Read the joint ISUOG/ESGO Consensus Statement on ultrasound-guided biopsy in gynecological oncology aiming to assist clinicians, including gynecological sonographers, gynecological oncologists and radiologists, to achieve the best standards of practice in ultrasound-guided biopsy procedures. This Consensus Statement is supplemented by detailed narrated videoclips presenting different approaches and indications for ultrasound-guided biopsy as well as a patient leaflet.

Dysgerminomas are malignant ovarian germ-cell tumors. Malignant germ-cell tumors of the ovary occur in young women, 75% being diagnosed in the second and third decades of life.

The December issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review on the management and outcome of fetal abdominal cyst in the first trimester, a Danish cohort study on the validation of Fetal Medicine Foundation charts for fetal growth in twin pregnancies, a study comparing biparietal diameter vs crown–rump length for late first-trimester pregnancy dating and a pilot study evaluating the use of the two-step International Ovarian Tumor Analysis group strategy for classifying adnexal masses identified in pregnancy.

The November issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review on the postnatal outcome of fetal cortical malformations, an intermanufacturer assessment on the predictive performance of angiogenic ratio vs glycosylated fibronectin for pre-eclampsia, a Delphi consensus study with a core outcome set on the management of fetal lower urinary tract obstruction and a study characterizing the appearance of uterine perivascular epithelioid cell tumors on ultrasound using standardized terminology.

The September issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review on maternal prepregnancy weight as an independent risk factor for congenital heart defect, a prospective study of cardiovascular adaptation in women with previous pregnancy complicated by a hypertensive disorder, an analysis of the discriminative performance of the ADNEX model and IOTA two-step strategy for adnexal masses in a low-risk population and a study assessing postnatal outcome following fetal aortic valvuloplasty for critical aortic stenosis.

The August issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review on the role of ultrasound in the detection of lymph-node metastasis in gynecological cancer, a study on the influence of ethnicity and socioeconomic deprivation on adverse pregnancy outcomes, a prospective analysis of the screening performance of increased nuchal translucency before 11 weeks’ gestation for adverse pregnancy outcome and a study investigating the need for individualization of levator–urethra gap measurement for diagnosis of levator avulsion.

The December issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review collating the current evidence on prenatal diagnosis and perinatal outcome of congenital knee dislocation, a multicenter study proposing a new model for prediction of adverse outcome in extremely preterm growth-restricted fetuses requiring early delivery, a large regional study evaluating the role of SARS-CoV-2 infection as a cause of fetal death, a study assessing the impact of choroid plexus size in cases with an abnormal closure of the fourth ventricle, and a prospective study demonstrating the potential of photoacoustic imaging in improving O-RADS risk assessment of adnexal lesions. Also in the issue, we celebrate the award winners announced at the 33rd World Congress on Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology and thank all contributors to the Journal’s peer-review process in 2023.

The November issue of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology includes a systematic review evaluating the incidence of urological complications in women undergoing Cesarean section for placenta accreta spectrum disorders, a study proposing a new marker to facilitate identification of fetuses with agenesis of the corpus callosum, and two studies providing evidence of an association between epidural analgesia and increased risk of emergency delivery for fetal compromise. The potentially significant impact of the findings of the latter two studies are countered in an accompanying Editorial by Cavoretto and colleagues and in a series of Correspondence articles.
