Vaginal varix during pregnancy is a rare condition. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature. Most vaginal varices are asymptomatic, but some are associated with a sense of local mass, or severe discomfort and spontaneous vaginal bleeding. A 32-year-old woman was admitted for acute spontaneous vaginal bleeding at 37+6 weeks’ gestation. Upon pelvic inspection, we observed dilated va...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of parity on the relationship between pre-induction cervical length and the induction-to-delivery interval and rate of vaginal delivery within 24 h in women undergoing induction of labor for prolonged pregnancy. METHODS In 382 singleton pregnancies, induction of labor was carried out at 41 + 3 to 42 + 1 weeks of gestation. The cervical length was measured by tr...

Ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors, including granulose cell tumors (GCTs), are a group of neoplasms that occur rarely, especially in children. Only 0.1 percent of all ovarian tumors and 4-5 percent of GCTs occur in children. The most common presentation of these tumors in children is precocious puberty. We report a 6 years old girl with isosexual precocity, presented as premature thelarche and va...

A female infant weighing 2,200 g was delivered at 34 weeks of gestation by vaginal delivery. She presented with an irreducible mass in the left inguinal region at 32 days of age. An ultrasonography (US) was performed and an incarcerated hernia containing uterus, fallopian tube, and ovary was diagnosed preoperatively. Surgery was performed through an inguinal approach; the uterus, fallopian tube...

Only benign adnexal masses are suitable for treatment by operative laparoscopy. Ovarian cancer must always be managed by midline laparotomy. In our experience the preoperative workup (clinical examination, study of past history, trans vaginal ultrasonography, doppler, tumoral markers etc.) together with the diagnostic phase of laparoscopy provide a sensitivity value of 100%, a positive predicti...

Uterine inversion is shortly described as the indentation and depression of the fundic area extending downwards up to the different levels of the birth canal till vaginal opening. Clinical diagnosis of uterine inversion is difficult due to its non-specific symptoms and physical examination. Ultrasonography is the most practical modality for radiological evaluation, but it is inadequate to deter...

1. Homozygous α-thalassaemia-1 can be predicted reliably using ultrasound measurement of the foetal cardiothoracic ratio at 12 to 13 weeks’ gestation, but not at 10 to 11 weeks’ gestation. 2. When an optimal foetal cardiothoracic ratio cannot be obtained with an abdominal ultrasound examination at 12 to 13 weeks’ gestation, a vaginal ultrasound examination is useful. 3. The use of ultrasonograp...

We present an unusual case of recurrent ectopic pregnancy in the tubal stump of a previous partial salpingectomy. The patient presented with the classic triad of amenorrhoea, per vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain paired with a void uterus on ultrasonography. Her history was notable for a previous ectopic pregnancy resulting in a laparotomy and salpingectomy-oophrectomy. A positive B-hCG and e...

Abstract Vaginal pH and microbiome have been reported to influence fertility in women. In cattle, estrous synchronization protocols are a great tool overcome infertility; however, the effects of hormones administered protocol on vaginal unknown. A total 24 cows were enrolled 7-d Co-Synch + controlled internal drug release (CIDR) had individual flushes collected during handling events days 0, 7 ...
