SUR 122 OBSTETRICAL & GYNECOLOGICAL SURGERY
OB-GYN Surgery • Female • From beginning of menses
OB-GYN Specialists • Obstetricians: pregnancy • Gynecologists: Breast Surgery (non-reconstructive) Bladder Tac related Surgeries: pubovaginal Sling, TVT (tension vaginal tape, A & P Repair, etc.) • Can be both or one or the other • Fertility Specialists • Oncology Gynecologist
Obstetrical & Gynecological Surgery • Reasons For: • Diagnose abnormalities • Treat abnormalities • Pain relief • Prevention of pregnancy • Aide in conception for infertile couples • Prevention of spontaneous abortion • Cesarian delivery (abdominal) when vaginal delivery not possible
The Female Reproductive System • Anatomy & Physiology • Pathology • Diagnostic & Pre-operative Testing • Anesthesia & Medications • Basic Supplies, Instrumentation, & Equipment • Positioning, Prep, & Draping • Dressings, Drains, & Post-operative Care
Pelvis • Pelvic girdle • Ilea • Ischia • Pubic bones • Vertebral column • Sacrum
Anatomy & Physiology • External Female Genitalia (Vulva) • Mons pubis • Labia majora • Labia minora • Urethral orifice • Vaginal orifice • Clitoris • Hymen • Perineum • Anus
External genitalia • Labia minora form the clitoris and contain sebaceous glands • Vestibule is the cavity between the labia minora • Contains urethral meatus and Bartholin’s (vestibular) glands • Perineum is the area between vaginal opening and anus • Can stretch with delivery however is frequently cut with an incision called episiotomy to prevent spontaneous tears during vaginal delivery
Vagina External Cervical Os Cervix Uterus Layers of: peritoneum myometrium endometrium Parts of: Body Fundus Adnexa Fallopian Tubes Ovaries Supporting Structures Internal Structures
Vagina • Receptacle to penis • Passageway for menstrual flow • Lower portion is the birth canal
Uterus • Function: • Site of menstruation • Or • Site of implantationif implantation occurs then is the site of fetal development
Uterus • Parts of: • Dome shaped portion=fundus • Central portion=body • Where narrows=cervix • Internal cervical os=where uterus and cervix meet • External os=where cervix meets vagina
Lining of: Perimetrium=outside of uterus covered in a this serous membrane lining Myometrium= -smooth muscle lining -middle layer -fetal support -during labor expels fetus with assistance of hormone oxytocin 3. Endometrium=inner lining2 parts: stratum basalis permanent layerthin Stratum functionalis -produced by s. basalis -temporary layer -shed w/menstruation -produces maternal portion of placenta Uterus
Uterus • Blood supply: • Uterine artery and uterine vein
Ovaries • Function: • Production and expulsion of oocytes (ova or eggs) • Release of hormones: estrogen and progesterone • Are both endocrine and exocrine glands • Exocrine produce eggs (ducts=fallopian tubes) • Endocrine portion produces estrogen and progesterone
Ovaries • Attachments: • Broad ligament -largest formed by a fold of peritoneum -contains fallopian tube, round and ovarian ligaments, blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves • Suspensory ligament • Ovarian ligament
Ovaries • Suspensory ligament -small peritoneum fold -holds ovaries at upper end -contains blood vessels and nerves • Ovarian ligament -attaches ovaries at their lower end -is actually a thickening in the broad ligament
Fallopian tubes • Egg is caught by finger-like projections called the fimbrae after it is released from the ovary • Funnel shaped end prior to fimbrae=infundibulum
Fallopian tubes • 2 layers: 1.Mucous membrane innermost • Is lined with ciliated columnar epithelial tissue • Allows for movement of the egg • Scarring from STDs can damage or scar this lining rendering a female sterile
Fallopian tubes 2. Muscularis • Smooth muscle • Peristalsis or movement of the egg • So… • Egg movement through the fallopian tubes occurs by cilia and peristalsis • Fertilization must occur in the distal 1/3 of the fallopian tubes for successful implantation into the uterus
Physiology • Ovarian cycle caused by anterior pituitary gland which secretes: • LH “ovulation hormone” • FSH levels must be low to allow ovulation • Causes secretion of estrogen • Menses is caused by a sudden decrease in estrogen and progesterone triggered by no fertilization
Hormones 1. FSH • Produced in anterior lobe pituitary • Causes graafian follicular development • Causes estrogen secretion
