Giant cystic umbilical cord associated with patent urachus and intrauterine fetal demise.
True cystic structures within the umbilical cord are rare, and when they persist into the second and third trimester, they are often associated with an abnormal karyotype or other developmental abnormalities. Clinically significant pseudocysts resulting from massive edema of the umbilical cord have been associated with a congenitally patent urachus. We present a case of intrauterine fetal demis...
متن کاملComment on “Intrapartum Intrauterine Fetal Demise with Normal Umbilical Cord Blood Gas Values at Birth”
A case is presented in which a fetus was delivered by cesarean section for failure to progress and a "nonreassuring heart rate tracing" in which the Apgar scores were unexpectedly 0 at 1, 5, and 10 minutes. Resuscitation was unsuccessful after 30 minutes. The venous cord gas was normal and the arterial blood gas was not consistent with intrapartum asphyxia. At the time of surgery, the placenta ...
متن کاملTrue Umbilical Cord Knot Leading to Fetal Demise
The incidence of true knot of the umbilical cord is not only very low but it is often undiagnosed antenatally when present despite the availability of prenatal ultrasonography. When the true knot remains tight, it may impede the circulation of the fetus and may result to fetal death in utero especially in labor. We report a very uncommon case of true knot of the umbilical cord that ultimately l...
متن کاملFetal demise and associated factors following umbilical cord prolapse in Mulago hospital, Uganda: a retrospective study
BACKGROUND Umbilical cord prolapse is an obstetric complication associated with high perinatal morbidity and mortality. A few interventions may improve fetal outcome. In developed countries these have advanced to giving intrauterine fetal resuscitation. Conditions in low resource settings do not allow for some of these advanced techniques. Putting the mother in knee chest position and immediate...
متن کاملIntrauterine Growth Restriction Associated with Excessively Long Umbilical Cord
We present a 37-week female baby, known with intrauterine growth restriction since 25 weeks of pregnancy, born with a placenta with an excessive long umbilical cord (ELUC), without any other abnormalities. ELUC is mostly an incidental finding after delivery, but represents a potentially detectable intrauterine cause of growth restriction. A system that allows ultrasound measurement of the lengt...
