“…4 With the emergence of additional literature, 3 a reassessment of the totality of evidence is now timely. 8 We conducted a meta-analysis of all published randomized clinical trials of total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH) versus total abdominal hysterectomy (TAH) to provide estimates of (i) long-term clinical outcomes (recurrence, DFS, and OS) both at fixed time points and over the whole follow-up periods, (ii) the rate of morbidity associated with each procedure, and (iii) the NI margins.…”

“…Another randomized trial showed that the use of open surgery and laparoscopic surgery resulted in equivalent survival outcomes [ 133 ]. However, in that study, only selected surgeons performed surgery on a highly selected group of endometrioid carcinoma patients [ 134 ]. A previous study showed that patients treated with minimally invasive surgery had a shorter recurrence-free survival than those treated with open surgery, though overall survival was similar between the two groups [ 135 ].…”

Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological tract malignancy in developed countries, and its incidence has been increasing globally with rising obesity rates and longer life expectancy. In endometrial cancer, extrauterine disease, in particular lymph node metastasis, is an important prognostic factor. Nevertheless, pelvic lymphadenectomy is not considered to have a therapeutic benefit, as it did not improve survival in randomized studies. However, lymphadenectomy may have a therapeutic benefit if adjuvant therapy can be omitted without decreasing oncological outcomes, as the long-term quality of life is maintained by avoiding morbidities associated with adjuvant therapy. In intermediate- and high-risk endometrioid endometrial carcinomas, adjuvant therapy may be safely omitted without decreasing long-term survival by open surgery including systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy when patients are node-negative. Systematic lymphadenectomy may remove undetectable low-volume lymph node metastasis in both pelvic and para-aortic regions, and open surgery may reduce vaginal recurrence even without vaginal brachytherapy. However, lymphadenectomy may not improve survival in elderly patients and patients with p53-mutant tumors. In this review, I discuss the characteristics of lymph node metastasis, the methods of lymph node assessment, and the therapeutic benefits of systematic lymphadenectomy in patients with intermediate- and high-risk endometrioid endometrial carcinoma.

“…The Court of Appeals for the Eight Circuit in Henne v. Wright determined that prevention of fraud was a legitimate state interest. 114 In Henne, the plaintiff mother sought to give her newborn daughter a different surname than that of her husband, whom she was in the process of divorcing. 115 The soon-to-be ex-husband was also not the biological father of the newborn child.…”

Who Wears the Pants? The Difficulties Men Face When Trying to Take Their Spouse's Surname after Marriage

Marital laws in the majority of states currently limit or impose significant obstacles for men seeking to change their surname upon marriage, unequal to laws regarding women who change their surname change. Women currently have the right to sign a marriage license and take their husband's name or some combination name. In contrast, only nine states provide men with the same opportunity. In the remaining states, men usually must apply for a formal name change in order to legally take their wives' surname. This process requires paying a substantial court filing fee, dealing with drawn out court proceedings and, in some cases, being required to post in newspapers personal information (such as financial information) as well as the petition to change one's name. This Note argues that it is unconstitutional for states to have unequal procedures for men and women to change their surnames upon marriage, resulting in a violation of men's equal protection rights; thus, states can avoid a judicial decision that the current name change statute is unconstitutional by simply equalizing the standard, making it gender neutral.Key Points for the Family Court Community:• Women have the statutory right to either change their last name upon marriage or retain their maiden name in all fifty states • Men are provided the same procedure as women to change their surname upon marriage in only nine states • The process for men to change their surname upon marriage in the majority of states can be time consuming, expensive and, when all is said and done, a judge usually has unlimited discretion to decide such matters • Men typically must adhere to formal name change procedures to change their surname after marriage, primarily by petitioning the court • The issue is that it is unconstitutional for states to have unequal procedures for men and women to change their surname upon marriage in violation of husbands' equal protection rights • Courts should strike down statutes that discriminate against men changing their surname upon marriage or extend to men the same rights women currently have in all states
