Ectopia cordis is a rare and impressive malformation presenting as an isolated lesion or as part of the Cantrell's pentology syndrom. It is defined as an anomaly in which the fetal heart lies outside the thoracic cavity. The aim of the study is to report the prenatal diagnostic features and management of ectopia cordis. We report a prenatal diagnosis case of ectopia cordis using two-dimensional ultrasound at 19 weeks of gestation. Multiple congenital anomalies were found. The most important one was the presence of a ventral thoraco-abdominal wall defect with exstrophy of the heart, liver, stomach and intestines. Histopathological examination confirmed the ultrasound findings. Due to severity of the malformations, termination of pregnancy was made

In this indication, the sulprostone [Nalador] is a big contribution. The purpose of our study is to review this product, to describe our experience concerning its use in the therapeutic interruptions of pregnancies and to study alternatives in case of failure or of against indication in its use. It is about a forward-looking study opened from the 01-07-02 led in the service [A] of the CMNT. We brought together 30 women where a therapeutic interruption of the pregnancy was put and who did'nt present of against indications to the sulprostone. The average age was of 27 years with extremes from 18 to 39 years50% of our patients were nullipares. The terms of pregnancy varied from 16 to 28 LIMITED COMPANIES with an average of 20 LIMITED COMPANIES. The indications of these terminations of pregnancy were maternal in 33.33% of cases and foetal in 66.66% of cases. The average number of light bulbs of Nalador used by the women was of 2,25 with extremes going from 1 to 4. The delay of eviction from the beginning of the induction was on average of 21 hours, with a rate of success of 90%. We did not regret any break uterine Delivery was incomplete requiring a uterine revision under general anesthetic in 5 cases. Tolerance was good in general In case of failure alternatives were: the misoprostol [cytotec], the Probe extra amniotic dries and the wet Probe. The sulprostone by intravenous way constitutes an effective method of medical interruption of the pregnancy in the 2-nd and 3-rd quarter with a satisfactory tolerance and a rate of success of 90%
