Uterine artery embolization for cervical ectopic pregnancy
A 36-year-old woman with 3 prior C-sections is diagnosed with a caesarean scar ectopic pregnancy. Despite receiving intramuscular and transvaginal methotrexate injection 2 months before presentation, the beta human chorionic gonadotropin was recorded to be 73 mIU/mL at the time of encounter. The patient complained of vaginal bleeding with a significant drop in hematocrit from 40% to 33%. Transv...
متن کاملCASE REPORT Pregnancy After Uterine Artery Embolization
CASES: A primigravida who had previously undergone uterine artery embolization had premature rupture of membranes at 24 weeks. She had a cesarean delivery at 28 weeks, which was followed by uterine atony requiring hysterectomy. A primigravida who had previously undergone uterine artery embolization delivered appropriately grown dichorionic twins at 36 weeks. An analysis of the 50 published case...
متن کاملAre Uterine and Ovarian Artery Doppler Velocimetry Values Good Pregnancy Predictors in Clomiphene Citrate Cycles?
Background We conducted this prospective study to evaluate the prognostic significance of uterine and ovarian artery Doppler velocimetry in clomiphene citrate (CC) cycles. MaterialsAndMethods A total of 80 patients with unexplained infertility were given 100 mg/day of CC from day 3 to day 7 of their cycles in this current prospective study. On cycle day 3, before administration of CC, each pati...
متن کاملDifferent changes in resistance index between uterine artery and uterine radial artery during early pregnancy.
BACKGROUND Changes in blood flow impedance of the uterine artery (UA) and uterine radial artery (RA) which is in the lower-extremity of the UA were examined during early pregnancy. METHODS Blood flow impedance was assessed by transvaginal color-pulsed-Doppler-ultrasonography in 72 women from weeks 4-16 of pregnancy and expressed as a resistance index (RI). RESULTS RA-RI remained at the late...
متن کاملPregnancy attenuates uterine artery pressure-dependent vascular tone: role of PKC/ERK pathway.
The mechanisms of adaptation of uterine artery vascular tone to pregnancy are not fully understood. The present study tested the hypothesis that pregnancy decreases the PKC-mediated Ca(2+) sensitivity of the contractile process and attenuates myogenic tone in resistance-sized uterine arteries. In pressurized uterine arteries from nonpregnant (NPUA) and near-term pregnant (PUA) sheep, we measure...
