    Abstract Background: Rescue cervical cerclage (RCC) is essentially a salvage procedure to prolong pregnancy in women with advanced cervical changes and prolapsed membranes in the second trimester. However, its effectiveness and safety remain controversial.
    Objectives: To provide a comprehensive review of the contemporary evidence on RCC and evaluate which treatment modalities can be offered to pregnant women based on the best available evidence.
    Search strategy: A PubMed search of published studies on RCC and perinatal outcome was conducted using defined keywords.
    Selection criteria: Clinical studies were included with priority for level I evidence (randomized controlled trials [RCTs]) followed by other evidence levels.
    Data collection and analysis: Abstracts of 141 articles were screened and 40 articles were selected.
    Main results: Evidence from retrospective and nonrandomized prospective trials shows a benefit of RCC. It may prolong pregnancy by an average of 4-5 weeks, with a 2-fold reduction in the chance of preterm birth before 34 weeks. A higher chance of failure is expected if cervical dilatation exceeds 4 cm or if membranes are bulging into the vagina.
    Conclusions: The decision for an RCC should be individualized after comprehensive counseling by a senior obstetrician. Further research in the form of robust RCTs is recommended.

    Abstract Objective: To determine the volume of pelvic fluid and febrile morbidity after hysterectomy in which the peritoneum was or was not closed.
    Design: Prospective single-center study.
    Participants: Fifty-four women undergoing abdominal hysterectomy were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomized into two groups according to peritoneal closure: group I (n = 28) in which the peritoneum was closed, and group II (n = 26) in which the peritoneum was left open. All participants had early postoperative transvaginal ultrasound.
    Outcome measures: Volume of pelvic fluid accumulated after hysterectomy, total leukocytic count before and after hysterectomy, body temperature over the first 24 h, and wound healing.
    Results: There was a statistically significant difference between both groups regarding the volume of pelvic fluid collection, the duration of the operation and number of ampoules needed (p < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference regarding body temperature, TLC, and wound complications.
    Conclusion: Peritoneal non-closure does not increase short-term morbidity, however it does cause an increase in peritoneal pelvic fluid. The impact of this on long-term sequelae as adhesions should be investigated.

    Abstract Background: Randomized trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews have challenged the claim for superiority of recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (recFSH) compared with human-derived FSH (hFSH). Even so, much of the evidence comes from unavailable products. If the efficacy of the currently available Fostimon(®) is superior, the off-market Metrodin-HP(®), then data from the latter should not be used, gauge of the former.
    Methods: Electronic/hand searches were performed to identify RCTs comparing Fostimon(®) vs. Metrodin-HP(®) or either product with recFSH. Primary outcomes were live-birth rate (LBR), ongoing pregnancy rate (OPR), and OPR/LBR. Secondary outcomes were clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), multiple pregnancy rate (MPR), ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), abortion rates, and cycle demographics. Data were extracted, allowed for an intention-to-treat analysis, and meta-analyzed using combined direct/adjusted indirect methods.
    Results: Twenty-two RCTs met the inclusion criteria: Fostimon(®) vs. Metrodin-HP(®) (n = 2); Fostimon(®) vs. recFSH (n = 8); and Metrodin-HP(®) vs. recFSH (n = 12). LBR (odds ratio = 1.72; 95% confidence interval = 1.05-2.80), OPR/LBR, and CPR were all significantly higher favoring Fostimon(®). OPR, MPR, OHSS, and miscarriage rates were not significantly different. Pooled results for cycle demographics were not reported due to high heterogeneity. Conclusions. Fostimon(®) is superior to Metrodin-HP(®) regarding clinical outcomes. Therefore, care should be taken not to assume that all hFSH products have the same efficacy.
