Q

What positioning causes the majority of femoral nerve compression? P/w? MCC? RF’s? Trmt?

A

Extreme flexion, abduction and external rotation of the hip can cause femoral nerve to be compressed under inguinal ligament. Cutaneous dysthesia in anterior/medial thigh, anteromedial leg/foot, decreased leg extension and thigh flexion, most objective = decreased/absent knee reflex. MCC’s = poor positioning, compression from retractors & hematoma, suture transfixation, surgical transection. RF’s = BMI

Q

Causes of postpartum incontinence? Work-up? Trmt?

A

MCC = anal sphincter injuries, pudendal nerve injury, neuro (MS), GI (IBS) and Rx’s. PE for sphincter tone assessment and endoanal U/S. Only 35% of those with e/o sphincter probs on U/S were incontinent. Fecal incontinence = 60 sensitive and 80% specific for sphincter injury. Trmt = EMG biofeedback for weakness but no anatomic deficit. Anal sphincteroplasty if + anatomic deficit AND symptomatic. Neurophysiologic testing for those suspected with pudendal injury.

Q

MC’ly occurs in 2nd-4th decade of life - inflammation of apocrine glands in axillary, periareolar, perianal regions = ?. RF’s? Trmt? Complications

A

Hidradenitis Suppurativa (Ddx = chron’s folliculitis, and granulomatous STI). RF’s = obesity, DM, perianal antiperspirant use, androgen excess, poor hygiene, smoking. Patho = follicular hyperkeratosis w/ plugging of pore. Vulvular SCC = 5% w/ dx. Medical therapies = long-term antibiotics, antiandrogens, retinoic acid, cyclosporin. Surgery if refractory and extensive. Complications = scarring, draining sinuses, cutaneous fistulae

Q

Common locations, presentations, and trmt of: bartholin cyst, skene duct cyst, inclusion cyst, urethral diverticulum, fibroma.

A

Bartholin cyst - posterior lateral vulva, MC’ly present after sexually active; MC 2/2 infections. Acutely can drain and place word catheter; recurrent cases can get marsupialization

Skene duct cyst - marsupialize in children, total excision in adults b/c accompanied by chronic inflam(remnant of urogenital sinus derivatives)

Inclusion cyst - MC cystic mass of the vagina, found in lower third of vagina; occur from birth trauma or prev pelvic surg and contain yellow/oily substance - only need to excise if painful

Urethral diverticulum - distinguished from skene duct cyst via locale - suburethral midline; occur 30-50 yo’s from congenital probs, trauma, but MC’ly infection. Diverticulectomy in proximal/middle third, marsupialization if distal

Fibroma - MC benign solid tumors of the vulva, found midline to anterior, freely mobile. If suspicious or painful, wide local excision

Bifurcation of aorta occurs at umbilicus or right below. Left common iliac vein at risk because lowest at midline and thin walled.

Q

Progressive treatment of uterine inversion?

A
  • Immediate attempt at replacement
  • If uterus is contracted, may need anesthesia’s help with tocolytic to then attempt replacement
  • Huntington Procedure: laparotomy, clamping inside of “ring” (created by inversion) below level of cervix with subsequent traction, re-clamping, and more traction to “fish it out”
  • Haultaim Procedure: laparotomy with incision in the posterior “ring” in attempt to create more space to replace uterus

For Toxo: MCC? What GA is it worse to be infected? Why to be cautious with testing?

A

MCC = eating undercooked meat. Can also get it from consuming insect-contaminated foods, handling cat litter that contains oocysts from infected cats.

Worse to be infected earlier in pregnanct. Risk of becoming infected increases w/ GA.

Risk of neonatal transmission if placenta has parasitemia = 20-50%

Most infants with congenital Toxo are asymptomatic at birth but 90% will have hearing/visual damage in childhood.

Increased LH leads to hyperandrogenism and increased insulin resistance

SERM needed to increase FSH production by pituitary gland. Clomiphene citrate inhibits feedback inhibition at both pituitary (increasing FSH) and hypothalamus (increasing GnRH), thus promoting ovulation

3) Extension -allows fetal occiput to come into direct contact with inferior margin of PS
4) Internal rotation - allows rotation that allows the fetal occiput to move towards the PS
5) External Rotation - allows bisacromial diameter (outermost border of shoulders) into relation with AP diameter of the pelvic outlet

161
Q

MC antigen responsible for NAIT? What determines if each subsequent pregnancy is affected? Treatment options in future pregnancies?

A

HPA-1a (Human Platelet Antigen-1a). Pregnancy becomes affected by fetal platelet antigens being present with absent antigen in maternal circulation. However, the incidence is lower because you need maternal-fetal hemorrhage to occur and it has to be enough to cause immunogenic response. Each subsequent pregnanc is affected if paternity is the same (because mom’s antigen is going to become present).
