Abstract
OBJECTIVE Immersion in water during labor could reduce pain and use of epidural anesthesia during childbirth. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of immersion in water during labor on the use of epidural anesthesia in a midwife care setting. METHODS We conducted a single-center retrospective study of all women who gave birth in the physiological ward of Saint-Étienne University Hospital between October 2020 and December 2022. RESULTS The study did not find difference between immersion group and control group concerning the use of epidural anesthesia (P=0.49). The immersion group counted more women with a duration of labor greater than 6hours than in the control group. The multivariate analysis adjusted for parity and duration of labor did not find difference between both groups [OR 0.58; 95% CI (0.30; 1.09)]. CONCLUSION Even if it does not seem to modify the use of epidurals, immersion in water does not seem to increase maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. It represents a therapeutic alternative with reasonable cost to offer for pregnant women who wish to give birth without epidural anesthesia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pain assessment of patients requesting a medical abortion according to the term, up to 14 weeks, by a numerical rating scale (NRS). METHODS This was a single-centre prospective observational study conducted at the University Hospitals of Strasbourg from 1st October 2019 to 31st December 2020. RESULTS There was no significant difference in pain assessed by the NRS for medical abortion performed between 7-9 weeks and those performed between 9-14 weeks (6.5±2.5 vs. 6.6±2.2, P=0.85). Regardless of the term (before 7 weeks, between 7-9 weeks and between 9-14 weeks), patients felt relieved by taking painkillers in the case of medical abortion in 88.9%, 80.3% and 87.3% of cases respectively (P=0.18). The use of analgesics allowed a decrease of 3 points of the NRS in the 3 groups (P=0.67). Patients were more painful in case of medical protocol vs. surgical (maximum pain at 6.0±2.6 vs. 1.4±2.0, P<0.01), but declared to be relieved by analgesics in 85.1 and 94.3% of cases (P=0.24). CONCLUSIONS As pain is similar whatever the term in the case of medical abortion, and its management by analgesics seems to be effective, this criterion should not guide the professional in the choice of method, particularly between 9 and 14 weeks. This choice must be made by the patient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clean self-intermittent catheterization (CIC) is the gold standard of the therapeutic approach of chronic urinary retention. Usually, CIC are safe, effective but in some cases catheterization can determine urethral pain during catheter insertion or withdrawal leading to poor adherence and compliance. To determine prevalence of pain during CIC and verify its impact on adherence to treatment. METHOD Retrospective study with evaluation of pain during CIC one month following CIC teaching session by means specific and validated questionnaires: ICDQ (Intermittent Catheterization Difficulties Questionnaire), InCasaq (Intermittent Catheterization Satisfaction Questionnaire), I-CAS (Intermittent Catheterization Adherence Scale). RESULTS Seventy-seven patients were recruited and 28 (36%) described pain during CIC. There is a strong relationship between pain and poor adherence (P<0.01). Female patients had a higher risk of urethral pain during CIC and in contrary BMI>25kg/m2 seems to be a protective factor of pain. CONCLUSION In this series, urethral pain was associated with low compliance and adherence to CIC. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bone metastases cause pain and affect patients' quality of life. Radiation therapy is one of the reference analgesic treatments. The objective of this study was to compare the current practices of a French radiotherapy department for the treatment of uncomplicated bone metastases with data from the literature in order to improve and optimize the management of patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective monocentric study of patients who underwent palliative irradiation of uncomplicated bone metastases was performed. RESULTS Ninety-one patients had 116 treatments of uncomplicated bone metastases between January 2014 and December 2015, including 44 men (48%) and 47 women (52%) with an average age of 63years (25-88years). Primary tumours most commonly found were breast cancer (35%), lung cancer (16%) and prostate cancer (12%). The regimens used were in 29% of cases 30Gy in ten fractions (group 30Gy), in 21% of cases 20Gy in five fractions (group 20Gy), in 22% of cases 8Gy in one fraction (group 8Gy) and in 28% of cases 23.31Gy in three fractions of stereotactic body irradiation (stereotactic group). The general condition of the patient (P<0.001), pain score and analgesic (P<0.001), oligometastatic profile (P=0.003) and practitioner experience (P<0.001) were factors influencing the choice of the regimen irradiation. Age (P=0.46), sex (P=0.14), anticancer treatments (P=0.56), concomitant hospitalization (P=0.14) and the distance between the radiotherapy centre and home (P=0.87) did not influence the decision significantly. A total of three cases of spinal compression and one case of post-therapeutic fracture were observed, occurring between one and 128days and 577days after irradiation, respectively. Eight percent of all irradiated metastases were reirradiated with a delay ranging between 13 and 434days after the first irradiation. The re-irradiation rate was significantly higher after 8Gy (P=0.02). The rate of death was significantly lower in the stereotactic arm (P<0.001) and overall survival was significantly greater in the stereotactic arm (P<0.001). CONCLUSION This study showed that patients' analysed was comparable to the population of different studies. Predictive factors for the choice of the treatment regimen were identified. Non-fractionnated therapy was underutilised while stereotactic treatment was increasingly prescribed, showing an evolution in the management of patients.

