Prenatal prediction of pulmonary hypoplasia: clinical, biometric, and Doppler velocity correlates.
OBJECTIVES To determine the value of pulmonary artery Doppler velocimetry relative to fetal biometric indices and clinical correlates in the prenatal prediction of lethal lung hypoplasia (LH) in prolonged (>1 week) oligohydramnios. METHODS Forty-two singleton pregnancies with oligohydramnios associated with premature rupture of membranes ([PROM]; n = 31) or bilateral renal pathology (n = 11) ...
متن کاملPulmonary Agenesis and Hypoplasia.
In recent years the more frequent use of x-rays has revealed various congenital abnormalities of the lungs which had formerly passed undetected during life, since the clinical signs and symptoms may be minimal. An attempt is made here to elucidate the different pictures which may be seen in varying degrees of underdevelopment of the lungs. For clarity of description the following nomenclature i...
متن کاملInfant with Clinical Evidence of Pulmonary Hypoplasia: A Case Report
Pulmonary hypoplasia is the incomplete development of lung tissue. A reduced number of lung cells, airways, and alveoli is the hallmark and can be seen unilaterally or in both lungs. The diagnosis, however, is usually made upon pathologic examination. Here we have presented a case of a term infant presenting with severe hypoxemic respiratory failure. Despite optimizing medical and respiratory m...
متن کاملPrenatal diagnosis of a giant intracranial teratoma associated with pulmonary hypoplasia.
We present a case in which an intracranial tumour replacing all intracranial contents was diagnosed by sonography at 31 weeks' gestation. The patient was delivered by caesarean section and died shortly after delivery. At necropsy, the tumour was found to be a teratoma with no recognisable normal brain tissue present. Additional findings at necropsy included pulmonary and adrenal hypoplasia. The...
