It can result from trauma during childbirth. There can be bruising, swelling, superficial grazes, minor lacerations or tears or episiotomies. Some tears and all episiotomies require suturing.

Two small lobes were found in one placenta and other in the second placenta. Two normal placentas were taken as control. Ten histological samples by each lobe were processed with H&E stain. Five biopsies by each normal placenta were taken and three histological slides by biopsy were dyed equally. Degenerative changes at level of vessels of the placental villi were noted in stem villi: stromal lysis, multiple capillarity, congestioned vessels, and increased villi, in immature villi the vessels are near to the syncytium indicating extensive hypoxic villous damage. In this condition a dilatation of vessels.

In one in 10 women of childbearing age with normal thyroid pregnancy, increased thyroid hormone synthesis is required to function have underlying thyroid autoimmunity, which may meet fetal needs, resulting in increased iodine requirements. indicate reduced functional reserve.1 Up to 18% of women in Objective the first trimester in Australia are thyroid antibody positive.2 This article outlines changes to thyroid physiology and Thyroid hormone plays a critical role in pregnancy and iodine requirements in pregnancy, pregnancy specific understanding the unique changes to thyroid physiology in reference ranges for thyroid function tests and detection and pregnancy has important implications for the definition and management of thyroid conditions in pregnancy. treatment of thyroid disorders in pregnancy. Discussion Thyroid dysfunction affects 2–3% of pregnant women. Pregnancy specific reference ranges are required to define Thyroid physiology and pregnancy thyroid conditions in pregnancy and to guide treatment. The fetus is dependent on transplacental transfer of maternal thyroxine Overt maternal hypothyroidism is associated with adverse (T4). Deiodination of maternal T4 by the fetus results in local fetal pregnancy outcomes; thyroxine treatment should be production of liothyronine (T3), which is particularly important for commenced immediately in this condition. Thyroxine neurological development.3,4 Maternal T3 does not cross the placenta treatment has also been shown to be effective for pregnant and appears to have little, if any, role in development.

  • Ask the Experts Amniotic Fluid Embolism Steven L. Clark, MD
    Ask the Experts Questions have been written by: Amniotic Fluid Embolism Angela K. Hardyk, MD Mount Nittany Physician Group Ob/Gyn Steven L. Clark, MD State College, PA (Obstet Gynecol 2014;123:337–48) Responses have been written by: Steven L. Clark, MD Hospital Corporation of America Nashville, TN Question 1: How would you counsel a patient about a future pregnancy if she has been lucky enough to survive an amniotic fl uid embolism (AFE)? Would there be any special precautions she would need to take for her next pregnancy? Response from Dr. Clark: The available data in this area consist only of several very small series and case reports. These data suggest that the risks of recurrence are low. In addition, a pathophysiologic mechanism of disease that hinges on a maternal reaction to a specif- ic set of fetal antigens would suggest that recurrence ought to be uncommon. On the other hand, having dodged one bullet, is it really wise to spin the wheel again? My counseling goes something like this: “Available data suggest that the risk of recurrence is low, and there are a number of reports of successful pregnancy outcome after AFE survival. However, given the potential severity of AFE if it does recur, and a lack of really good data regarding risks, I advise you to undertake another pregnancy only if you are willing to accept a small risk of catastrophic outcome including death.” If a patient chooses to undertake pregnancy, I do not alter my management in any way, other than delivery in a tertiary center.

  • Intravenous Drug Use-Associated Infective Endocarditis in Pregnant Patients at a Hospital in West Virginia
    Open Access Original Article DOI: 10.7759/cureus.17218 Intravenous Drug Use-Associated Infective Endocarditis in Pregnant Patients at a Hospital in West Virginia Deena Dahshan 1 , Mohamed Suliman 2 , Ebad U. Rahman 3 , Zachary Curtis 1 , Ellen Thompson 2 1. Internal Medicine, Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine, Huntington, USA 2. Cardiology, Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine, Huntington, USA 3. Internal Medicine, St. Mary's Medical Center, Huntington, USA Corresponding author: Deena Dahshan, [email protected] Abstract Introduction Due to high levels of intravenous drug use (IVDU) in West Virginia (WV), there are increasing numbers of hospitalizations for infective endocarditis (IE). More specifically, pregnant patients with IE are a uniquely challenging population, with complex management and a clinical course that further affects the health of the fetus, with high morbidity and mortality. Timely recognition and awareness of the most common bacterial causes will provide hospitals and clinicians with valuable information to manage future patients. Methods This retrospective study analyzed the clinical course of pregnant patients admitted with IE and IVDU history presenting at Cabell Huntington Hospital from 2013 to 2018. Inclusion criteria were women between 16 and 45 years of age confirmed to be pregnant by urine pregnancy test and ultrasonography with at least eight weeks gestation, with a first-time diagnosis of endocarditis and an identified history of IVDU. We excluded charts with pre-existing risk factors including a history of valvular disease, rheumatic heart disease, surgical valve repair or mechanical valve replacement, or a diagnosis of coagulopathies. The resulting charts were evaluated for isolated organisms, reported clinical course, and complications of the pregnancy.

  • Full-Term Abdominal Extrauterine Pregnancy
    Masukume et al. Journal of Medical Case Reports 2013, 7:10 JOURNAL OF MEDICAL http://www.jmedicalcasereports.com/content/7/1/10 CASE REPORTS CASE REPORT Open Access Full-term abdominal extrauterine pregnancy complicated by post-operative ascites with successful outcome: a case report Gwinyai Masukume1*, Elton Sengurayi1, Alfred Muchara1, Emmanuel Mucheni2, Wedu Ndebele3 and Solwayo Ngwenya1 Abstract Introduction: Advanced abdominal (extrauterine) pregnancy is a rare condition with high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Because the placentation in advanced abdominal pregnancy is presumed to be inadequate, advanced abdominal pregnancy can be complicated by pre-eclampsia, which is another condition with high maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis and management of advanced abdominal pregnancy is difficult. Case presentation: We present the case of a 33-year-old African woman in her first pregnancy who had a full-term advanced abdominal pregnancy and developed gross ascites post-operatively. The patient was successfully managed; both the patient and her baby are apparently doing well. Conclusion: Because most diagnoses of advanced abdominal pregnancy are missed pre-operatively, even with the use of sonography, the cornerstones of successful management seem to be quick intra-operative recognition, surgical skill, ready access to blood products, meticulous post-operative care and thorough assessment of the newborn.
