Malignant risk of pelvic mass after hysterectomy for adenomyosis or endometriosis.

ABSTRACT: Pelvic mass onset following a hysterectomy due to benign disease is not rarely seen. Appropriate diagnosis and treatment are of great importance.This study aims to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients who have received surgery for pelvic mass following hysterectomy due to gynecological benign disease, especially endometriosis or adenomyosis.This study retrospectively analyzed the patients undergone reoperation for pelvic mass subsequently to hysterectomy from January 2012 to December 2016 in a tertiary teaching hospital.A total of 247 patients were enrolled in this study. There is a significant difference between the patients with or without a history of endometriosis/adenomyosis. Multivariate analysis showed that the pelvic mass had a higher risk of being ovarian endometrioid carcinoma, ovarian clear cell carcinoma, ovarian endometriosis, and ovarian physiological cysts in patients with a history of adenomyosis/endometriosis.The pathology of the subsequent pelvic mass inclines to be benign, includes ovarian endometriosis, ovarian physiological cysts, and pelvic encapsulated effusion. Postoperative adjuvant therapy for those received hysterectomy due to endometriosis/adenomyosis, like gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa), may contribute to the prevention of benign pelvic mass. Patients with a history of hysterectomy due to endometrisos/adenomyosis tend to have a shorter time interval between hysterectomy and pelvic malignant tumors onset.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the specific vaginal microbiome in the differential diagnosis of endometriosis/adenomyosis (EM/AM)-associated chronic pelvic pain (CPP) from other types of CPP, and to explore the role of the vaginal microbiome in the mechanism of EM/AM-associated CPP.MethodsWe recruited 37 women with EM/AM-associated CPP, 25 women with chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) without EM/AM, and 66 women without CPPS into our study. All of the participants were free from human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Sequencing of barcoded 16S rRNA gene fragments (V4) was used to determine the vaginal microbiome composition on the Illumina HiSeq2500 System. Taxonomic and functional bioinformatics analyses were performed using t-test, linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe), MetaStat, and PICRUSt algorithms.ResultsAt the species level, EM/AM-associated CPP was found to be associated with a predominance of Clostridium butyricum, Clostridium disporicum, Alloscardovia omnicolens, and Veillonella montpellierensis, and a concomitant paucity of Lactobacillus jensenii, Lactobacillus reuteri, and Lactobacillus iners. When the relative abundance of Clostridium disporicum was over 0.001105% and that of Lactobacillus reuteri was under 0.1911349%, the differential diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 81.08% and 52.0%, respectively. When serum CA125 was combined, the sensitivity increased to 89.19%, but the specificity remained at 52.0%. The PICRUSt results identified 7 differentially regulated pathways within the 3 groups that may be of relevance.ConclusionsCompared to that of CPPS patients without EM/AM and women without CPPS, the vaginal microbiome of patients with EM/AM-associated CPP shows significantly higher alpha (phylogenetic) diversity, as well as higher counts of Clostridium butyricum, Clostridium disporicum, Alloscardovia omnicolens, and Veillonella montpellierensis. These differences in the vaginal microbiome may interfere with local functional pathways, which could provide a direction for innovative metabolite-specific targeted treatment. The combination of vaginal biomarkers and serum CA125 may provide an original method to differentiate EM/AM-associated CPP.

Project description:Background Adenomyosis can cause symptoms like dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, pelvic pain and bleeding disorders and is related to subfertility and obstetrical complications. The disease is probably underestimated and underdiagnosed because of difficulties in reliable clinical examination and imaging results. The age-related prevalence of adenomyosis still remains unclear. In this retrospective analysis we describe the rate of adenomyosis in two independent cohorts of patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign diseases (2011–2013 and 2015–2018) and its correlation to presurgical symptoms respectively indications for hysterectomy. Materials and methods All surgeries have been performed in the same department of minimally invasive gynecological surgery by a total of two experienced surgeons following a surgical internal standard for the indication bleeding disorder, dysmenorrhea. We analyzed the overall rate of patients with adenomyosis in both cohorts and related the histological presence of adenomyosis to presurgical symptoms. We also analyzed a subgroup of postmenopausal patients with uterine prolapse. Results In 307 patients we detected 42.0% of cases with histologically proven adenomyosis. In the group of patients with bleeding disorders and dysmenorrhea as indication for surgery we found the highest rate of adenomyosis (59.3%, cohort 1). 81,1% patients with adenomyosis (cohort 1) reported symptoms. In the subgroup of 42 postmenopausal patients, we found 23.8% of cases with adenomyosis. Conclusion Our data shows that a positive anamnesis regarding the symptoms bleeding disorders and dysmenorrhea is suspicious for adenomyosis. In hysterectomy specimen adenomyosis can be found in more than 40%. The role of adenomyosis-related symptoms requires further investigation, especially in adolescent and postmenopausal patients. Highlights • In 307 patients undergoing hysterectomy we detected 42.0% of cases with adenomyosis.• In patients with bleeding disorders and dysmenorrhea we found the highest rate of adenomyosis (59.3%).• 81,1% of patients with adenomyosis reported symptoms.• In 58.9% of patients with adenomyosis we found additional fibroids.• In 42 postmenopausal patients we found adenomyosis in 23.8% of cases.

Project description:BackgroundUterine leiomyomas and adenomyosis are both common and often associated with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB), including the symptom of heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB). Understanding the prevalence of adenomyosis in women with uterine leiomyomas could inform clinicians and patients in a way that may improve therapeutic approaches.ObjectiveTo explore the prevalence of adenomyosis in a group of women who underwent hysterectomy for AUB-L, to determine the prevalence of submucous leiomyomas, and to examine the utility of preoperative ultrasound to detect the presence of adenomyosis.MethodsThe Kaiser Permanente Hysterectomy Database (KPHD) was searched for women aged 18-52 undergoing hysterectomy for leiomyoma-associated chronic AUB (AUB-L) in 2018 and 2019. A target sample of 400 comprised those with at least 3 years in the Health System. Radiologists evaluated preoperative pelvic ultrasound images to determine leiomyoma size and level 2 FIGO type (submucous or other), and the linked electronic medical record abstracted for clinical features, including histopathological evidence of adenomyosis.ResultsOf the 370 subjects that met the study criteria, adenomyosis was identified via histopathology in 170 (45.9%). There was no difference in the adenomyosis prevalence with (47.1%) and without (43.0%) at least one submucous leiomyoma. Subgroup analysis of ultrasound images by an expert radiologist for the presence of adenomyosis demonstrated a positive predictive value of 54.0% and a negative predictive value of 43.4%.ConclusionsAdenomyosis was present in almost half of this AUB-L cohort undergoing hysterectomy and was equally prevalent in those with and without submucous leiomyomas as determined by sonographic evaluation. The imaging findings are in accord with prior investigators and demonstrate that 2-D ultrasound is insensitive to the presence of adenomyosis when the uterus is affected by leiomyomas. Further research is necessary to determine the impact of various adenomyosis phenotypes on the presence and severity of the symptom of HMB.
