We describe the updated Korean Society of Gynecologic Oncology (KSGO) practice guideline for the management of cervical cancer, version 5.1. The KSGO announced the fifth version of its clinical practice guidelines for the management of cervical cancer in March 2024. The selection of the key questions and the systematic reviews were based on data available up to December 2022. Between 2023 and 2024, substantial findings from large-scale clinical trials and new advancements in cervical cancer research remarkably emerged. Therefore, based on the existing version 5.0, we updated the guidelines with newly accumulated clinical data and added 4 new key questions reflecting the latest insights in the field of cervical cancer. For each question, recommendation was formulated with corresponding level of evidence and grade of recommendation, all established through expert consensus.

The Korean Society of Gynecologic Oncology has updated its clinical practice guidelines for endometrial cancer to incorporate advancements in recent high-quality randomized controlled trials. These guidelines address evolving treatment paradigms, and are tailored to the Korean medical context. Key updates include a strong recommendation for doxorubicin/trabectedin combination therapy in metastatic or recurrent unresectable leiomyosarcoma based on the significant survival benefits demonstrated in a randomized controlled trial. For advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with chemotherapy have received strong recommendations, owing to their proven efficacy and increased accessibility in Korea. Conditional recommendations were made for combination therapies involving durvalumab and olaparib, reflecting their potential benefits, but acknowledging regulatory and accessibility constraints. These guidelines aim to provide evidence-based, practical strategies to optimize care for patients with endometrial cancer while addressing unmet clinical needs and adapting global advancements to Korea’s healthcare environment.

Purpose: To report a case of contact lens-related infectious keratitis caused by three different bacterial species.Case summary: A 40-year-old man presented with pain and redness in his left eye. His best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the affected eye was 20/25. Slit-lamp examination revealed a 3 × 3 mm corneal epithelial defect with infiltration located 1 mm inferior to the pupil. Following admission, a microbial culture test was performed, and empirical antibiotic therapy was initiated. On the fourth day, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated from the corneal sample and the contact lens, while Serratia marcescens and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were isolated from the contact lens case. Based on the results of the antibiotic susceptibility tests, 0.5% moxifloxacin, fortified amikacin, and ceftazidime were administered topically and intravenously. The corneal epithelial defect reduced to 1 × 1 mm by the eleventh day of admission. After two months, BCVA improved to 20/20 with no remaining corneal epithelial defect, although an inactive corneal opacity persisted at the previous ulcer site. Conclusions Contact lens wear can be associated with polymicrobial keratitis involving three distinct Gram-negative bacteria, which may present greater treatment challenges compared to monomicrobial keratitis. Microbial culture testing of the contact lens, its case, and corneal scrapings is essential for identifying the causative organisms and selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy.
