Diagnosis and clinical presentation of endometriosis.

Abstract:

:Despite advances in diagnostic techniques, endometriosis remains an enigmatic condition. Clinical symptoms and signs often do not correlate with the anatomic stage of the disease, and morphologic characteristics very widely. A definitive diagnosis can be established only by direct visualization, usually by laparoscopy. In some cases biopsy may be necessary to confirm the presence of disease.

  • Active management of labor: does it make a difference?

    abstract:OBJECTIVE:Our goal was to evaluate whether active management of labor lowers cesarean section rates, shortens the length of labor, and overcomes any negative effects of epidural analgesia on nulliparous labor. STUDY DESIGN:We randomly assigned 405 low-risk term nulliparous patients to either an active management of la...
