Intrauterine extremity gangrene in combination with cerebral infarction is a serious and rare event. We present a case with a healthy mother who gave birth to a child with this condition. At term, the mother presented at the antenatal clinic with decreased fetal movements. Cardiotocography (CTG)
OBJECTIVE
To define neonatal pial middle cerebral artery infarction.
METHODS
A retrospective study was made of neonates in whom focal arterial infarction had been detected ultrasonographically. A detailed study was made of cortical middle cerebral artery infarction subtypes.
RESULTS
Forty
Little is known about the effect of inhalation of methanol and other solvents on the pregnancy and the growth of the fetus. We report a preterm male infant who developed cerebral infarcts in utero, leading to large areas of bilateral frontal cortical leukomalacia following chronic maternal
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) during pregnancy carries significant risk of intrauterine fetal demise, but little is known about its postnatal sequelae in surviving neonates. We report here the case of an infant who was born to a mother with White's class C diabetes mellitus during an episode of DKA.
Introduction. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in a pregnant woman is rare. When occurring, AMI is a major cause of maternal and neonatal death. By presenting the following case we describe the dilemma concerning the timing of delivery. Case. A 36-year-old, multiparous women, at 35 6/7 weeks of
OBJECTIVE
To determine whether clinical presentations and risk factor profiles differ between periventricular venous infarction (PVI) and arterial presumed perinatal ischemic stroke (APPIS).
METHODS
Retrospective cohort study.
METHODS
A total of 59 children with presumed perinatal ischemic stroke
OBJECTIVE
To determine the relationships among the pregnancy outcomes of growth-retarded fetuses, Doppler flow velocimetry of the fetomaternal circulation, and pathologic changes in the placenta.
METHODS
Forty-seven fetuses confirmed to be growth-retarded by ultrasonographic biometry were monitored
The use of transabdominal vibroacoustic stimulation has been shown to improve the efficiency of antepartum fetal surveillance. The ability of the fetus to habituate to such a stimulus has also been suggested as a means of assessing the function of the central nervous system. The purpose of this
Systolic/diastolic ratios of umbilical velocimetry have been used to assess downstream placental vascular resistance. Reverse end-diastolic flow velocity during end diastole suggests extreme abnormality in waveform and resistance. We reviewed our experience of patients showing reverse end-diastolic
BACKGROUND Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is the most common etiology of pregnancy-associated myocardial infarction. It is characterized by high rates of maternal morbidity and mortality and may cause fetal complications and death as well. CASE REPORT A 44-year-old female (G2P1) suffered
The patient was born by emergency cesarean section for fetal distress at 35 weeks gestation with a weight of 2740 g. The early neonatal course was complicated by transient tachypnea and renal failure. He was receiving oxygen and diureticus in incubator for 5 days and his condition was very improved
OBJECTIVE
We evaluated the extent to which histologic lesions bearing a diagnosis of abruption conform to a diagnosis based on established clinical criteria. We further examined the profile of chronic and acute histologic lesions associated with clinical abruption.
METHODS
Data from the New
The relation between antepartum fetal heart rate (FHR) non stress test (NST), maternal serum estriol, intrapartum FHR change, birth weight, placental findings and Apgar score were studied in 168 normal gestations and 36 high-risk pregnancies including 25 EPH-gestosis cases. The frequency of
Antiphospholipid antibodies are associated with intrauterine fetal growth retardation and fetal distress leading to premature birth or fetal death. These complications are caused by uteroplacental insufficiency that is the result of multiple placental thromboses, infarcts, and spiral artery
Inherited or acquired protein C (PC) deficiency leads to thromboembolic events. Plasma PC activity in infancy is physiologically lower than in adults. We describe a case of neonatal asphyxia and acute renal failure associated with isolated PC deficiency. A full-term male infant was born to a healthy
