Excluding 8 cases (8.42 %) which cervical cerclage were applied, 87 patients were administered vaginal progesterone and in 9 cases (10.34 %) cervical shortening were continued despite progesterone treatment. Four out of these nine cases (44.44 %) had cervical cerclage and their deliveries were delayed after 34 th gestational week. Vaginal progesterone treatment prevented cervical shortening in 89.66 % of patients who had cervical length between 20-30 mm and out of these patients.
 
  Cervical cerclage application algorithm in continued cervical shortening cases despite vaginal progesterone is beneficial to delay the delivery after 34 th gestational week and related to low complication rate.

  To determine the incidence of occult uterine sarcomas and other unexpected pathologies in patients undergoing hysterectomies or myomectomies with a pre-operative diagnosis of uterine leiomyomas.
 
  Retrospective study.
 
  Tertiary hospital in Santiago, Chile.
 
  921 women who underwent surgery for presumed myomas. Database analysis of surgical and pathological notes, from January 2007 to December 2017 with a preoperative diagnosis of uterine leiomyoma.
 
  number of patients with uterine sarcoma confirmed on histology.
 
  During this period, a total of 921 gynecological surgeries were performed for benign uterine fibroids of which 787 were hysterectomies and 134 were myomectomies. We found four cases of malignant neoplasms (0,43 %). Two were uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS), one mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumor, and one case of incidental cervical cancer.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Chlorogenic-acid.html  This gives an LMS incidence of 1 in 460 and 1 in 921 of mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumor. There were seven cases of unexpected benign pathology. This included six atypical myomas and one leiomyoblastoma epithelioid myoma. If we combine the malignant and benign cases, we would have an incidence of 1.2 % of unexpected pathology.
 
  In our series of patients undergoing myomectomies or hysterectomies for presumed myomas the incidence of LMS was 1 in 460. The incidence of any unexpected pathology including benign ones in presumed myomas was 1 in 83 (six atypical myomas, one leiomyoblastoma epithelioid myoma, two LMS, one mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumor, one incidental cervical cancer).

  Induction of labour in women with an unfavourable cervix is associated with a risk of caesarean delivery. When a diagnosis of fetal growth restriction (FGR) is also involved, the risk of intrapartum fetal acidosis increases. The main objective was to identify prognostic factors for the risk of caesarean delivery after induction for suspected FGR after 36 weeks of gestation with an unripe cervix.
 
  This was a retrospective, single-centre (Port Royal, Paris, France) study of women with a singleton fetus in cephalic presentation, with labour induced at or after 36 weeks for suspected FGR diagnosed during second or third trimester of pregnancy with an unripe cervix (Bishop score under 6) who gave birth between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2019. A multivariable analysis was performed to identify the factors related to an increased risk of caesarean section.
 
  Of the 146 women included, 56 (38.4 %) had caesarean deliveries. After adjustment, the factors significantly associated with the risk of caesarean were maternal age greater than 39 years (ORa = 4.33 [1.22-17.2], reference 25-39 years), nulliparity (ORa = 3.49 [1.25-11.2]), and an abnormal fetal umbilical artery Doppler velocimetry (ORa = 3.50 [1.47-8.70]). The risk of poor neonatal condition did not differ significantly between women with vaginal and caesarean deliveries (2.3 % vs 7.3 %, P = 0.21).
 
  When FGR is suspected at 36 weeks of gestation and later, induction of labour is a reasonable option, even if the cervix is unripe, as the risk of caesarean delivery appears acceptable and neonatal status is good and similar with both modes of delivery.

  To evaluate a thrombin gel matrix (TGM), Floseal, for the prevention of lymphocele in patients with endometrial cancer who underwent pelvic lymphadenectomy.
 
  A total of 79 consecutive patients with endometrial cancer were randomly allocated to one of two groups the TGM group and control group. After completion of the lymphadenectomy, 5 mL of Floseal was applied to the bilateral pelvic sidewalls, especially the femoral canal, obturator, and common iliac vessels areas. Computed tomography scans were obtained for lymphocele evaluation 2 months after the surgery.
 
  Three patients from the TGM group, and four patients from the control group were lost during follow-up, and data from 36 participants from each group were analyzed. As the primary outcome, lymphocele developed in 12 patients in both groups (33 %). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of lymphocele and symptomatic lymphocele development. Lymphocele localization was also not different between the two groups, but the diameter of the lymphoceles detected in the TGM group was significantly greater (p = 0.021). The mean drainage days was significantly shorter in the TGM group (p = 0.015). The amount of drainage was also less in the TGM group, but the difference was not statistically significant.
 
  Thrombin gel matrix applied to the pelvic sidewalls does not reduce the incidence of symptomatic or asymptomatic lymphoceles after pelvic lymphadenectomy in endometrial cancer. However, it can reduce the amount of drainage and the number of drainage days so it can help to shorten hospitalization.
