    Transvaginal sonography was performed in 70 patients diagnosed to have placenta praevia by transabdominal sonography. The diagnosis was confirmed either by digital examination in theatre at term or operative finding at delivery. Forty-nine cases (70%) were correctly diagnosed to have placenta praevia by both modes of sonography. Transvaginal sonography ruled out placenta praevia in 12 cases (17%) thought to be placenta praevia by transabdominal ultrasound. Both transabdominal and transvaginal sonography demonstrated 'placental migration' in 4 cases (6%) which were no longer praevia at delivery. Five patients (7%) were erroneously believed to have placenta praevia by both sonographic techniques. Overall, the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal sonography was 92.8% compared with 75.7% for transabdominal sonography. None of the subjects experienced any exacerbation of bleeding or other complications. The results suggest that transvaginal sonographic localization of the placenta is safe and superior to the transabdominal route.

    A case is described of profuse uterine bleeding with a dislodged Multiload Cu 250 intrauterine device (IUD). Multiple blood transfusions were necessary, and ultimately, an emergency hysterectomy was performed.

    A 3 year retrospective review (1995 to 1997) of 127 patients with cervical dysplasia who underwent Laser Vaporisation of the cervix and LEEP at the Gynaecological Cancer Centre, KK Women's & Children's Hospital, Singapore, was undertaken. Amongst the patients in the Laser Vaporisation group, the mean age was 37.7 years (SD 8.8), the mean operating time was 14.8 minutes (SD 8.5), 63.6% were given prophylactic antibiotics and the mean follow up period was 15.3 months (SD 12.0), whilst in the LEEP group, mean age was 40.3 years (SD 8.4), mean operating time, 11.8 minutes (SD 4.9), prophylactic antibiotic rate, 53.8% and mean follow up period was 19.1 months (SD 9.3). Mild and moderate haemorrhage post procedure were the only complications encountered, 10.2% (5/49) in the Laser group and 3.8% (3/78) in the LEEP group. 98% (48/49) and 97.4% (76/78) of the Laser and LEEP groups, respectively, were free of disease on follow up. None of the 3 patients with persistent or recurrent disease were diagnosed as having invasive cancer. Overall, there were no significant differences in the patient characteristics, histopathology, operating times, follow up period, the use of prophylactic antibiotics, and complications in the 2 groups. The low complication rate, high disease-free rate and the relatively short operating time of Laser Vaporisation and LEEP in our study suggests that, indeed, both the procedures can be done safely and efficiently in the outpatient setting. However the discrepancy between the histology of colposcopically directed biopsy and that of LEEP specimens suggests that colposcopically directed biopsy may not be as accurate as one might believe, and further studies analysing the concordance between colposcopically directed biopsy and LEEP biopsy histologies are needed.

    This is a rare case of antepartum haemorrhage arising from the nonpregnant uterus in a woman with uterine didelphys. The bleeding and subsequent passage of a decidual cast did not have any adverse effect on the ongoing pregnancy.

    This study reviews experiences in the management of three cases of lacerations of the vagina following coitus. A brief review of the recent literature is made. Although the extent of injuries can be very variable, the principles of management consist of prompt
    resuscitation and arrest of haemorrhage, appropriate surgical repair under general anaesthesia, and systemic or local antibiotic therapy to combat infection. Avoidance of vigorous or abnormal coital practices, especially in single women, in the immediate postpartum period, and in postmenopausal women, can help to reduce the frequency and severity of such injuries.

    Fistula formation following pelvic surgery and radiotherapy, including ureteric-arterial fistulas (UAF), is well documented, however, ureteric-arterial-enteric fistula is extremely rare. Conventional autopsy is usually required for the definitive diagnosis of pelvic vascular fistulas although an accurate diagnosis can still be complicated and challenging. The role of post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT) as an adjunct to conventional autopsy is well documented in the literature. One of the limitations of PMCT is the diagnosis of vascular conditions. Post-mortem computed tomography angiography (PMCTA) is a recently introduced technique that can assist in detecting such pathology. We present a case of post-radiotherapy ureteric-arterial-enteric fistula presenting as massive rectal and vaginal bleeding diagnosed prior to autopsy on PMCTA. The role of PMCTA in the diagnosis of such a UAF has not previously been reported in the literature.

    Sixty cases with uterine leiomyomata in pregnancy are presented. The incidence was 1 in 1033 deliveries. The median age of the patients was 33.4 years. The majority were primigravidae (60%). A significant number of patients gave a history of infertility (43%) and spontaneous abortions (25%). The commonest antenatal complication was malpresentation and in all these patients the myomata were larger than 6 cm. Typical features of red degeneration occurred in 10% of cases. The cesarean section rate was 73%, the commonest indication being obstructed labor. Severe hemorrhage was encountered at cesarean section in 10 patients, 3 of whom needed hysterectomy. There were no perinatal deaths.

    Intramyometrial ectopic pregnancy (IMEP) is a rare form of ectopic pregnancy. It is defined as a conceptus implanted within the myometrium and is completely surrounded by myometrium with clear separation from both the uterine cavity and tubes. IMEP possesses not only diagnostic but also therapeutic challenge. The majority of reported cases were managed by hysterectomy. Early management of unruptured IMEP using methotrexate may help to preserve fertility. We, for the first time, report a case of ruptured IMEP managed successfully using suction and curettage followed by Bakri balloon tamponade and avoiding hysterectomy. Post-procedure, the patient received two doses of intramuscular methotrexate 50 mg/m2 due to plateauing serial beta human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) levels and subsequently achieved undetectable level 10 weeks post-methotrexate. She also had complete resolution of the ectopic intramyometrial mass.
