  • Insights Into Abdominal Pregnancy Gwinyai Masukume
    WikiJournal of Medicine, 2014, 1 (2) doi: 10.15347/wjm/2014.012 Review Article Insights into abdominal pregnancy Gwinyai Masukume Editor’s note This article provided a great deal of valuable evidence that was not mentioned in the Wikipedia article on ab- dominal pregnancy, and the Wikipedia article has subsequently been expanded with text from this publication. However, because of this purpose, it has never been the aim of this article in itself to be a complete review of the subject, and many aspects of abdominal pregnancy are not included herein.

C.M Nkabinde and M.H Motswaledi. Distributed under Creative Commons CC-BY 3.0 Abstract The word lithopedion is a descriptive term derived from the Greek words litho (meaning stone), and pedion (meaning child). This is a rare condition with less than 300 cases reported in 400 years of medical literature. Lithopedion is a name given to an extra-uterine pregnancy that evolves to foetal death and calcification. This rare phenomenon, that was first described in the 10 th century by Albucasis, a surgeon of the Arabic era of medicine, is a sequelae of a form of ectopic pregnancy. Most cases of lithopedion are discovered incidentally on abdominal x-ray, at surgery, or autopsy. We report a case of lithopedion in a woman who presented with a hypertensive cerebrovascular accident. Keywords: Cerebrovascular accident; hypertension; abdominal pregnancy; lithopedion; lithokelyphopedion. Introduction pregnancy is 1:11 000 pregnancies, and lithopedion occurs in 1,5% to 1,8% of these A lithopedion as an extra-uterine cases¹.

Stambeli is shaped by pre-Islamic West African animist beliefs, spiritual healing and trances. The genre arrived in Tunisia when sub-Saharan Africans arrived in the north through slavery, migration or trade from present-day countries like Mauritania, Mali and Chad. Today, it is a geographic and cultural intersection of sub-Saharan, North and West African influences.

The collection begins with ‘Mémoires sur l’action mutuelle de deux courans électriques’, Ampère’s “first great memoir on electrody- namics” (DSB), representing his first response to the demonstration on 21 April 1820 by the Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted (1777-1851) that electric currents create magnetic fields; this had been reported by François Arago (1786- 1853) to an astonished Académie des Sciences on 4 September.

  • Monozygotic Twins (From One Oocyte) Both Have the Same (Identical) Genom, Which Gives Rise Into One Gestational Sac
    Prof. J. E. Jirásek, M.D., DSc. The Dangerous Twins separated and conjoined The origin of twins: A – Dizygotic twins (from two oocytes), each has an unique genom and each gives rise to a separate gestational sac. If two separate gestational sacs are present, the twins may be monozygotic or dizygotic. If the twins are of different sex, they are always dizygotic B – Monozygotic twins (from one oocyte) both have the same (identical) genom, which gives rise into one gestational sac. The twins are monochorionic. Monochorionic twins are biamnial or monoamnial. Monozygotic twins originating from two first separated blastomeres Monozygotic twins originating from morula (two groups of early blastomeres) gives rise to two gestational sacs Classification of twins: A – Equal separated twins 1. dichorial a) monozygotic b) dizygotic (most frequent) 2. monochorial (always monozygotic) a) diamnial b) monoamnial c) with vascular anastomoses (TTTS – twin to twin transfusion) d) acardial (TRAP – twin reversed arterial pefusion syndrom) B – Conjoined twins (always monozygotic, monochorial and monoamnial) 1. isopagi (equal conjoined twins) a) originating from peripheral fusions of two germ discs b) originating from duplications of axial structures 2. heteropagi (unequal conjoined twins) autosit (main twin), heterosit (parasitic twin) Conjoined twins: A – Peripheral fusion of two germ disks (eight limbs) B – Duplication of axial structures (face, head, vertebral column, external genitalia) Peripheral fusions of two germ discs (eight limbs) Pagi monocephali
