fetal distress/neoplasms

OBJECTIVE To assess the influence of fetal distress on interleukin-1beta, interleukin-6, interleukin-8 and on tumour necrosis factor-alpha blood levels in noninfected full-term neonates. METHODS In a multicentre prospective study, cord blood samples were obtained at time of delivery from 234

There is no consensus on the timing of delivery of an infant with nonreassuring fetal status that is associated with maternal status epilepticus. We herein describe a case of status epilepticus due to brain tumor at 28 weeks of gestation.

Fetal tumors are being diagnosed with increasing frequency and great accuracy by antenatal ultrasound. High-output cardiac failure and hydrops indicate fetal distress. Management may be limited by the gestational age of the fetus. Our experience with three fetal tumors demonstrates the dilemma with

OBJECTIVE We investigated prospectively cord blood TNF-α and IL-6 levels as diagnostic indicators of brain damage in neonates with non-asphyxia fetal distress. METHODS Eighty neonates delivered by cesarean section from January 2013 to December 2014 were enrolled. Magnetic resonance imaging was

BACKGROUND Hyperplastic gingivitis and gingival hyperplasia accompanying gestation have been termed "pregnancy gingivitis" and "pregnancy tumor." The condition is benign but, rarely, is complicated by severe bleeding that is difficult to manage. A single case of a pregnancy tumor is

Three hundred and twenty-four patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (33 mild dysplasia, 109 moderate dysplasia, 118 severe dysplasia, 64 carcinoma in situ) underwent laser vaporization with the CO 2 laser. Eighty-two patients with CIN (mild dysplasia 7, moderate dysplasia 10, severe

OBJECTIVE We assessed the incidence of perinatal morbidity and evaluated the outcome in children with prenatally diagnosed renal tumors in a retrospective multicenter study. METHODS A review of the records of patients from 20 institutions identified 28 children with prenatally diagnosed renal

This is a case report of a disseminated fetal rhabdoid tumor discovered at 32 weeks of gestation in a 29-year-old woman on immunosuppressive therapy. The mother consulted for a decrease in fetal movement. Fetal ultrasound showed signs of a disseminated tumor affecting the left armpit, liver, spleen,

A fetus with a huge hepatic tumor was detected by sonography at 36 weeks of gestation. The mass appeared as a single, solid and polylobular tumor located in the right lobe of the liver. Foci of hemorrhage, necrosis and some tiny calcifications were seen. The adjacent right kidney appeared normal but

Colorectal carcinoma during pregnancy is a very rare event. We presented a woman with metachronous metastatic ovarian tumor existing 1 year after surgical removal of perforated sigmoid colon carcinoma encountered during cesarean section of woman of 36-week gestation for fetal distress. Pregnant

A woman previously treated for squamous cell carcinoma of the neck underwent a cesarean section for fetal distress. Extensive metastases of the placenta and an ovary were histologically compatible with her prior malignancy. Diffuse infiltration of the placenta by this neoplastic process was

The authors report a case of acute fetal distress and immediate respiratory distress in a neonate presenting with large hydrometrocolpos. This diagnosis, infrequently concerned in such a situation, should be suggested in cases with abdominal tumors.

Cushing's syndrome is a rare condition in the general population (1/1000000) and is even less common during pregnancy. We report the case of a patient cared at 27 weeks of gestation (wg) for hypertension and electolyte disturbances. Cushing's syndrome was confirmed by salivary cortisol and ACTH

Pheochromocytoma is a rare catecholamine producing tumor. Anesthetic management for the resection of pheochromocytoma is hard and challenging issue to anesthesiologist, because of its potentially lethal cardiovascular complications. It becomes more complicated when the patient is pregnant.

The diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma in pregnancy is rare (incidence of 0.018-0.073/1000 pregnancies). Its rarity is reflected by a paucity of cases reported in the literature. The present report concerns a case of advanced serous ovarian carcinoma in a full-term pregnancy. This was an incidental
