J Magn Reson Imaging 2024; 59:1787-1797. [PMID: 37671487 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28943] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 07/22/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A referenced MRI-based classification associated with focused ultrasound ablation surgery (FUAS) outcomes is lacking in adenomyosis. PURPOSE To identify an MRI-based classification system for informing the FUAS outcomes. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION Patients with FUAS for adenomyosis, were divided into a training set (N = 643; 355 with post-FUAS gonadotropin-releasing hormone/levonorgestrel, 288 without post-FUAS therapy) and an external validation set (N = 135; all without post-FUAS therapy). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 1.5 T, turbo spin-echo T2-weighted imaging and single-shot echo-planar diffusion-weighted imaging sequences. ASSESSMENT Five MRI-based adenomyosis classifications: classification 1 (C1) (diffuse, focal, and mild), C2 (intrinsic, extrinsic, intramural, and indeterminate), C3 (internal, adenomyomas, and external), C4 (six subtypes on areas [internal or external] and volumes [<1/3 or ≥2/3]), and C5 (internal [asymmetric or symmetric], external, intramural, full thickness [asymmetric or symmetric]) for FUAS outcomes (symptom relief and recurrence). STATISTICAL TESTS The optimal classification was significantly associated with the most subtypes of FUAS outcomes. Relating to the timing of recurrence was measured using Cox regression analysis and median recurrence time was estimated by a Kaplan-Meier curve. A P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Dysmenorrhea relief and recurrence were only associated with C2 in training patients undergoing FUAS alone. Compared with other subtypes, the extrinsic subtype of C2 was significantly associated with dysmenorrhea recurrence in the FUAS group. Besides, the median dysmenorrhea recurrence time of extrinsic subtype was significantly shorter than that of other subtypes (42.0 months vs. 50.3 months). In the validation cohort, C2 was confirmed as the optimal system and its extrinsic subtype was confirmed to have a significantly shorter dysmenorrhea recurrence time than other subtypes. DATA CONCLUSION Classification 2 can inform dysmenorrhea relief and recurrence in patients with adenomyosis undergoing FAUS only. Itsextrinsic subtype was associated with an earlier onset of dysmenorrhea recurrence after treatment. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 5.

[PMID: 38250313 PMCID: PMC10799626 DOI: 10.2147/jmdh.s435365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective Adenomyosis patients are in a hypercoagulable state, and studies have shown that carbohydrate antigen125 (CA125) may relate to the hypercoagulability and thrombosis of patients with adenomyosis, but there is still a lack of clarity regarding the changes in CA125-related coagulation indicators. This study was to explore the changes and influencing factors of CA125-related coagulation parameters in patients with adenomyosis. Methods Retrospective observational study conducted on 200 patients with adenomyosis (AM group), 240 patients with uterine leiomyoma (LM group) and 81 patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)-III (control group), of which the coagulation parameters were detected by clinical blood sample collection and statistical method analysis and informed consent was obtained. Results The level of CA125 in the AM group was significantly higher than that in the LM group and control group. However, thrombin time (TT) shortened in the AM group when compared with the LM and control group. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) in the AM group was shorter than in the control group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that adenomyosis was associated with CA125 level (OR=323.860, 95% CI 90.424-1159.924, P<0.001), APTT (OR=1.295, 95% CI 1.050-1.598, P=0.016), TT (OR=0.642, 95% CI 0.439-0.938, P=0.022), menorrhagia (OR=7.363, 95% CI 2.544-21.315, P<0.001), dysmenorrhea (OR=22.590, 95% CI 8.185-62.347, P<0.001). Correlation analysis revealed that APTT (r= -0.207) and TT (r = -0.174) were negatively correlated with the level of CA125. Conclusion The shortening of CA125-related APTT and TT indicates that it is meaningful to detect coagulation parameters of patients with elevated CA125 levels early, dysmenorrhea and menorrhagia, and maybe further discover the hypercoagulability and prevent the occurrence of thrombus in adenomyosis.

Ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation for adenomyosis with abnormal uterine bleeding: clinical outcome and associated factors. Int J Hyperthermia 2023; 40:2249274. [PMID: 37751897 DOI: 10.1080/02656736.2023.2249274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the factors affecting the efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) for adenomyosis with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB-A). METHODS Baseline data of patients with AUB-A who underwent US-guided PMWA treatment between October 2020 and October 2021, including demography characteristics, laboratory and imaging examination results were retrospectively analyzed. 3D reconstruction of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was applied to quantitatively assess the local treatment responses, including ratio of non-perfusion volume to adenomyosis volume (NPVr), ablation rate of the endometrial-myometrial junction (EMJ), and surface area (SA) of the ablated part of the EMJ. Patients were followed up at 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment, and divided into two groups: group with complete relief (CR), and group with partial relief (PR) or no relief (NR). Data were compared between them. RESULTS Thirty-one patients were analyzed with a mean age of 38.7 ± 6.8 years (range: 24-48): 48.4% (15/31), 63.3% (19/30), and 65.5% (19/29) achieved CR at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. In univariate analysis, compared with the PR/NR group, serum CA125 levels were significantly lower in CR group at 3 months, while ablation rates of EMJ and SA of the ablated part of the EMJ were significantly higher at the three time points. Other baseline characteristics and NPVr did not differ between the two groups. CONCLUSION Baseline CA125 and ablation rate of the EMJ and SA of the ablated part of the EMJ are associated with the outcome of AUB-A patients after US-guided PMWA treatment.

Efficacy of Transabdominal Ultrasound-guided Percutaneous Microwave Ablation in the Treatment of Symptomatic Adenomyosis: A Retrospective Cohort Study. J Minim Invasive Gynecol 2023; 30:137-146. [PMID: 36384213 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmig.2022.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2022] [Revised: 11/06/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of transabdominal ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) in the treatment of symptomatic focal and nonfocal adenomyosis. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Longyan First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. PATIENTS From May 2019 to October 2021, 107 patients with symptomatic adenomyosis who refused hysterectomy received PMWA. INTERVENTIONS Patients were divided into a focal group (n = 47, including 40 focal adenomyosis and 7 adenomyoma cases) and a nonfocal group (n = 60, including 36 diffuse and 24 mixed adenomyosis cases) according to the extent of lesion involvement. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We collected and analyzed preoperative baseline data on patient characteristics; postoperative efficacy measures at 3, 6, and 12 months; and intraoperative and postoperative complications. There was a significant post-treatment reduction in the uterine corpus volume and cancer antigen 125 levels, an increase in hemoglobin levels, and an improvement in the Uterine Fibroid Symptom and Health-related Quality of Life scores (consisting of the Symptom Severity Scale and the Health-related Quality of Life scale), dysmenorrhea visual analog scale, and menstrual volume score (MVS) (all p <.05). One patient had recurrence. Most adverse events (72.0%) were mild. Although the nonfocal group had significantly greater anemia severity, higher Symptom Severity Scale and MVS, lower Health-related Quality of Life scale, greater extent and severity of myometrial involvement, and larger uterine corpus volume, after treatment, the uterine corpus volume, uterine corpus reduction rate, cancer antigen 125 levels, hemoglobin levels, Uterine Fibroid Symptom and Health-related Quality of Life score, dysmenorrhea visual analog scale, MVS score, and clinical response rate were similar between the groups (p >.05). CONCLUSION PMWA had good, similar, short-term efficacy for symptomatic focal and nonfocal adenomyosis.
