Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome without salpingitis: Should contrast-enhanced computed tomography be a routine diagnostic procedure? [PDF]
Fitz‐Hugh‐Curtis syndrome should be suspected in sexually active young women who present with acute right upper quadrant pain without lower abdominal pain, and the risk of radiation exposure should be considered when performing computed tomography. Abstract Fitz‐Hugh‐Curtis syndrome should be suspected in sexually active young women presenting with ...

Transvaginal Sonographic Assessment Following Cervical Pessary Placement for Preterm Birth Prevention [PDF]
Background Transvaginal sonographic cervical length assessment identifies pregnant women at risk for preterm birth, and the subsequent placement of a cervical pessary may reduce this risk.

Comparison of Transvaginal and Transperineal Ultrasonographic Uterocervical Angle Measurements in Low-Risk Pregnancies at 24–34 Weeks’ Gestation [PDF]
Background: The uterocervical angle (UCA) is a promising ultrasound parameter for predicting preterm birth. Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) is the gold standard for cervical assessment; however, some patients may decline the procedure due to discomfort or

Comparative Assessment of Uterocervical Angle Using Transvaginal, Transabdominal, and Transperineal Ultrasonography Between 16 and 24 Weeks of Gestation [PDF]
Objectives: To assess the correlation and agreement of uterocervical angle (UCA) measurements obtained via transabdominal (TAUS), transperineal (TPUS), and transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) between 16 and 24 weeks of gestation.

Endometrial assessment in abnormal uterine bleeding: transvaginal ultrasound alone may not be good enough. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the proportion of optimal assessments of endometrial thickness (ET) achieved by transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) compared with a multimodal (MM) sonographic approach in women with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Methods This prospective observational study was a subset of the EPI‐SURE study conducted between June and ...

Background: Cervical length measurement is still the most widely used method to predict preterm labor. Recent studies have reported that in addition to cervical length, uterocervical angle (UCA) may also be useful in predicting preterm labor.

Uterine angle changes during the in vitro fertilization treatment cycle [PDF]
Studies have focused on uterine peristalsis and endometrial development, whereas knowledge is limited on cyclical changes in the uterocervical angle (the angle formed between the uterine corpus and cervix) during the menstrual cycle.
