Primary Cervical Angiosarcoma Presenting With Transfusion‐Dependent Bleeding in Early Pregnancy: Diagnostic and Management Challenges

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Persistent vaginal bleeding during pregnancy should not be attributed solely to obstetric causes. Rare cervical malignancies, including angiosarcoma, may present with life‐threatening anemia, and MRI with early biopsy is essential to avoid diagnostic delay.

Human prolyl hydroxylase expression in uterine leiomyoma during the menstrual cycle

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2012
Background To investigate the role of prolyl hydroxylase (PH), a key enzyme of collagen synthesis, in human uterine leiomyoma, PH expression was determined in the normal uterine myometrium and the leiomyoma tissues during the menstrual cycle. Methods The

Optimization of Newly Diagnosed Hypertension and Type II Diabetes Mellitus Before Myomectomy for Symptomatic Uterine Leiomyoma

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe but newly diagnosed cardiometabolic derangements do not preclude safe myomectomy. Structured, time‐limited optimization with multidisciplinary input allows surgery to proceed once cardiovascular risk is controlled, even if glycemic targets remain imperfectly met.

Robotic‐Assisted Epiphrenic and Mid‐Oesophageal Diverticulectomy: A Tertiary Centre Experience

The International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 22, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Surgical management of oesophageal pulsion diverticula is advised when symptoms significantly impair quality of life. Robotics can aid in transhiatal dissection in diverticulectomy, but available evidence is limited. Methods A retrospective chart review of all consecutive robotic‐assisted oesophageal diverticulectomies with Heller ...

Variants associating with uterine leiomyoma highlight genetic background shared by various cancers and hormone-related traits

Nature Communications, 2018
Uterine leiomyomas are common benign tumors. Here, a meta-analysis of two European leiomyoma GWAS uncovers 21 leiomyoma risk variants at 16 loci, providing evidence of genetic overlap between leiomyoma and various benign and malignant tumors and ...
