Third-degree perineal lacerations in 7 mares were repaired surgically by a one-stage method (Goetz technique). Primary healing occurred in all of them without any complication. The conception rate obtained after surgery was 70.1%. Five horses out of seven got pregnant after surgery and no further injury was seen at subsequent foaling.

A 40-year-old, primigravid woman presented at 23 weeks of gestation for evaluation of an extra-abdominal echogenic cystic mass of the fetus. Amniocentesis revealed a karyotype of 46,XX. Prenatal ultrasound showed a two-vessel umbilical cord, hydrocolpos, and distended bladder, urethra, and colon, and a perineal cystic mass. The kidneys and amniotic fluid amount were normal. Fetal magnetic reson...

Materials and Methods This was a retrospective study carried out in a tertiary care centre from January 2009 to December 2013. Results: Eight children with median age 7.5 years (range ...

BACKGROUND Each year, approximately 350 000 women in the UK experience perineal suturing following childbirth. For those women whose perineal wound dehisces, the management will vary according to individual practitioner's preferences. For most women, the wound will be managed expectantly (healing by secondary intention), whereas others may be offered resuturing. However, there is limited scient...

The "biker's nodule" is a rarely appearing perineal nodular induration of the cyclist. Repeated microtrauma to the subcutaneous fatty tissue or collageneous tissue, caused by pressure or vibration which the bicycle's saddle exerts on the perineal region, leads to collagenous degeneration, myxoid alteration and pseudocyst formation. Because of the painful subcutaneous nodules the patient is ofte...