Abstract
Deep endometriosis with colorectal involvement is considered one of the most severe forms of the disease due to its impact on patients' quality of life and fertility but also by the difficulties encountered by the clinicians when proposing a therapeutic strategy. Although the literature is very rich, evidence based medicine remains poor explaining the great heterogeneity concerning the management of such patients. Surgery therefore remains a therapeutic option. It improves the intensity of gynecological, digestive and general symptoms and the quality of life. Concerning the surgical approach, it appears that laparoscopy should be the first option; the laparoscopic robot-assisted route can also be proposed. The techniques of rectal shaving, discoid resection and segmental resection are the three techniques used for surgical excision of colorectal endometriosis. The parameters taken into account for the use of either technique are: the surgeon's experience, the depth of infiltration of the lesion within the rectosigmoid wall, the lesion size and circumference, multifocality and the distance of the lesion from the anal margin. In the case of deep endometriosis with colorectal involvement, performing an incomplete surgery increases the rate of pain recurrence and decreases postoperative fertility. In case of surgery for colorectal endometriosis, pregnancy rates are similar to those obtained after ART in non-operated patients. Existing data are insufficient to formally recommend first line surgery or ART in infertile patients with colorectal endometriosis. The surgery for colorectal endometriosis exposes to a risk of postoperative complications and recurrence of which the patients should be informed preoperatively.

Abstract
Early pain and persistent parietal disorders remains a major unresolved problem in thoracic surgery. Thoracotomy and the use of multiple ports in most Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) procedures are the major cause of this persistent pain. For the last decade, a few publications describing the use of either single incision VATS and cervical thoracic approaches have been reported without significant results in comparison with current used techniques. Intercostals compression during surgery and early after by intercostals chest tube placement, are probably the major cause of postoperative pain. Flexible endoscope is currently used in several surgeries and will take more and more importance in our daily use in thoracic surgery. Instrument flexibility allows its use through minimally invasive approaches and offers a very interesting intra-thoracic navigation. We describe here the first use in France of a flexible endoscope in thoracic surgery through a single cervical incision to perform simultaneous exploration and biopsies of the mediastinum and right pleura using the original approach of Cervical Incision Thoracic Endoscopic Surgery (CITES).

Abstract
The goal of this article is to propose some practical means of pain management in radiation departments. Pain management in radiation oncology is difficult because of the high proportion of painful patients, underestimation by medical teams, and limited therapeutic options. Pain can cause mobilization difficulties, set-up errors, treatment interruption. According to procedure steps, a preventive attitude (for pre-radiation consultation) or an active attitude (for treatment) to quickly relieve the patient can be planned. This work is a brain storming about pain management. It is not a review about analgesic radiotherapy. The practical situations apply to patients to whom radiotherapy is indicated. Teamwork and anticipation are keywords to relieve patients. All proposed means are not always available for different reasons (time, finance, staff, training). The idea is to establish simple procedures that are appropriate to each center to fluidify acts, to optimize time for a successful irradiation.
