OBJECTIVE
To report our experience with intracardiac potassium chloride (KCl) injection as a method of feticide for severe congenital abnormalities beyond 24 weeks' gestation.
METHODS
A retrospective chart review. Patient demographics and types of fetal anomalies were analysed according to the
This study was performed to achieve abortion in a short time and with minimum side effects in a bitch, as an alternative method for termination of unwanted pregnancy. The experimentation was performed on 10 privately owned crossbred pregnant bitches, in their late second trimester of pregnancy,
The human ether-a-go-go related gene (hERG) encodes two subunits, hERG 1a and hERG 1b, that combine in vivo to conduct the rapid delayed rectifier potassium current (IKr). Reduced IKr slows cardiac action potential (AP) repolarization and is an underlying cause of cardiac arrhythmias associated with
Liver functions (bilirubin, SGOT, SGPT, alkaline phosphatase) and electrolyte changes (sodium+, potassium+, calcium+) were tested in a prospective study in all patients admitted to the First Department of the Hospital of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, University of Vienna, throughout 24 months, for
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy may be complicated by fetal arrhythmia, fetal hypoxia, preterm labor, and, in severe cases, intrauterine death. The precise etiology of fetal death is not known. However, taurocholate has been demonstrated to cause arrhythmia and abnormal calcium dynamics in
Surgical sterilization of stray dogs is the most widely used technique to control stray dog population. Although ovariectomy is an effective technique for elective sterilization of female dogs, most stray dog population control programs generally utilize ovariohysterectomy for spaying OBJECTIVE
To evaluate pregnancy outcome after selective embryo reduction by transcervical aspiration or transvaginal puncture and intrathoracal injection with potassium chloride (KCl) in triplet pregnancies occurring after assisted procreation and to compare this outcome with that for triplets not
Summary: Cushing's syndrome is an endocrine disorder that causes anovulatory infertility secondary to hypercortisolism; therefore, pregnancy rarely occurs during its course. We present the case of a 24-year-old, 16-week pregnant female
OBJECTIVE
To compare second-trimester abortions with prostaglandin (PG) E2, with and without pretreatment-induced fetal death.
METHODS
A retrospective chart review of all vaginal PG E2-induced abortions at Westchester Medical Center between January 1996 and April 1998 was done. Only women who sought
BACKGROUND
First-trimester abortion in women with cervical stenosis results in difficult or impossible suction curettage. We present the case of an early pregnancy in a woman with cervical stenosis after cone biopsy in which the pregnancy was terminated by transvaginal needle aspiration of the
OBJECTIVE
To report the pregnancy outcome after transabdominal multifetal pregnancy reduction in multiple pregnancies achieved by intracytoplasmic sperm injection.
METHODS
One twin and 13 triplet pregnancies obtained by intracytoplasmic sperm injection underwent pregnancy reduction. Pregnancies were
BACKGROUND
Foetal reduction is a procedure by which one or more foetuses in a multi-foetal pregnancy are terminated selectively by an intracardial injection of potassium chloride. There is no Danish study regarding the outcomes after this procedure. The purpose of this study was to calculate results
Schistosomiasis in pregnancy may cause low birth weight, prematurity and stillbirth of the offspring. The placenta of pregnant women might be involved when schistosome ova are trapped in placental tissue. Standard histopathological methods only allow the examination of a limited amount of placental
The relationship between community drinking water quality and the occurrence of late adverse pregnancy outcomes was investigated by conducting a case-control study among women who delivered infants during August 1977 through March 1980 at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Massachusetts. The water
A pregnant 26-year-old woman was referred for evaluation and management of progressive hypertension and hypokalemia at 14 weeks of gestation. Her plasma aldosterone level was markedly elevated and magnetic resonance imaging showed a right adrenal tumor. Primary aldosteronism due to an aldosterone
