Noninvasive diagnosis by Doppler ultrasonography of fetal anemia resulting from parvovirus infection.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity for the detection of fetal anemia in pregnancies that are complicated by parvovirus B19 infection. STUDY DESIGN Doppler measurements of the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity were performed weekly in 32 fetuses at risk for… (More)
Fibrinolytic defects and recurrent miscarriage: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVE To systematically review evidence of the association between fibrinolytic defects and recurrent miscarriage. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE, EMBASE, and references of retrieved articles (last update September 2006) were used. METHODS OF STUDY SELECTION Studies comparing the prevalence of fibrinolytic defects in patients with recurrent miscarriage and… (More)
Correction of fetal anemia on the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity.
OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of correction of fetal anemia on the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity values. METHODS With Doppler ultrasonography, middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity was measured in 41 fetuses before and immediately after 54 intrauterine transfusions for severe red blood cell alloimmunization. The fetuses were… (More)
Misoprostol versus low-dose oxytocin for cervical ripening: a prospective, randomized, double-masked trial.
OBJECTIVE A variety of cervical ripening agents exist, yet none is ideal. We performed a prospective, randomized, double-masked comparison of low-dose minimal-escalation oxytocin to misoprostol in a predominantly high-risk population. STUDY DESIGN Patients were allocated prospectively in a double-masked, randomized, stratified basis by an investigational… (More)
Comparison of Misoprostol and Dinoprostone for elective induction of labour in nulliparous women at full term: A randomized prospective study
BACKGROUND The objective of this randomized prospective study was to compare the efficacy of 50 mcg vaginal misoprostol and 3 mg dinoprostone, administered every nine hours for a maximum of three doses, for elective induction of labor in a specific cohort of nulliparous women with an unfavorable cervix and more than 40 weeks of gestation. MATERIAL AND… (More)
Perinatal morbidity and mortality rates in severe twin-twin transfusion syndrome: results of the International Amnioreduction Registry.
OBJECTIVE Serial aggressive amnioreduction is the most widely used therapy for pregnancies that are complicated by twin-twin transfusion syndrome. Survival rates reported with this therapy are 33% to 83%, the wide range attributable to the small number of patients in these case series. Similarly, data on morbidity in survivors are imprecise. We instituted… (More)
Routine obstetrical ultrasound at 18-22 weeks: our experience on 7,236 fetuses.
OBJECTIVE This study aimed at examining the detection rate of congenital abnormalities by using routine ultrasonography at 18-22 weeks of gestation. METHODS The sample included 7,236 fetuses. A detailed sonographic examination was performed in each fetus and a neonatal evaluation or pathology examination was made to confirm the prenatal findings. … (More)
Intramural pregnancy with negative maternal serum b-HCG.
We report an extremely rare case of intramural pregnancy with negative maternal b-HCG value. The patient underwent a "myomectomy" but the pathology examination revealed chorionic villi consistent with ectopic pregnancy. Diagnosis is very difficult in cases with menorrhagia and especially when pregnancy is not suspected.
Accurate prediction of fetal hemoglobin by Doppler ultrasonography.
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility of using the middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) to predict the actual value of fetal hemoglobin in fetuses undergoing a first cordocentesis for detection of anemia caused by maternal red cell alloimmunization. METHODS Doppler velocimetry of the MCA-PSV was performed in 18 fetuses before an initial… (More)
Combined thrombophilic mutations in women with unexplained recurrent miscarriage.
PROBLEM To compare the prevalence of five common thrombophilic polymorphisms and their combination in women with recurrent miscarriage and a control group. METHOD OF STUDY Genomic analysis using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out in patients with two or more miscarriages and controls for Factor V Leiden, Factor V A1299H (HR2), Factor II… (More)
