Cerebrovascular resistance is significantly lower in fetuses with CHD, especially in cases of left side obstruction. The cerebro/placental hemodynamic changes are similar to that described in fetuses with placental insufficiency and may contribute to their abnormal neurologic development.
We present a case of a patient developing uterine prolapse during pregnancy. The cervix reached the introitus at 10 weeks gestation and subsequentely protruted progressively as the pregnancy advanced. The patient was conservatively treated with bed rest and the main maternal and fetal risks are avoided. At 4 months postpartum follow-up there was no evidence of uterine prolapse.
Accuracy of EFW in LGA fetuses is attributable to the biometric parameters used. Our findings show that the best formulas for EFW are those which only consider the abdominal measurements, especially in diabetic mothers. The new variable that we propose (HPT) confirms this result.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
