“…This is different from baboons where adenomyosis is much more common than leiomyoma, and in humans where leiomyomas (fibroids) are much more prevalent than adenomyosis . This difference should be considered, when evaluating a uterine mass in a chimpanzee, as imaging alone may be insufficient for a definitive diagnosis . Neoplasms of the gastrointestinal system were comprised of mostly oral papillomas and hepatocellular carcinomas.…”

Background We present the spontaneous pathological lesions identified as a result of necropsy or biopsy for 245 chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) over a 35-year period. Methods A review of the pathology database was performed for all diagnoses on chimpanzees from 1980 to 2014. All morphologic diagnoses, associated system, organ, etiology, and demographic information were reviewed and analyzed. Results Cardiomyopathy was the most frequent lesion observed followed by hemosiderosis, hyperplasia, nematodiasis, edema, and hemorrhage. The most frequently affected systems were the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, urogenital, respiratory, and lymphatic/hematopoietic systems. The most common etiology was undetermined, followed by degenerative, physiologic, neoplastic, parasitic, and bacterial. Conclusions Perinatal and infant animals were mostly affected by physiologic etiologies and chimpanzee-induced trauma. Bacterial and physiologic etiologies were more common in juvenile animals. Degenerative and physiologic (and neoplastic in geriatric animals) etiologies predominated in adult, middle aged, and geriatric chimpanzees.

Although other benign conditions have a high prevalence in the reproductive age in women, leiomyoma and adenomyosis are the major clinical challenges in gynecology. Often, under diagnosed adenomyosis commonly coexists with uterine fibroids. This retrospective study aimed to identify the clinical characteristics and also to assess the effectiveness of transvaginal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of leiomyoma, adenomyosis or in the coexistence of the two entities, thus to establish the optimal treatment.

“…29 Doppler and 3D ultrasound are newer imaging modalities that have shown success in differentiating between adenomyosis and leiomyomas, and delineating vascular patterns around fibroids. 30,31 Further studies are needed to validate the usefulness of 3D ultrasound and Doppler in preoperative imaging. MRI currently allows the most accurate mapping of the fibroids and can potentially help decrease operative times and errors given its superior detection or location of fibroids.…”

The Role of Hysteroscopic and Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Myomectomy in the Setting of Infertility

Fibroids, the most common gynecologic condition in women of reproductive age, have traditionally been treated with hysterectomy. As more women delay childbearing, myomectomy becomes an essential component of the gynecologist's armamentarium. Minimally invasive approaches to myomectomy have been shown to decrease morbidity and reduce care-related costs, while improving reproductive outcomes. Hysteroscopic myomectomy is a reproducible and easily learned technique for the treatment of submucosal fibroids. Robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy overcomes most of the technical challenges of laparoscopic myomectomy for intramural and subserosal fibroids. The combined adoption of these technologies will allow more patients with fibroids to benefit from a minimally invasive approach.