Hormones • LH • Produced in anterior lobe pituitary • Continues follicular development • Stimulates estrogen and progesterone production • Causes ovulation
Hormones • Estrogen • Maintenance and development of reproductive organs and female sex characteristics
Hormones • Progesterone • Primary cause of endometrial changes • With Prolactin (hormone) influences mammary glands to develop and secrete milk • Milk secretion and labor is stimulated by oxytocin (hormone)
Physiology • In the ovary > the big 4 hormones are increasing which develops a follicle • Follicle becomes a graafian follicle • Graafian follicle rupture>egg released into fallopian tubes • Outer rind of graafian follicle becomes corpus luteum
Physiology • 2 possibilities: • No fertilization=corpus luteum degenerates and becomes corpus albicans and cycle starts over • Fertilization=corpus luteum maintained four months to suppress egg production and menstruation with estrogen and progesterone • Progesterone levels must be high enough to maintain endometrial lining to sustain pregnancy • Corpus luteum acts as a temporary endocrine gland • After four months placenta is developed and takes over
Pregnancy (Obstetrics) Procedures • Cerlage (MacDonald or Shirodkar) • Deliveries: • Vaginal • Cesarian sections (C-sections) • Tubal ligations (sterilization procedures) • Emergent hysterectomy
Pregnancy Terminology • Labor • Four stages of: • True labor onset • Cervical dilation complete>birth • Birth>placental delivery • Placental delivery > stabilization of mother • Primapara • 6-18 hours • ½ - 3 hours (dilation 1 cm/hr) • 0-30 min • 6 hours • Multipara • 2-10 hours • 5-30 min (dilation 1.2cm/hr) • 0-30 min • 6 hours
Pregnancy Terminology • Braxton Hicks - “false labor” • Bloody show – onset of labor • Cervical dilation - cervical measurement (0 to 8cm) • Cervical Effacement – thinning of cervix • Crowning - neonate head circumference at its largest point as it passes thru vulvar ring
Pregnancy Terminology • Descent – movement of fetus thru pelvis with contractions • Expulsion – delivery of infant • Gravida - how many times a woman has been pregnant • Parity – number of time a woman has given birth • Position – relationship between presenting infant part & pelvis of mother (OA) most common • Presentation – fetal part overlying pelvic inlet • Station – measurement of the descent of the infant’s presenting part thru the ischial spines
Presentation • Breech - buttocks first • Transverse – crosswise • Footling – feet • Vertex – upper back of head
Obstetrical Complications • Placenta previa – placental implantation over cervix • Abruptio Placenta – premature placental separation
Obstetrical Complications • Abortions • Missed • Incomplete • Imminent • Spontaneous • Voluntary

Patient symptoms: • Abnormal bleeding • Abdominal pain • Absence of menses (amenorrhea) • Excessive menses (menorrhagia) • Painful menses (dysmenorrhea) • Painful intercourse (dysparunia) • Painful defication (dyschezia)
Pre-Operative & Testing Diagnostic • Physical exam • UA, CBC, Blood Chemistry • Pelvic exam • Bi-manual exam • Colposcopy • PAP (papanicolaou smear) • Schiller Test • Biopsy • Ultrasound • MRI • X-ray • Laparoscopy • D & C
Anesthesia • General • Spinal • MAC with IV Sedation
Medications • Oxytocics: • Stimulate uterine contraction to induce labor • Post-delivery of baby and placental contents to induce uterine contraction allowing for expulsion of excess tissue and clots • Post-delivery to prevent bleeding/hemorrhage
Medications • Lugol’s solution • Iodine based • Identification of abnormal vaginal and or cervical tissue • Tissue that is abnormal will not stain • Tissue that is normal will stain brown • Schiller’s Test
Medications • 3% Acetic Acid • Facilitates cervical visualization by removing cervical mucous • Used during a colposcopy • Methylene blue • Dye • Diluted with NS • Direct > Checks for tubal patency (chromotubation) • IV > excreted by the kidneys into the urine rules out ureteral injury as abdominal procedure concludes
Medications • Antimicrobials • Prophylactic • IV • ung (ointment) utilized with vaginal packing materials
Medications • Hysteroscopy solutions (for uterine distention) • Dextrose 5% (D5W) • Dextran 70% in dextrose • Glycine • Sorbitol • Above may all be used with laser or cautery • Hyskon (rarely used anymore due to ↑ laser use) • No cautery or lasers may be used as would cause systemic absorption>systemic side effects
