“…Moreover when it comes to the use of radiology [e.g., computed tomography (CT)] to aid in reaching the diagnosis, the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends the use of CT and gadolinium contrast agents, when the benefits outweigh the potential risks, through evidence released in 2014, level III-C [12]. However, the diagnosis of AMI in pregnancy remains challenging due to the various differential diagnoses for acute abdomen and the preferability to avoid using CT with contrast [13,14].…”

Introduction: Acute mesenteric ischemia is a rare complication of thromboembolic diseases in the mesenteric vessels, which was noted to occur due to the hypercoagulable circulation associated with pregnancy. Case Report: This paper presents a case report of acute mesenteric ischemia in a 9 weeks pregnant female, who was diagnosed late due to the nonspecific presentation of the disease yet was adequately treated with an acceptable result. Conclusion: Early detection and treatment of such disease prevents further deterioration of the mother's condition, thus ensuring a favorable outcome for both the mother and the fetus.

OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence of gestational ovarian cyst form in the early pregnancy or during first trimester that may contribute to the formation of ovarian cyst in pregnancy. METHODOLOGY Data collected through patient’s demographic history and questionnaire. For each case the patient’s ultrasound images were evaluated to determine the type of cyst, ultrasound appearance, with their rates and location. RESULTS Out of 111 patients were included in the study, the total incidence of ovarian cyst (Corpus luteum) in pregnancy were 1.8%. The ovarian cyst through analysis was found in patients whose gestational age was in the range of first trimester to second trimester. Other 109 (98.1%) Patients with family history of ovarian cyst, Diabetes, Induction therapy and Obesity found no cystic lesion. Patients included in this study were between the age of 18-48 Years CONCLUSION The outcome of this study has shown that prevalence of ovarian cyst in pregnancy is very less because ovarian cyst that form in the first trimester usually resolve itself without given any medication or resection treatment. Obstetric ultrasound has been found to be accurate in figuring out simple, solid, and complex type of cyst in pregnancy.
