2. 1. Cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer in pregnancy: diagnosis and outcome

   Author : Cecilia Kärrberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cervical dysplasia; cervical cancer; pregnancy; colposcopic scoring system; regression; persistence; progression; HPV DNA test; HPV mRNA E6 E7 test; p16INK4a;

   Abstract : ABSTRACT:Cervical cancer is one of the most common types of cancer that is diagnosed during pregnancy. The primary aim in investigation of atypical cervical cytology during pregnancy is to exclude cancer so that further treatment of the lesion can be postponed until after delivery. READ MORE

4. 2. Minimal conization with carbon dioxide laser for treatment of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia

   Author : Zoltan Bekassy; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gynaecology; Obstetrics; preterm birth; pregnancy; laser; follow-up; conization; Cervical carcinoma; cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; andrology; reproduction; sexuality; Obstetrik; gynekologi; andrologi; reproduktion; sexualitet;

   Abstract : 3,100 non-pregnant women and 85 pregnants were miniconized during the 15-year period ending 1994 . The outpatient procedure of minimal conization using a freehand-guided, high power 60W carbon dioxide laser focused to 0.1 mm in spot-size, giving high power density 165,000 W/cm2, produces single-piece tissue specimens for histological examination.

5. 3. Management of late term pregnancy

   Author : Mårten Alkmark; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Obstetrics; Induction of labor; Postterm pregnancy; Late-term pregnancy; Perinatal morbidity; Perinatal mortality; Cost-effectiveness;

   Abstract : Background: The optimal time point to intervene and induce labour in women with a low-risk pregnancy, in order to decrease perinatal adverse outcome, is up for debate. Some advocate for induction of labour (IOL) at 41 gestational weeks (GW) and others for expectant management (EM) until 42 GW. READ MORE

6. 4. Three - dimensional ultrasound studies of the cervix in pregnancy

   Author : Linas Rovas; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; andrology; gynaecology; Obstetrics; Prostaglandin .; Labor induction .; Spontaneous delivery .; Pregnancy .; Cervix uteri .; Blood flow indices .; Doppler ultrasound .; Three-dimensional imaging .; sexuality; reproduction; Obstetrik; sexualitet; reproduktion; gynekologi; andrologi;

   Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate cervical physiological changes by three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound during pregnancy and to investigate the ability of 3D power Doppler to predict time to spontaneous and induced delivery in prolonged pregnancy. The thesis is based on five studies: reproducibility of cervical measurements by 3D power Doppler ultrasound (study I), reference data representative normal findings of the cervix assessed by 3D ultrasound during pregnancy (studies II, III) and the ability of 3D power Doppler to predict time to spontaneous and induced delivery in prolonged pregnancy.

7. 5. Pathophysiology in postterm pregnancy : epidemiology, risk factors and cervical ripening

   Author : Nathalie Roos; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : postterm pregnancy;

   Abstract : Background: Postterm pregnancy, defined as a pregnancy of 42 or more completed weeks of gestation, occurs in approximately 5-10 % of all pregnancies. The condition is associated with increased maternal and fetal morbidity as well as an increased risk of perinatal mortality. READ MORE
