OBJECTIVES: Vitamin D plays an essential role in neonatal skeletal development and maternal weight gain during pregnancy. We aim to study the association between vitamin D status, maternal weight, and materno-neonatal bone metabolism parameters. METHODS: From January to June 2017, we conducted this cross-sectional study among 103 pregnant women (21-42 years old) and their singletons. The levels of serum 25-(OH)D, PTH, P1NP, OC, and CTX were measured for mothers and neonates (cord blood)...

Hyperreactio luteinalis is a benign, pregnancy-related condition with cystic enlargement of the ovaries and elevated androgen. However, only one-third of patients manifest as maternal virilisation and rarely does it cause fetal virilisation. Here, we report a virilised baby girl born to a virilised mother because of hyperreactio luteinalis. This case illustrates our management to maternal and fetal virilisation.

In this study, we explore the "why?", and "how?", monitoring the pH of the fetal scalp is used, and show its limitations. In addition, we review the development of new devices based on the modern physics and nanomaterials serving this topic. Most of the works we found in our search have focused on improving the prognostic of fetal heart rate monitoring, because it is the "golden standard" in determining fetal distress. Although the best-known screening method, it can only provide limited information about the actual status of the fetus...

Uterine necrosis is an infrequent event and is most commonly reported as a complication of interventions for postpartum haemorrhage management. Cases of uterine necrosis in pregnancy are rare. The mainstay of treatment for uterine necrosis is hysterectomy, and the data regarding conservative management are limited. A gravida 3, para 2 presented at 33 weeks gestation with ovarian torsion and underwent an exploratory laparotomy with ovarian cystectomy. The surgery was complicated by excess bleeding, which was controlled with the placement of sutures along the uterine body...

BACKGROUND: Chagas disease (CD) or American trypanosomiasis is a neglected anthropozoonosis caused by Trypanosoma cruzi that affects 6-8 million people worldwide (mainly in Latin America), 30-40% of whom develop cardiac or digestive complications. Once confined to endemic areas of Latin America, CD has more recently become a global disease as a result of migration flows from endemic to non-endemic regions, particularly in northern America and Europe. Congenital transmission is a particular challenge as it may be sustained for multiple generations and perpetuate the infection even in non-endemic countries...

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) represents a stage of subclinical inflammation and a risk factor for subsequent future type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease development. Leptin has been related with vascular and metabolic changes in GDM with heterogeneous and contradictory results with respect to their possible involvement in maternal, perinatal, and future complications. Our objective is to evaluate current evidence on the role of leptin in maternal and perinatal complications in women with GDM. PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus databases were searched...

Aims: Dengue fever is a major health problem with high morbidity and mortality especially during epidemic season; pregnant females being no exception. But, there is paucity of published data on dengue fever during pregnancy. Hence, this study was planned to study the clinical profile, maternal outcome and predictors of poor outcome in pregnant dengue patients. Materials and Methods: All pregnant females attending labour room of Tata Main Hospital, Jamshedpur from April 2016 to October2020 with acute febrile illness caused by dengue virus at any gestational age were included in the study...

The case presented here shows the rare diagnosis of fetal otocephaly with lethal prognosis due to impossible airway management after birth. Otocephaly is characterised by fetal agnathia, microstomia and synotia. As in our case, otocephaly is usually not recognised until the third trimester and leads to challenging clinical situations and decision making.A woman in her 30s presented to our tertiary hospital at 27 weeks of gestation because of an unexplained polyhydramnios. 3D imaging illustrated the complex syndrome of otocephaly and helped understand the present disease patterns...

Triploidy is a common chromosomal abnormality that usually results in spontaneous abortion. Liveborn infants usually die within hours or days of birth. We present the case of a female infant born at 30 weeks and 5 days of gestation who received a late postnatal diagnosis of complete triploidy. She had severe intrauterine growth restriction and postnatal findings of multiple facial and limb anomalies. Genetic testing was sent shortly after birth, and the baby had an uneventful neonatal admission, requiring low-level respiratory and feeding support...

Nuchal cord accidents comprise a third of stillbirths in the third trimester. These are often due to higher order nuchal cords, with more than three loops. In this report, we discuss a case of a gestation complicated by a nuchal cord with eight loops and severe fetal growth restriction, requiring expedited delivery due to non-reassuring fetal heart tones. Our case demonstrates the value of high-quality ultrasound in detecting complex nuchal cords, as well as highlighting the potentially dynamic and unstable fetal status in an affected gestation...

Background Placenta abruptio (PA) remains a serious materno-fetal complication. According to progress realized in maternal-fetal medicine, we aimed to evaluate the diagnosis and management of PA and neonatal outcomes. Methods We conducted a retrospective study that involved all the patients that were diagnosed with PA in a tertiary maternity hospital between 2006 and 2013. Data were analyzed to determine mean and standard deviation and statistically analyzed using the Chi-square test. Results In total, 201 patients were diagnosed with PA out of 35184 deliveries (0...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

There are few case reports of hemolytic disease in fetuses and newborns (HDFN) caused by alloantibodies against the MNS blood group system. The reason for this dearth is that antibodies toward these antigens are usually IgM, which not only cannot cross the placental circulation but also react at temperatures below 37°C. They are, therefore, of minimal clinical importance. Nevertheless, cases have been reported in which the presence of anti-M IgG antibodies caused severe HDFN and even intrauterine death in the presence of maternal-fetal MNS incompatibility indicating that they could have a high clinical impact...

The most common cause of congenital heart block (CHB) is neonatal lupus, an acquired autoimmune disease caused by transplacental transfer of maternal antibodies to the fetus. A full-term female neonate was admitted to neonatal intensive care unit for severe bradycardia with stable haemodynamics. The mother, showing no clinical symptoms or any particular history, was transferred to our tertiary centre for profound fetal bradycardia. At birth, the infant's ECG showed a third-degree atrioventricular block and echocardiography was normal...

Summmary : In Belgium, as in most developed countries, routine antenatal screening for cytomegalovirus (CMV) remains controversial and is not recommended. However, 1-2 % of seronegative pregnant women will develop a primary infection during pregnancy and, with a prevalence of 0.7 % of live births, CMV is the leading cause of congenital infection. Among infected newborns, 20 to 25 % will develop auditory or neurological sequelae. The initial objective of our study was to evaluate, from a cohort of 48 patients followed in the antenatal diagnosis Unit of the University Hospital of Liège, the rates of maternal-fetal transmission, medical termination of pregnancy and rates of sequelae in infected newborns and to compare them with findings found in the literature...

A 22-year-old pregnant woman was referred to our fetal medicine unit due to severe fetal growth restriction at 26 weeks of gestation. An extensive detailed ultrasound revealed signs of bilateral periventricular hyperechogenicity, suggesting fetal infection potentially due to cytomegalovirus (CMV). Doppler ultrasound showed a high peak systolic velocity in the middle cerebral artery. Percutaneous umbilical cord blood sampling confirmed fetal CMV infection and severe fetal anaemia. We present this case to highlight the importance of fetal anaemia, which can be fatal regardless of whether it is associated with generalised oedema or hydrops fetalis...
