Fetal Urogenital Sinus with Consecutive Hydrometrocolpos because of Labial Fusion: Prenatal Diagnostic Difficulties and Postpartal Therapeutic Manage…

2006

<i>Objective:</i> To elucidate the differential diagnoses of tumorous dilations in the fetal pelvic region detected by prenatal ultrasound and the postnatal management demonstrated on a fetus with 29 weeks of gestation with a retrovesical located bottle-like cystic structure measuring 54 × 31 × 27 mm within the pelvis. Postnatal findings were a labial fusion and a consecutive hydrometrocolpos due to a urethrovaginal fistula. <i>Method:</i> Case report of a fetus affected by an intricate cloacal anomaly. <i>Results:</i> The long-term prognosis for this nonsyndromic form of hydrometrocolpos without any other structural defects or organic failures after oper…

Sonographic Prognostic Factors in Prenatal Diagnosis of SCT

2003

<i>Objective:</i> A subset of fetuses with sacrococcygeal teratomas (SCT) develops hydrops caused by high-output heart failure. Identification of fetuses at risk for hydrops is important because surgical intervention may reverse the pathophysiology of the disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate sonographic prognostic factors regarding tumor morphology and vascularity associated with the development of hydrops in utero. <i>Methods:</i> Over a 10-year period, we identified 7 fetuses with SCT diagnosed antenatally and managed at the University of Mainz. We retrospectively reviewed the charts of mothers and infants and recorded data on prenatal diagnosis, tumor si…

Pregnancy Outcome in Maternal Crigler-Najjar Syndrome Type II: A Case Report and Systematic Review of the Literature

2008

<i>Objective:</i> To report a case of maternal Crigler-Najjar syndrome (CNS) type II in pregnancy, systematically review the literature for similar case reports, and to evaluate whether pregnancy is safe in patients with the disease. Data sources included the PubMed and uptodate databases. <i>Results:</i> A 37-year-old mother with CNS type II was treated with phenobarbital during her pregnancy and her bilirubin levels were monitored. Her newborn had mild direct hyperbilirubinemia, did not require any treatment and his postnatal follow-up showed normal growth and development as well as normal hearing. <i>Conclusion:</i> CNS type II is rare, and only a few …
