OBJECTIVE
Placental insufficiency is a pathological condition consisting of a placental functional deficit with multifactorial etiology; it can cause maternal complications such as edema, proteinuria, hypertension, etc. Our study aims to establish if placenta analysis after birth can lead to the
We report a case of prenatally diagnosed intracranial hemorrhage and hydrops in the fetus of a mother with a past history of surgical and medical treatment for gastric lymphoma and having high platelet counts thereafter. To the best of our knowledge, such a complication of maternal thrombocythemia
Chorangioma is a benign angiomatous tumor of the placenta occurring with a frequency of approximately 1 % of all examined placentas. Pregnancies especially with large chorangiomas are frequently complicated by abruptio placentae, premature labour, fetal anaemia, hydrops, cardiomegaly and
Impetigo herpetiformis (IH), or generalized pustular psoriasis of pregnancy, is an exceedingly rare, generalized pustular skin eruption occurring during pregnancy associated with hypovolemia, sepsis, hypocalcemia, and airway edema. Fetal outcomes are generally poor, and parturients with IH may
The main pathology leading to mortinatality has been determined. It is shown that in 57.8% of cases mortinatality is associated with placental insufficiency, the reason for which can be found out by the pathoanatomical study of the afterbirth. It is proposed to differentiate afterbirth disorders of
Transcription profiling of placentomes derived from somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT, n = 20), in vitro fertilization (IVF, n = 9), and artificial insemination (AI, n = 9) at or near term development was performed to better understand why SCNT and IVF often result in placental defects, hydrops,
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to show the diagnostic possibilities of ultrasound in twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), to demonstrate its usefulness in cases of hemoglobin difference < 5 g/dL in neonates as well as in cases complicated by intrauterine death of one or both
From 2002 to 2007, 101 camelid abortions and stillbirths were submitted to the Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at Oregon State University (84 alpacas [Vicugna pacos], 13 llamas [Lama glama], 4 unknown). For most cases (n = 67), a cause was not determined by routine testing. Eighty-five submissions
BACKGROUND
Clinically useful indices of fetal cardiac function have not been fully delineated for tissue Doppler imaging (TDI).
RESULTS
In the present study, 56 pregnancies between the 17(th) and 38(th) weeks of gestation included 38 normal fetuses, 6 cases of hydrops fetalis (HF), and 12 of
The purpose of this study was to report on the morphological findings in placentae from abortions, stillbirths and perinatal deaths, and to assess the value of the results of the placental examinations. The material included 341 placentae and their matched autopsies. Fifty placentae came from
Reported are the concentrations of beta-endorphin, beta-lipotropin, and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in the amniotic fluid and plasma of 40 healthy pregnant women at different stages of gestation. Moreover, the amniotic fluid levels of the three peptides were evaluated in 20 other pregnant
Localized, myocardial toxoplasmosis contributed to the death of a female ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) 1 week after the delivery of 4 stillborn offspring with disseminated toxoplasmosis; the diagnosis was obtained by histopathology and immunohistochemistry in all 5 lemurs. Varying degrees of
The high incidence of pregnancy loss and prenatal morbidity and mortality in cloned animals may be due to placental insufficiency, thereby compromising fetal survival. Our objective was to characterize morphological changes in fetal membranes of cloned bovine pregnancies. Two groups of cows with
Free radical-mediated injury is implicated in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy observed in neonates. We investigated in utero free radical production and injury following hypoxia-ischemia to premature fetal brain utilizing a rabbit model of acute placental insufficiency. Pregnant rabbits at 29 days
BACKGROUND
Long-term hypoxia (LTH) is an important stressor related to health and disease during development. At different time points from fetus to adult, we are exposed to hypoxic stress because of placental insufficiency, high-altitude residence, smoking, chronic anemia, pulmonary, and heart
