Inguinal dehiscence was present in 17 of 53 (32.1%) patients in group B and in 9 of 54 (16.7%) in group A (P=0.10). Lymphocele was observed in 10 of 53 lymphadenectomies (18.9%) in group B and in 3 of 54 dissections (5.6%) in group A (P=0.07). Upper incision allows more precise identification of the Camper fascia, is less painful, and gives better cosmetic results. Moreover, there may be advantage, albeit not statistically significant, regarding flap length, wound dehiscence rate, and speed of wound healing. There was no difference in chronic leg edema, number of nodes removed, or hospital stay.

In carefully selected patients, vaginectomy may be considered a therapeutic option for IVR. Older patients with long disease-free interval and small recurrences benefit the most from this bladder-sparing surgical technique.

BACKGROUND:Urocortin is a neuropeptide produced by the human endometrium and has biological effects putatively important for promoting blastocyst implantation. We measured urocortin concentrations in samples of endometrial wash fluid collected from women with unexplained infertility who underwent intrauterine insemination (IUI).
