Primary endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the rectovaginal septum is rare. Its pathogenesis is not clear and there is no standard treatment. One patient with endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the rectovaginal septum arising from deep infiltrative endometriosis was admitted to Qingdao Municipal Hospital. The patient presented with incessant menstruation and abdominal distension. She had bilateral ovarian endometriotic cystectomy 6 years ago. Imaging findings suggested a pelvic mass which might invade the rectovaginal septum. Pathological results of primary surgery confirmed endometrioid carcinoma of the pelvic mass arising from the rectovaginal septum. Then she had a comprehensive staged surgery. Postoperative chemotherapy was given 6 times. No recurrence or metastasis was found during the 2-year follow-up. The possibility of deep infiltrating endometriosis and its malignant transformation should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a new extragonadal pelvic lesion in a patient with a history of endometriosis, which would avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

BACKGROUNDThe infection risk of natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is of concern. The aim of this study was to assess the safety of NOTES by investigating the intraperitoneal bacterial load during transgastric and transvaginal procedures with antiseptic or controlling perioperative preparation.
METHODSForty-five female pigs were randomly assigned to five equal groups: the transgastric (TG) control group (group A), the TG middle volume gastric lavage group (group B), the TG high volume lavage group (group C), the transvaginal (TV) control group (group D) and the TV study group (group E). The study groups received gastric or vaginal lavage and abdominal antimicrobial irrigation, while the control groups received neither. All animals were administered intravenous antibiotics, underwent NOTES peritoneoscopy and transumbilical laparoscopic cholecystectomy under NOTES view with sterile instruments. The viscerotomy was closed by laparoscopic suture. The animals were observed until necropsy was performed 14 days postoperatively. Quantitative bacteriologic cultures were taken from the gastric or vaginal aspirate before and after lavage; peritoneal fluid was collected before and after peritoneal irrigation and at necropsy.
RESULTSThe surgical procedures were completed for all the pigs and all of them survived. The mean operative time of the TG group and the TV group was (81 ± 27) minutes and (66 ± 12) minutes, respectively. All animals survived for 14 days. At necropsy, significantly more peritoneal infections were noted in group A than in group D (5:9 vs. 0:9; P < 0.05). No gross evidence of intra-peritoneal infection was found in groups B, C, D and E. Bacteriological evidence was seen in all pigs in group A, 7 pigs in group B, 6 pigs in group D, and none in groups C and E.
CONCLUSIONSWithout gastric or vaginal lavage and antibiotic peritoneal irrigation, the TG procedure has a higher infection rate than the TV access. After antiseptic preparation, the bacterial load significantly decreased in the TG group, which seems as safe as the sterile TV approach.

6.Chinese experts consensus on diagnosis and treatment of rectovaginal fistula (2022 edition).
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2022;25(12):1073-1080
Rectovaginal fistula (RVF) is an abnormal connection between the rectum and the vagina. At present, the principle method for RVF is surgery. With a variety of surgical methods, clinicians still lack a generally recognized consensus on RVF. Therefore, based on latest evidence from literature and expert experience, the Clinical Guidelines Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association Anorectal Branch organized domestic experts in anorectal surgery and gynecology to discuss the etiology, classification, diagnosis, treatment and special types of rectovaginal fistula of RVF, through questionnaires and expert seminars. "Chinese experts consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of rectovaginal fistula (2022 edition)" was produced in order to deepen the understanding of RVF, and to provide a standardized treatment for RVF in order to reduce the failure rate of surgery.

Uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly. Excision of the obstructed vaginal septum is the treatment of choice for symptom relief and the preservation of reproductive capability. A 14-yr-old girl complained of persistent vaginal spotting following each menstruation. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging revealed a uterus didelphys with left hematocolpos and ipsilateral renal agenesis. Instead of conventional transvaginal excision of the vaginal septum, we used hysteroscopic excision under transabdominal ultrasonographic guidance to preserve the integrity of the hymen. The postoperative course was uneventful, and clinical symptoms were completely resolved after this intervention. Resectoscopic excision of the vaginal septum was found to be easy, safe, effective, and appropriate for young women as it preserved hymen integrity. We believe that this is the first Korean report on the use of a hysteroscopy for vaginal septum resection in a patient with uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical efficacy of rectocele repair with longitudinal incision and transverse suture on the vaginal posterior wall.
METHODSOne hundred and forty-six patients with rectocele were enrolled in our study from August 1999 to August 2003. The patients were randomly divided into two groups, and received traditional repair with longitudinal incision and longitudinal suture (control group, n=74) or repair with longitudinal incision and transverse suture on the vaginal posterior wall (study group, n=72). The efficacy and complications were compared between the two groups.
RESULTSIn the study group,only one case (1.4%) had no effect, and the total effective rate was 98.7%. The mean course of treatment was (11.0+/- 1.9) days. Only two cases (2.7%) had postoperative complication. In the control group, 8 cases (11.1%) had no effect, and the total effective rate was 88.9%. The mean course of treatment was (17.4+/- 1.6) days. Twenty-nine cases (40.3%) had postoperative complications. There were significant differences in the efficacy and complications between the two groups (both P< 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe refined rectocele repair with longitudinal incision and transverse suture on the vaginal posterior wall has good efficacy with shorter curative period and less complications.

BACKGROUNDInside out transobturator vaginal tape (TVT-O) and tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) are predominant surgical treatments for female stress urinary incontinence. This meta-analysis evaluated the complications and cure rates of TVT-O versus TVT.
METHODSA comprehensive literature search was conducted according to the Cochrane Collaboration methodology to identify randomized controlled clinical trials with no language restriction. Two authors independently assessed papers for eligibility and methodological quality. Estimates were measured by relative risk with 95% confidence intervals. Outcome measures were objective cure, subjective cure and complications. Quality rating for each outcome of the meta-analysis and recommendations were performed by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system.
RESULTSTwenty randomized controlled trials met the inclusion criteria, and a pooled estimate of effectiveness and complications was made. Relative risks with 95% confidence intervals for pooled effects under the fixed effects model were: 0.20 (0.09 - 0.45), for bladder injury, 0.37 (0.16 - 0.86) for hematoma, and 2.35 (1.57 - 3.51) for postoperative pain, suggesting an 80% risk reduction of bladder injury, 63% risk reduction of hematoma, and a 1.35% risk elevation for postoperative pain with TVT-O. There was no significant difference between complications of urinary tract infection 1.14 (0.78 - 1.65), lower urinary tract symptoms 1.60 (0.67 - 3.79), recatheterization 0.93 (0.59 - 1.44), and tape erosion 0.90 (0.48 - 1.67), total objective cure rate 1.06 (0.39 - 2.84) and for the subjective cure rate 0.98 (0.93 - 1.04). The quality rating for each outcome and recommendations was high for objective cure, bladder injury, hematoma, lower urinary tract symptoms, and tape erosion and moderate for subjective cure, pain, and urinary tract infection.
CONCLUSIONSTVT-O is associated with a reduced risk of bladder injury and hematoma and an elevated risk of postoperative pain. Other complications, including tape erosion, urinary tract infection, lower urinary tract symptoms, and recatheterization, are similar to those of TVT.
