ABSTRACT

Leiomyoma is the most common benign uterine tumor, but acute torsion of myoma is extremely rare. We experienced two patients admitted to our hospital for acute abdominal pain, who diagnosed with torsion of subserosal myoma. Although ultrasonogram revealed a subserosal myoma in both cases, it could not confirm torsion of uterine fibroid. Laparoscopic surgery confirmed the diagnosis of acute torsion of myoma and resected the lesion successfully.

ABSTRACT

Patau syndrome is trisomy 13, one of the most common autosomal aberration associated with multiple congenital anomalies. Because trisomy 13 is generally associated with severe congenital anomalies and postpartum poor prognosis, antenatal diagnosis through antenatal ultra-sonogram and triple screening marker is very important. We present one case of trisomy 13 with abnormal ultrasound finding, holoprosencephaly, microcephaly, cleft lip and palate. And confirmed chromosomally with pregnancy termination.

ABSTRACT

Cervical incompetence is one of the main contributors to repeated pregnancy loss and preterm delivery. Typically it results in progressive cervical dilatation, leading to a painless second or early third trimester abortion. Emergency cerclage can be used in the setting of advanced cervical incompetence, even when fetal membranes bulge through the dilated cervix. To facilitate the procedure, various techniques have been developed to replace the fetal membranes into the uterine cavity. We performed six successful cases of emergency cerclage combined with amnioreduction in advanced incompetent internal os of cervix (IIOC). Interval from emergency cerclage to delivery was 8.1 +/- 2.4 weeks (range 4-10 weeks) and we delivered viable fetuses in all but one. Hereby we report our experiences with a brief review of literature.

ABSTRACT

Extrapelvic endometriosis is a fairly rare phenomenon. The majority of extrapelvic endometriosis involves scar tissue following obstetric or gynecologic procedures. Abdominal wall endometriosis secondary to cesarean section is a very rare condition, being reported in less than 0.5% of patients undergoing cesarean section. It has a distinct presentation and treatment. An abdominal mass with noncyclical symptoms is a common presentation. Imaging techniques are nonspecific and needle biopsy may confirm the diagnosis. Wide excision is the treatment of choice for abdominal wall endometriosis as well as for recurrent lesions. A patient with a history of cesarean section presented with a painful, enlarging mass. The pain was cyclic and aggravated just prior to menstruation. The patient was treated with surgical scar excision pathologically confirmed as endometriosis. We present this case with a brief review of literature.

ABSTRACT

Although tubal pregnancy is increasing, primary ovarian ectopic pregnancy has remained a rare event. However, recent reports suggest an increasing incidence to both tubal and term pregnancies. Ovarian pregnancy occurs within the ovary and on the corpus luteum. Earlier diagnosis is now possible, owing to the availability of highly specific radioimmunoassay for human chorionic gonadotrophin and the development of transvaginal ultrasonography. Clinical and even intraoperative diagnosis is difficult and confirmation may be made only by microscopic examination of the tissue specimen. Current understanding of the etiological factors, classification, possible pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnostic steps, reevaluation of diagnostic criteria, preferred management and future fertility are detailed. The therapy is surgical and currently more conservative than in the past, because of improvement in operative laparoscopy. We report a case of primary ovarian pregnancy treated conservatively under laparoscopic surgery with a brief review of literature.

ABSTRACT

Sirenomelia, characterised by a complete or incomplete fusion of the lower extremities, is a severe form of caudal defect affecting 1 in 60,000 births. Most cases of sirenomelia die within 5days after birth and are associated with abnormalities such as renal agenesis, urinary tract agenesis, single umbilical artery, etc. Thirdtrimester ultrasonographic diagnosis is usually impaired by severe oligohydramnios whereas the amount of amniotic fluid may be efficient to allow diagnosis in the late first trimester. We report of a case of sirenomelia at 14 weeks of gestation using prenatal transvaginal and transabdominal ultrasonography.

ABSTRACT

Cervical pregnancy is a rare form of ectopic gestation in which the blastocyst implants in the cervical mucosa below the histologic cervical os. Because of the serious vaginal bleeding, hysterectomy was usually done in the management of cervical pregnancy. Howerver, conservative treatment is desirable for women who want to be pregnancy in the future. Methotrexate has been utilized recently for conservative management of cervical pregnancy. We report a case of cervical pregnancy which was treated succesfully with intramuscular methotrexate injection.
