Myoma Uteri

Objectives: To determine the most common age and parity for the development of myoma uteri. To find out any relation between age of the last child and the development of myoma uteri. To determine the treatment protocal and outcome of treatment. Materials/methods: This study was carried out at Nepal Medical College Teaching Hospital from Jan 2001 to 31st June 2006. All cases of myoma uteri admitted in Gynaecological ward was included.. Histological evidence of myoma confirmed the diagnosis. Age, parity and age of the last child, clinical features, surgical procedures and outcome of surgery were considered. Results: A total of 137 cases of myoma uteri was operated during five and half years period. This represented 38.5 %of all abdominal hysterectomy performed during the same period. The mean age was 43.3 years with median parity at 1-3 and the mean age of last child at 12years. Excessive menstrual bleeding 73.0%, abdominal mass and pain 58.4%, dysmenorrhea 18.2% and infertility 7.3% were the common symptoms. Total abdominal hysterectomy was the mainstay of treatment. Patients were happy with the treatment specially those with severe and multiple symptoms Postoperative complications were not significant. There was one death due to pulmonary embolism who had mesothelioma of pleura diagnosed by pleural biopsy before operation. Conclusion: Early marriage and early completion of the family is the social trend in Nepalese society. Myoma is common in 4th-5th decade of life in multi parity with the age of last child around 12years. This long standing secondary infertility may be an underlying risk factor in the development of myoma uteri.   doi:10.3126/njog.v1i2.2397 N. J. Obstet.

Preoperative Localisation

Many patients with massive lower gastrointestinal (GI) haemorrhage from diverticulosis are subjected to total colectomy when preoperative localisation is unavailable. We dissected colectomy specimens and noted that there was limited retrograde reflux in most of these cases. Therefore, we sought to assess the value of a positive endoluminal erythrocyte presence (PEEP) test (presence of fresh blood in the caecum) to direct segmental colectomies in 14 patients who required emergency operations for massive lower GI haemorrhage. Overall, 13 (93%) patients who had segmental colectomy guided by the PEEP test had successful control of bleeding. There was no mortality and a 14% postoperative morbidity after segmental resections guided by the PEEP test. One patient had persistent bleeding and required a completion colectomy on the third postoperative day. We propose that the PEEP test be added to the surgical armamentarium to guide segmental resection in the absence of localisation by conventional means. However, we advocate blind total colectomy if the PEEP test is equivocal and early completion colectomy if there is significant re-bleeding.
