rates (P = .118). There was a trend toward decreased length of stay (P = .063) and 30-day readmission rates (P = .051) with a 59% reduction in the odds of 30-day readmission when a patient received IV iron. There were no differences in nosocomial infection rates or cost of hospitalization. Discussion This study presents a compelling argument for further research regarding the use of IV iron in elderly patients undergoing surgery for a hip fracture. Length of stay and transfusion rates are increased in patients with intertrochanteric fractures and undergoing intramedullary nailing. A higher number of these patients in the IV iron group may have falsely increased these rates. A prospective, randomized, controlled trial is needed to assess the true effects of perioperative IV iron. Conclusions This study showed no significant benefit to IV iron use in elderly patients undergoing surgical treatment of hip fracture. The decrease in 30-day readmission rate should be further examined with a prospective randomized controlled trial. © The Author(s) 2020.Recurrent miscarriage is one of the complications of pregnancy in which the potential role of immunologic factors has already been mentioned. Here, two young women with recurrent miscarriage were consulted in the infertility center. The diagnosis of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) deficiency was made through the reduction of IgG4 Ig levels and normal total IgG titer. Considering this abnormality, intravenous Ig 200 mg/kg was started monthly, and they both had successful pregnancies. Little is known about IgG4 deficiency in women with recurrent miscarriage. IgG4 deficiency should be taken into account in these patients. It is expected that these results will shed further light on the feasibility of intravenous Ig for women with recurrent miscarriage. https://www.selleckchem.com/pharmacological_epigenetics.html ©Copyright 2019 by Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology | Turkish Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology published by Galenos Publishing House.Heterotopic pregnancy occurs 1 in 30000 pregnancies. We present case of an acute abdomen caused by a ruptured ectopic component. Our patient had no known risk factors, which made the diagnosis even more challenging. Intrauterine pregnancy was desired by patient and her husband. A natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) procedure was performed, which is a next-generation minimally invasive procedure in this area. After the procedure, our patient was discharged one day after surgery with a viable intrauterine pregnancy. ©Copyright 2019 by Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology | Turkish Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology published by Galenos Publishing House.Objective To present the clinical, surgical, and pathologic features of bone recurrence in patients who underwent radical hysterectomy for early-stage uterine cervical cancer. Materials and Methods Data of 412 patients who underwent type III radical hysterectomy and pelvic ± paraaortic lymphadenectomy for stage 1B-2A epithelial cervical cancer were reviewed. Seven (1.7%) patients with bone recurrence in the first recurrence were included in the study. Results The median follow-up of the main cohort (n=412) was 46 (range=1-300) months. In this period, recurrence developed in 53 (12.9%) patients and recurrence was observed in bone in 13.2% (7 of 53) of these recurrences. Time to recurrence ranged from 9 to 45 months. Of the recurrences, five were in the axial skeleton and two were in the appendicular skeleton. Recurrence was observed in lumbar vertebrae in three patients, thoracic vertebrae in one patient, sacral vertebrae in one patient, lumbosacral vertebrae in one patient, and the left femur in two patients. Four patients had multiple recurrence in 3 patients despite isolated bone recurrence. Patients with multiple recurrences died within 6-25 months. All isolated bone recurrences were in the axial skeleton. Complete clinical response with salvage therapy was achieved in two patients with isolated bone recurrence. Conclusion Complete clinical response and long postoperative survival can be achieved with salvage treatment when bone recurrence is solitary in cervical cancers. ©Copyright 2019 by Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology | Turkish Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology published by Galenos Publishing House.Objective Although diabetes is a common co-morbidity in patients with gynecologic cancer, information about its impact on radiation toxicity in patients with gynecologic cancer treated with external pelvic irradiation is scarce. We aimed to investigate the relation of diabetes with acute toxicity in patients with gynecologic tumors who underwent pelvic +/- paraaortic radiotherapy. Materials and Methods One hundred twenty-nine patients with endometrium or cervix carcinoma were enrolled in the study. Demographic features, presence of diabetes, incidence and severity of upper gastrointestinal (UGIS), lower gastrointestinal (LGIS), and urinary symptoms were recorded from files. Correlation and logistic regression analysis was used to determine the impact of diabetes, age, chemotherapy, paraaortic irradiation on toxicities, and a prediction model was developed. Results The median age of 77 patients with endometrium cancer and 52 cervix cancer was 61 (range, 25-92) years, and 28 (21.7%) of them had diabetes. The median pelvic and tumor/tumor bed dose was 5040+247.
