OP08.03: Tranvaginal ultrasonographic measurement of cervical consistency index (CCI) throughout gestation in twin pregnancy

Heterotopic twin gestation – abdominal and intrauterine pregnancy

A very rare case of spontaneous heterotopic intrauterine and abdominal twin pregnancy has been presented. The first fetus was born by caesarean section. After 3 weeks, because of the symptoms of appendicitis the abdomen was re-opened. During re-operation appendicitis was found out, and the presence of terminated abdominal pregnancy at 18th week of its duration. Further course of puerperium was ...

Predicting mode of delivery using mid-pregnancy ultrasonographic measurement of cervical length.

BACKGROUND It has been recognized that preterm labor is related to short cervical length and that poor progress in labor is a major indication for cesarean section at term. We therefore hypothesize that long cervix is not associated with increased risk of cesarean delivery during labor at term. OBJECTIVES The objective is to determine the relationship between cervical length at mid-pregnancy ...

Three-dimensional ultrasonographic diagnosis of a cervical pregnancy.

Cervical pregnancy is a rare condition characterized by implantation of a fertilized ovum in the endocervical canal below the internal os level; its incidence is less than 0.1% of all ectopic pregnancies. Although predisposing factors have been described, the cause of cervical pregnancy remains unknown. Cervical pregnancy has a high morbidity potential due to massive hemorrhage that can be asso...

Undiagnosed Cervical Ectopic Pregnancy: Continuing to a Viable Gestation

We report an extremely unusual case of an undiagnosed cervical ectopic pregnancy resulting in the birth of a live born baby with catastrophic maternal hemorrhage necessitating peripartum hysterectomy, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of such cases.
