(1) Background: A quarter of maternal deaths are caused by post-partum hemorrhage; hence obstetric bleeding is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among women. Pelvic artery embolization (PAE) represents a minimally invasive interventional procedure which plays an important role in conservative management of significant bleeding in Obstetrics and Gynecology. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect and the complications of PAE in patients with significant vaginal bleeding with different obstetrical and gynecological pathologies. (2) Methods: We conducted an observational, retrospective study on 1135 patients who presented to the University Emergency Hospital of Bucharest with vaginal bleeding of various etiology treated with endovascular therapy. All the patients included in the study presented vaginal hemorrhage that was caused by: uterine leiomyomas, genital tract malignancies, ectopic pregnancy, arterio-venous mal-formations and other obstetrical causes. We excluded patients with uncontrolled high blood pressure, severe hepatic impairment, congestive heart failure, renal failure or ventricular arrhythmias. (3) Results: Bleeding was caused in 88.19% of cases by uterine leiomyomas (n = 1001), 7.84% (n = 89) by cervical cancer, 2.29% by ectopic pregnancy (n = 26), 1.23% by arteriovenous malformation (n = 14) and 0.52% by major hemorrhage of obstetrical causes. Endovascular procedures were used in all the cases. In patients with uterine leiomyomas, supra-selective uterine arteries embolization was used. In 97% (n = 1101) of patients, bleeding was stopped after the first attempt of PAE. 3% (n = 34) needed a second embolization. In 12 of 14 cases of AVM, PAE was successful, two other cases needed reintervention; (4) Conclusions: Endovascular procedures represent a major therapy method for both acute and chronic hemorrhage in Obstetrics and Gynecology. It can be used in post-partum or post-traumatic causes of vaginal bleeding, but also in patients with chronic hemorrhage from uterine leiomyomas or inoperable genital malignancies or even as a preoperative adjuvant in cases of voluminous uterine fibroids or invasive malignant tumors, aiming to reduce intraoperative hemorrhage.

Placental site trophoblastic tumour (PSTT) is a very rare and unique form of gestational trophoblastic tumour, representing about 1-2% of all gestational trophoblastic tumours. Usually, the pattern is a slow growing nodule implicating the endometrium and myometrium, accompanied by abnormal uterine bleeding. Three ultrasound types of PSTT are described, but thereis no specific characteristic for diagnosis. We present the case of a patient with an atypical placental site trophoblastic tumour diagnosed two months after a caesarean scar pregnancy. In the presented case there are several particularities, such as the rapid growth and progression of the tumour, the limitation to the myometrium and the difficulty of the differential diagnosis and approach.

The article represents an analysis of a confirmed case of digestive neoplasia noted during the last trimester of pregnancy, in which we tried to assess osseous metastases, in correlation with their clinical development and histopathological features. The International Agency for Research on Cancer reported that during the year of 2018, in Romania, a total of 11.076 new cases of colorectal cancer were documented, ranking this type of neoplasia as the 2nd among the most common types of cancer in our country.

Uterine rupture is a significant maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality factor. It is defined as the complete cleaving of the three uterine layers. The pregnancy distention leads to alteration of the uterine wall fibers, especially in the low resistance points like surgical scars. World Health Organization realized an extensive systematic review to determine the prevalence of uterine rupture. A lower prevalence was seen in developed countries and higher rates for least developed countries. The incidence of uterine rupture in women with caesarean section is estimated to be 1% and without caesarean section is as low as 0.006%. Although the uterine scar is the main feature of uterine rupture, other contributing influences on untoward outcomes must be promptly recognized. The aim of this paper was to assess the frequency of uterine ruptures in a tertiary referral center, to identify risk factors and symptoms for complete and partial uterine rupture before labor, common symptoms of uterine rupture, multidisciplinary approach, and emergency surgical management.

This article analyses a series of 22 confirmed cases of ovarian cancer throughout a period of 14 months (January 2018 - February 2019), in which we assessed the incidence of osseous metastases, in correlation with their histological features. This retrospective study, based on medical imaging techniques, demonstrates that bone metastases are not uncommon in ovarian cancer.
