Background: Cesarean scar ectopic pregnancies are a rare form of extrauterine pregnancies, yet their incidence has increased along with the rise in number cesarean deliveries. As other pose greater risk for maternal hemorrhage and ultimately mortality. Case presentation: We present series clinical cases pregnancy diagnosed by transvaginal ultrasonography. Each patient received an individualized...

After introduction of high-frequency vaginal transducer, transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound has established a field of sonoembryology and most of the major fetal abnormalities have been detectable in the first trimester. Three-dimensional ultrasound adds an objective and comprehensive information to two-dimensional sonographic findings.

We report the prenatal diagnosis of Cantrell syndrome in the first trimester. During a routine transabdominal ultrasonographic examination, a midline supraumbilical abdominal wall defect including herniated liver and ectopia cordis with a large omphalocele containing the intestines and cystic hygroma was incidentally identified at the 12th week of gestation. A transvaginal sonography examinatio...

OBJECTIVE Ultrasound is considered a safe imaging modality and is routinely applied during early pregnancy. However, reservations are expressed concerning the application of Doppler ultrasound in early pregnancy due to energy emission of the ultrasound probe and its conversion to heat. The objective of this study was to evaluate the thermal effects of emitted Doppler ultrasound of different ult...

pelvic inflammatory disease (pid) is a rare complication of transvaginal oocyte retrieval. it may result in failure of assisted reproductive techniques (art). during a 7 years period, 5958 transvaginal ultrasound-guided oocyte retrievals resulted in 10 cases of acute pid. eight out of 10 patients were diagnosed infertile because of endometriosis. two patients had mild ovarian, 3 had stage iii, ...

Transvaginal sonography has been shown to be an accurate technique for discriminating between benign and malignant adnexal masses. Accurate preoperative differential diagnosis of adnexal masses is essential for optimizing patients’ treatment. The advancement and wider availability of therapies of assisted conception have occurred to a large extent as a result of developments in ultrasonography....

BACKGROUND Transvaginal ultrasound is used conventionally as initial investigation of patients with abnormal uterine bleeding but saline contrast sonohysterography is a better technique to reliably distinguish focal from diffuse endometrial lesions. This study was performed to compare the ability of transvaginal ultrasonography and saline infusion sonohysterography as initial modality for the d...

OBJECTIVE To assess the value of transvaginal uterine artery Doppler at 23 weeks of gestation in predicting the development of adverse perinatal outcomes in twin pregnancies. PATIENTS AND METHODS Women with twin pregnancies attending for routine ultrasound examination at 23 weeks in any one of seven hospitals underwent Doppler assessment of the uterine arteries. The right and left uterine art...
