Abstract

Introduction : Ovarian cancer is the 8th most common cancer in women. High grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is a subtype of ovarian cancer with the highest case and death rate compared to other types. Therefore, a preventive approach is needed by reviewing the underlying risk factors of this cancer. Body mass index (BMI) and parity are modifiable risk factors for ovarian cancer. This study aims to determine the relationship BMI and parity on high grade serous subtype ovarian cancer at RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang. Method: observational analytic study with a cross sectional approach. This research was conducted at RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang using medical record data of epithelial ovarian cancer patients at RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang from 2021 to 2022 with a sample of 129 patients. The data analysis method used in this research is the Chi-square test. Result : Epithelial ovarian cancer patients are most found at >50 years old (55%), menopausal woman (65.9%), non obese (77.5%) and  parous women (76%). Conclusion : There was no relationship between body mass index and parity with the incidence of ovarian cancer, subtype high grade serous, at RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang.

Abstract

Background: DU is a varied and challenging case of pelvic surgery because the diagnosis is difficult to make. Symptoms that appear in women vary, ranging from incidental findings, lumps or swelling, and pain in the vagina, as well as discharge from the urethra with a periurethral mass. Objective: In this report, we report a case of DU in a 32-year-old woman who complained of a painful lump in her genitals. This patient underwent transvaginal urethral diverticulectomy and successfully resolved the symptoms of urethral diverticulum he experienced. Methods: Management of urethral diverticulum in this report, namely by history taking, physical examination, supporting examination consisting of transvaginal and transperineal ultrasound, as well as cystourethroscopy before excision and reconstruction of the urethral diverticulectomy is carried out on this patient. Results: This patient had a successful transvaginal urethral diverticulectomy, with no early post-surgical complications found. Conclusion: Reducing the rate of problems following surgery is possible by adhering to the excision and reconstruction principles of urethral diverticulectomy.

Abstract

Introduction: Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury (TRALI) is a severe, often fatal, complication of blood transfusion. Obstetric patients with severe pre-eclampsia are uniquely susceptible due to a "two-hit" mechanism, where the underlying inflammatory condition primes the lungs for injury from a subsequent blood transfusion. This report presents a case of post-transfusion respiratory distress in such a high-risk patient, highlighting the diagnostic challenges. Case Report: A mother with severe pre-eclampsia underwent a caesarean section for a macrosomic fetus, complicated by postpartum hemorrhage. She was transfused with two units of Packed Red Cells (PRC). Approximately 12 hours after the transfusion was completed, she developed acute-onset, progressive shortness of breath, requiring management in the High Care Unit. Discussion: In this complex postpartum case, the central challenge is diagnosing acute respiratory distress following Caesarean delivery, severe pre-eclampsia, and a blood transfusion. Given the patient’s heightened vulnerability due to pre-eclampsia and surgery, the transfusion may have triggered acute lung injury via the "two-hit" model. TRALI diagnosis relies on clinical suspicion and requires immediate cessation of transfusion, respiratory support, and careful hemodynamic management. Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of recognizing TRALI as a potential cause of respiratory distress in obstetric patients with pre-eclampsia, emphasizing the need for prompt diagnosis and supportive care.

Abstract

Introduction: Hydatidiform mole is the most common gestational trophoblastic disease in regions such as Asia, Africa, and Latin America, with a lower incidence in European countries. In Indonesia, the incidence ranges from 1 in 100 to 141 pregnancies, particularly affecting women under 20 and over 45 years old, often in those with low socio-economic status and nutritional deficiencies (such as protein, folic acid, and carotene). Case Presentation: A 25-year-old female presented to Malang City General Hospital with complaints of recurring brownish-black foamy vaginal discharge, nausea-vomiting for two months. She had regular menstrual cycles and no contraception use. On examination, the uterine fundal height was one finger above the symphysis pubis with no fetal heart sounds or uterine contractions. Vaginal examination revealed a closed cervix and foamy black blood. Ultrasound showed a retroverted uterus, a 6.4 mm gestational sac without a fetal pole, 37.0×31.6mm residual tissue, a honeycomb pattern, and no myometrial invasion. Blunt curettage removed 30 grams of bubble-like tissue. Histopathology confirmed a complete hydatidiform mole. β-hCG levels and uterine size continued rising post-curettage. Discussion: A significant number of low-risk PGTN patients with a FIGO score of 0-6 show a complete response to first-line methotrexate/folinic acid therapy. However, those with a score of 6 or β-hCG levels >100,000 IU/l have a higher resistance rate. Despite this, the survival rate remains very high. Conclusion: PGTN is a malignant uterine tumor linked to molar pregnancies. Single-agent chemotherapy remains the standard treatment and has a generally favorable prognosis.

