ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: To determine the effect of clomiphene/hMG combined superovulation with intrauterine insemination on pregnancy outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty-one cycles of clomiphene/hMG combined superovulation with intrauterine insemination in forty-three infertile couples were analysed retrospectively. RESULTS: The overall pregnancy rate was 39.5% per patient and 20.9% per cycle. Each pregnancy rate of infertility due to ovulatory dysfunction, unexplained infertility and endometriosis was 43.8%, 40.0%, and 25.0% per patient respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Clomiphene/hMG superovulation with intrauterine insemination is a simple, cost effective and safe treatment modality in the management of infertility, and may improve a pregnancy rate.

Hypertensive encephalpathy is defined as severe hypertension in association with headache, nausea and vomiting, visual disturbances, confusion, stupor and coma. The pathophysiological mechanism is incompletely understood and causing as a result of failure of the upper limit of cerebral vascular autoregulation. Magnetic resonance imaging shows a characteristics posterior leukoencephalopathy, predominantly affects the white matter of the parietal and occipital lobes. Hypertensive encephalopathy are potentially reversible with timely and appropriate treatment. We experienced a case of hypertensive encephalopathy after normal vaginal delivery and report this case with a brief review of the literatures.

Holoprosencephaly is a rare and complex malformation affecting the cleavage of the developing forebrain and is usually associated with defects of the mid Face. We have experienced a case of holoprosencephaly, diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound examination at 31 weeks of pregnancy in a 31-year-old primigravida woman. This case is characterized by holoprosencephaly, cleft palate, cleft lip, left renal aplasia and right renal hypertrophy. The chromosomal study showed a deletion of the long arm of chromosome 7, 46, XX, del(7)(q32), We report with a terminal deletion of chromosome 7q associated with atypical clinical picture and holoprosencephaly.
