Treatment of basal cell carcinoma with
curettage alone.
Treatment includes extended
curettage or resection.
All included patients were diagnosed with acquired uterine AVM secondary to
curettage, cesarean section, or GTD.
The researchers found that the estimated recurrence rates were similar for excision, Mohs surgery,
curettage and diathermy, and external-beam radiation (3.8, 3.8, 6.9, and 3.5 percent, respectively).
Endometrial samples were obtained by dilatation and
curettage or pipelle biopsy.
The traditional method of management of these conditions has been uterine evacuation and
curettage both manual and electric.
Rawalpindi -- Chief Executive Officer Health Rawalpindi has launched an inquiry against the staffers of Basic Health Unit Hayyal Sharif for carrying out dilation and
curettage of a poor woman by an ill-trained lady health worker after taking money, sources informed The Nation on Saturday.
Curettage with or without bone grafting has been shown to have a highly variable recurrence rate of anywhere from 7 to 30% in larger studies [2, 6].
However, operative treatment is most commonly pursued, and first-line treatment is intralesional
curettage. Local adjuvants are often added to decrease the recurrence rate, and multiple studies suggest its increased efficacy compared to
curettage alone [6-8].
Surgical management is traditionally via blind
curettage and is considered the gold standard [3-5].
The patient was admitted with vaginal bleeding, which was diagnosed as partial molar pregnancy, and a suction
curettage was performed.
A simple incision alone, without
curettage of the sinus tracts and cavity, has been reported to result in recurrence at a rate of approximately 24% in cases of acute pilonidal abscess.
