“…[ 13 ] There was a significant relationship between delivery through cesarean section and ETN, and it was observed more in males, which was similar to findings of the previous studies . [ 13 , 21 ] The reason for male predominance is uncertain, but the adrenal and gonadal androgen levels in male newborns were elevated, which may have a direct impact on sebaceous glands, which are included in the pathogenesis of ETN. There were more commonly seen in term neonates with normal birth weight, which was similar to the similar study findings.…”

Background: During the neonatal life cycle, various dermatological conditions are common. In comparison to the skin of adults, neonates' skins are more susceptible to infections in the first week of their lives. These infections often lead to many dermatological skin complications and create worrisome among parents. Hence, it is crucial to diagnose and manage such affected neonates at the earliest. This study aimed to highlight and estimate the occurrence of numerous dermatoses and assess various skin changes that occurred physiologically and pathologically in neonates. Methodology: In this cross-sectional observational study, 474 neonates were enrolled in the neonatal intensive care unit. The whole newborn skin surface, comprising the palms and soles, scalp, mucous membranes, genitalia, hair, and nails, was scrutinized under adequate light, and all changes that occurred over the skin were observed and recorded. The sample size estimation was undertaken from the references that have the least prevalent cutaneous dermatosis: hypertrichosis desquamation and napkin dermatosis. A statistical analysis like the Chi-square test was performed to associate the type of dermatosis with the parameters of age, gender, delivery type, and birth weight. Results: Of the total 474 cases, 90 (18.98%) had single dermatosis, while the remaining 384 (81.01%) had more than one form of dermatosis. Among the 384 cases, sebaceous gland hyperplasia (SGH) in 105 (22.15%), Epstein pearls in 50 (10.54%), erythema toxicum neonatorum (ETN) in 40 (8.43%), physiological desquamation in 25 (5.27%), lanugo hair in 20 (4.21%), miliaria in 22 (4.64%), salmon patch in 13 (2.74%), cradle cap/seborrheic dermatitis in 6 (1.26%), vernix caseosa in 12 (2.53%), transient neonatal pustular melanosis in 13 (2.74%), congenital melanocytic nevus in 20 (4.21%), hemangioma in 15 (3.16%), neonatal acne in 5 (1.05%), napkin dermatitis in 10 (2.10%), cutis marmorata in 6 (1.26%), milia in 2 (0.42%) intertrigo 3 (0.63%), collodion baby in 2 (0.42%), and neonatal occipital alopecia in 2 (0.42%) neonates each and others, respectively. Conclusion: The findings from the present study were representative of a specific racial/geographic distribution and will assist in adding or comparing the prevalence of neonatal dermatosis with other geographic regions as the array of dermatological characterizations in neonates varies as per time and place. This study aims to provide insight into the future implications in the neonatal dermatology domain and avoid further skin complications.

“…It is rapidly becoming a major cause of obstetric complications worldwide and it is a major contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality, reflecting the recent escalation in the cesarean delivery rate. It accounts for 33-50% of all emergency peripartum hysterectomies (17). The identified risk factors for placenta accreta include both demographic (multiparity, age) and obstetric factors (previous uterine surgery or curettage, uterine infections, placenta previa, or operative delivery).…”

Introduction: to investigate the association between the amount of bleeding during a cesarean section and the effacement of the uterine cervix in patients with pernicious placenta previa. Methods: this study reviewed 50 singleton pregnancies with pernicious placenta previa. In cases of pernicious placenta previa, the cervical length were retrospectively measured and compared with the amount of bleeding during the cesarean section. Results: there was a significantly negative correlation between the amount of bleeding and cervical length (r = -0.390, P =0.005). The threshold cervical length associated with massive bleeding (>2500 mL) was 34.5mm, based on an ROC curve. Then, all cases were stratified by cervical length, ≤34.5mm was defined as Group S, and 34.5 mm as Group L. The amount of bleeding in Group S was significantly larger than in Group L, and the length of hospital stay was longer in Group S. It was also found that hysterectomy after CS was significantly higher in Group S than in Group L. However, there were no significant differences in any of the other maternal demographics between the two groups. Conclusion: this study demonstrated that a short cervical length, in cases with pernicious placenta previa, was associated with massive bleeding during the operation. In addition, short cervical length seems to be one of the warning signs for massive bleeding and cesarean hysterectomy during the operation for pernicious placenta previa.

“…Prior reports have described that retained invasive placenta may mimic acquired arteriovenous malformation [ 18 ], leiomyomata [ 19 ], and endometrial cancer [ 20 ]. Therefore, it is important to consider the diagnosis of retained invasive placenta in patients presenting with PPH who have risk factors for invasive placentation.…”

This case demonstrates a rare event of retained invasive placenta masquerading as choriocarcinoma. The patient presented with heavy vaginal bleeding following vaginal delivery complicated by retained products of conception. Ultrasound and computed tomography demonstrated a vascular endometrial mass, invading the uterine wall and raising suspicion for choriocarcinoma. Hysterectomy revealed retained invasive placenta.
