Objectives To analyze the accuracy of a non-contrast MR vessel wall imaging technique, three-dimensional motion-sensitized driven equilibrium prepared rapid gradient echo (3D-MERGE) for diagnosing chronic carotid artery occlusion (CCAO) characteristics compared with 3D time-of-flight (TOF) MRA, and contrast-enhanced MRA (CE-MRA), using digital subtraction angiography (DSA) as a reference standard. Methods Subjects diagnosed with possible CCAO by ultrasound were retrospectively analyzed. Patients underwent 3.0-T MR imaging with 3D-MERGE, 3D-TOF-MRA, and CE-MRA followed by DSA within 1 week. Diagnostic accuracy of occlusion, occlusion site, and proximal stump condition were assessed independently on 3 MRI sequences and DSA. Agreement of the above indicators was evaluated in reference to DSA. Results One hundred twenty-four patients with 129 suspected CCAO (5 with bilateral occlusions) met the inclusion criteria for our study. 3D-MERGE demonstrated a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 97.0%, 86.7%, and 94tump condition. • 3D-MERGE was shown to be a more accurate and efficient tool than 3D-TOF-MRA to detect the characteristics of the occluded segment. • 3D-MERGE provides not only luminal images for characterizing the proximal characteristics of occlusion but also vessel wall images for assessing the distal lumen and morphology of occlusion segment, which might help clinicians to optimize the treatment strategy for patients with chronic carotid artery occlusion.Objectives To evaluate the recall rates of digital mammography (DM) and synthetic images after adding digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in patients with breast-conserving surgery. Methods From November 2015 to April 2017, 229 women with breast-conserving surgery due to breast cancer who underwent DBT after surgery were included (mean interval, 12.9 ± 1.4 months). All women underwent combo-mode DBT examinations including full-field DM, tomosynthesis, and reconstructed synthetic 2D images. Three board-certified breast radiologists reviewed the images sequentially synthetic 2D+DBT and, 1 month later, DM and then DM+DBT. Recall rates and the abnormality type causing the recall were calculated and compared for each mammographic modality and breast density. Results Of the 229 patients included, 230 mammography images were reviewed. One patient (0.4%) developed locoregional recurrences during follow-up (mean duration, 25.8 ± 4.5 months). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/elsubrutinib.html Recall rates for synthetic 2D+DBT were significantly lower than for DM alone (DM alone, regardless of mammographic breast density (all p less then 0.05, respectively).Introduction and hypothesis Excision of a circumferential diverticulum may be challenging as its extension into the dorsal aspect of the urethra makes access complicated. Methods A 69-year-old woman with a history of Stage 3C ovarian cancer on chemotherapy presented with a 3-week history of severe dysuria and suprapubic pain. T2-weighted pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a circumferential diverticulum extending over the dorsal midurethra without evidence of urethral communication. As conservative measures including bladder instillations failed, she underwent surgical excision of this multilocular circumferential diverticulum. The diverticulum was identified and excised in segments. To achieve optimal excision, we incised around and dorsal to the urethral meatus into the retropubic area. Finally, a communicating tract from the ventral loculation of the diverticulum to the urethra was identified. The communication was obliterated, and the urethra was repaired in two layers and reinforced with a fibromuscular flap. The fluid tight seal was confirmed by retrograde filling of the bladder and cystourethroscopy. Results The patient was symptom free at 6-week and 6-month visits. Conclusion This video highlights the steps required to successfully excise a complex circumferential diverticulum that extends over the dorsal midurethra and has a communication with the urethral lumen.Introduction and hypothesis Sexual dysfunction is a common problem in the general population. We compared the effects of biofeedback and electrical stimulation on the symptoms of sexual pain dysfunction in women with urinary stress incontinence. Methods We carried out a parallel randomized clinical trial in an outpatient department for physical medicine and rehabilitation at a university hospital. Based on DSM-5 criteria for sexual dysfunction, 22 patients with sexual dysfunction and stress incontinence were included and randomly allocated to each study arm. The primary outcome measure was the total score on the Female Sexual Function Index. Each group underwent pertinent treatment for 100 min, two times a week for 6 weeks. Results Both groups showed favorable outcomes in increasing Female Sexual Function Index mean scores and their domains. However, for improving sexual function, women in the biofeedback group benefited more than those receiving electrical stimulation. Biofeedback raised desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, and satisfaction scores more than electrical stimulation (all p ≤ 0.025). Both interventions decreased pain during or following vaginal penetration similarly (p = 0.985). Conclusions Both biofeedback and electrical stimulation increased the Female Sexual Function Index score. However, to improve sexual function, women undergoing biofeedback seem to benefit more than those receiving electrical stimulation. We recommend considering the prescription of biofeedback for the treatment of sexual dysfunction because of its efficacy, lack of adverse effects, and easy application.Introduction and hypothesis Vaginal flatus is an embarrassing condition that can impair women's quality of life. The underlying pathophysiology is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the association between vaginal flatus and pelvic floor anatomy. Methods Retrospective observational study on women seen in a tertiary urogynaecological service. All had undergone a standardised interview, clinical examination and four-dimensional transperineal ultrasound. Offline analysis of volume data was performed blinded against clinical data. Results Datasets of 570 women were analysed. Five hundred twelve (90%) were vaginally parous. Vaginal flatus was reported by 190 (33%). Mean bother score was 4.2 (SD 3.4, range 0-10). One hundred eighty-five reported frequency of vaginal flatus it occurred once daily in 15 (8%). One hundred two women identified the following precipitating factors intercourse in 72 (71%), postural change in 22 (22%) and physical activities in 9 (9%). Vaginal birth, central and posterior compartment prolapse, anal incontinence, higher levator resting tone and younger age were associated with vaginal flatus.
