Obturator hernia should always be in the differential diagnosis in septuagenarian to nonagenarian patients with nonspecific signs and symptoms of intestinal obstruction. Computed tomography of abdomen and pelvis has been found to be the gold standard for preoperative diagnosis and this condition necessitates immediate surgical reduction and repair of the defect either by open or laparoscopic approach.

Novel hydrophilic docetaxel analogue (CQMU-0519) inhibited cell proliferation and enhanced the intrinsic apoptotic pathway in lung and ovarian carcinoma cells, whereas it used the extrinsic one in breast adenocarcinoma cells.

In our era there has been several anti-cancer drugs which have undergone both experimental and clinical trials; however, due to their poor solubilities, numerous side effects, insufficient bioavailability and poor compliance, many have resulted into poor outcomes. Therefore, our aim was to investigate the effects of novel hydrophilic taxanes analogues CQMU-0517 and CQMU-0519 on growth of A549 lung, SKVO3 ovary and MCF7 breast carcinoma cell lines. Different concentrations of original paclitaxel, CQMU-0517, original docetaxel and CQMU-0519 were utilized on three cell lines, where cell growth was assessed using cell culture kit-8 and flow cytometry analysis. The results unveiled that CQMU-0517 and CQMU-0519 suppressed cell growth in the three particular cell lines, cell cycle arrest being evident in the G2/M phase. Hence, the results showed that these new taxane analogues have potential and warrant future clinical trials.