Abstract

Introduction: Pelvic organ prolapse is one of women’s health major concern associated with decreased quality of life that may cause a disruption in the bladder, gastrointestinal and sexual dysfunction. Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) stated 41% of women aged 50-79 years pelvic organ prolapse symptoms and surgeries performed rate increased from 1.5 to 4.9 cases per 1,000 women per year. Objective: To determine changes in quality of life based on Indonesian version of Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory – 20 questionnaire in patients with pelvic organ prolapse. Methods: Prospective cohort study carried out in Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung City, Indonesia during the period Januari 2022 – March 2023. The quality of life was followed up three months after hospital discharge. We used the Indonesian version of Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory – 20 (PFDI-20). Results: In this study, 20 subjects were involved. The result showed that significant reduction in the quality of life score in patients after the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse with conservative treatment such as pessary insertion based on scale Indonesia version of PFDI – 20 questionnaire, with the highest a preoperative PFDI-20 score of 275 and after therapy score reduction until 50. Conclusions: There is a reduction in quality of life scores in patients with pelvic organ prolapse underwent surgery. Further research should be conducted in large number to assess the quality of life of patients with pelvic floor dysfunction in Indonesia using these questionnaire.

Abstract

Introduction: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the abnormal descent of pelvic organs that can cause various symptoms, including sexual dysfunction, especially in menopausal women. With increasing life expectancy, the prevalence of POP-related female sexual dysfunction is also rising. Sexual discomfort can result from vaginal wall thinning, stiffness, fatigue, and inability to achieve orgasm, affecting overall well-being and quality of life. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the improvement in female sexual function using the Indonesian version of the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) one week after pessary insertion in both sexually active (SA) and non-sexually active (NSA) women with POP. Methods: A descriptive before-and-after study was conducted on 20 women aged 50–65 years with POP grades II–IV at Al-Ihsan Hospital, Bandung, between November 2023 and January 2024. All subjects received ring pessary treatment. The FSFI questionnaire was administered before and one week after pessary insertion to assess sexual function. Results: Among 20 participants (mean age: 57 years), 16 (80%) reported sexual dysfunction before pessary insertion. After one week, 14 women (70%) were categorized as not having sexual dysfunction, while 6 (30%) remained in the dysfunction group. Of the 16 women initially affected, 11 (68%) experienced improved sexual function. The ring pessary proved effective without negatively affecting sexual activity. Conclusions: Pessary use in women with POP can improve sexual function without adverse effects on sexual intercourse. However, limitations include the small sample size, short follow-up, and use of only one pessary type. Additionally, multiple unmeasured factors, such as biological, cultural, and social factors, can influence outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide. Active management of the third stage of labor, including prophylactic uterotonics, is essential in reducing PPH incidence. Oxytocin is the first-line agent; however, misoprostol has been considered as an adjunct due to its stability, accessibility, and effectiveness. This meta-analysis evaluates the efficacy of the misoprostol-oxytocin combination compared to oxytocin alone in preventing PPH. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted following PRISMA guidelines using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library up to November 28, 2024. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the misoprostol-oxytocin combination versus oxytocin alone for PPH prevention were included. Statistical analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4, with mean difference (MD) and relative risk (RR) as effect measures. Heterogeneity was assessed using the I² statistic. Results: A total of seven RCTs met the inclusion criteria. The misoprostol-oxytocin combination significantly reduced the risk of PPH compared to oxytocin alone (RR 0.71; 95% CI 0.55–0.91; p=0.007; I²=54%). Blood loss was significantly lower in the combination group (MD -33.77 mL; 95% CI -62.27 to -5.26; p=0.02; I²=80%). Hemoglobin drop was also reduced (MD -0.75 g/dL; 95% CI -1.48 to -0.01; p=0.02; I²=84%). However, the combination therapy was associated with a higher incidence of pyrexia. Conclusion:The combination of misoprostol and oxytocin is more effective than oxytocin alone in reducing postpartum blood loss and hemoglobin drop. Despite increased pyrexia rates, its benefits in preventing PPH may outweigh the risks, particularly in high-risk populations. Further large-scale studies are needed to refine dosing strategies and assess long-term outcomes.

