A Case of Ultrasound Diagnosis of Fetal Hiatal Hernia in Late Third Trimester of Pregnancy
Congenital hiatal hernia is a condition characterized by herniation of the abdominal organs, most commonly the stomach, through a physiological but overlax esophageal hiatus into the thoracic cavity. Prenatal diagnosis of this anomaly is unusual and only eight cases have been reported in the literature. In this paper we describe a case of congenital hiatal hernia that was suspected at ultrasoun...
متن کاملAssociation of Second and Third Trimester Weight Gain in Pregnancy with Maternal and Fetal Outcomes
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between weekly weight gain, during the second and third trimesters, classified according to the 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM/NRC) recommendations, and maternal and fetal outcomes. METHODS Gestational weight gain was evaluated in 2,244 pregnant women of the Brazilian Study of Gestational Diabetes (Estudo Brasileiro do Diabetes Gestacional--EBDG). Out...
متن کاملCorrelation between placental thickness in the second and third trimester and fetal weight.
PURPOSE To investigate relationship between placental thickness during the second and third trimesters and placental and birth weights. METHODS From January 2011 to June 2012, a total of 250 singleton pregnant women presented at our antenatal clinic were enrolled in this prospective study. All recruited women were assessed at the 1st trimester screening for baseline demographic and obstetric ...
متن کاملAn evaluation of overlying tissues to determine fetal exposure to ultrasound during the third trimester.
Measurements of minimum and average total tissue thicknesses overlying the fetus during the third trimester were taken on 52 patients between 24 and 40 weeks gestation. Minimum total thickness of tissues constantly along the ultrasound path had a mean value of 1.75 cm, ranging from 0.40 to 3.70 cm. This corresponded to a mean attenuation of 0.87 dB MHz-1, ranging from 0.30 to 1.68 dB MHz-1. Ave...
متن کاملEstimation of fetal weight by measurement of fetal thigh soft-tissue thickness in the late third trimester.
OBJECTIVE The accuracy of current formulae for the sonographic estimation of fetal weight (EFW) is compromised by significant intra- and interobserver variability of biometrical measurements, particularly circumferences. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of the linear measurement of mid-thigh soft-tissue thickness (STT) and to derive a novel formula for EFW. METHODS This was...