Abstract

Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women. In Indonesia cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women, with 50% of women died from the disease. Prevention of cervical cancer can be done by regular screening. Therefore, a national strategy was made by the Ministry of Health to accelerate Indonesia’s progress towards the elimination of cervical cancer. The strategy was adapted in local community health center, including Andalas Health Center. Cervical cancer screening rate at Puskesmas Andalas remains inadequate with coverqge of only 1.23%. This study aimed to determine the general characteristics, evaluate the level of knowledge and attitude regarding cervical cancer screening test, and assess the impact of health promotion through counseling and SOSIALITA pocketbook on knowledge and attitude of reproductive-aged women in the working area of Andalas Health Care. Methods: This study is a pre-experimental study with one group pretest-posttest method with respondents of 25 reproductive-aged women in working area of Andalas Health Center. Results: 40% women of reproductive age are in late adulthood (36-45 years), 80% had a senior high school education, 92% are not working, and 96% are married. Most reproductive-aged women have low-level knowledge (48%) and negative attitude (76%). The results of the pretest and posttest regarding cervical cancer detection test showed an increase in high-level knowledge and positive attitude. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between health counseling and SOSIALITA pocketbook and reproductive-aged women’s knowledge and attitude regarding cervical cancer early detection test (p<0.05) Keywords: cervical cancer, IVA test, HPV DNA test, early detection, reproductive health

Abstract

Background. Endometriosis stands as a prevalent benign gynecological condition. It involves the growth of tissue resembling the endometrium outside the uterus, typically impacting the ovaries and peritoneum. Symptoms commonly include premenstrual discomfort and dysmenorrhea. Objective. Knowing the characteristics and outcomes of endometriosis at Dr. M. Djamil Padang General Hospital for the 2023 period. Method. This study is descriptive research aimed at identifying the characteristics of endometriosis among patients at Dr. M. Djamil Padang General Hospital. Conducted in 2023, the study population initially consisted of 129 endometriosis patients. One year later, follow-up was conducted with 73 patients to assess recurrence. Result. There were more patients of reproductive age (97.7%, totaling 126 individuals) than perimenopausal age. The most common complaints reported by patients seeking treatment were dysmenorrhea (81.4%) and non-menstrual abdominal pain (7.8%). The majority of patients were nulliparous (87.6%), followed by multiparous (7%). In terms of BMI categories, most subjects were classified as normal weight (38%) or obese class I (19.4%). Endometriosis lesions were predominantly located in the internal pelvis, particularly in the ovaries (58.1%). Among patients experiencing infertility, the duration was often ≥5 years (31.8%). Nearly all patients received a three-month course of leuprolide acetate injections (97.3%), with additional therapy involving dienogest tablets for three months in 38.4% of cases. Recurrence of symptoms occurred in only 6.8% of patients, while 6.8% of patients became pregnant following treatment. Conclusion. This study concludes that the incidence of endometriosis is high in women of reproductive age. Providing good education about endometriosis is important in order to reduce the delay in diagnosis of this disease so that it can be treated when the stadium was still mild.
