OBJECTIVES To present a case with acute abdominal pain due to idiopathic intestinal intussusception diagnosed by ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) during the early postpartum period. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 21-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital with abdominal pain, nausea and emesis after a normal vaginal delivery. Laboratory tests done at admission we...

Ectopic pregnancy is the implantation of a fertilized egg outside the uterine endometrial cavity. For women presenting to the emergency department with abdominal pain and/or vaginal bleeding, ectopic pregnancy is an important diagnostic consideration. The diagnosis is made based on laboratory values and ultrasound imaging findings. The ultrasound appearance of both normal early pregnancy and ec...

A female with suspected Down syndrome was born by vaginal delivery at 37 weeks 2 days’ gestation to a mother with a history of Type A2 gestational diabetes mellitus. Routine prenatal testing consisted of a non-invasive screening test for aneuploidy. Results, presented in Table 1, indicated an aneuploidy for trisomy of chromosome 21, indicating an increased risk for Down syndrome. Prenatal confi...

We present a case of a fetal pancreatic cyst, a rare disease in fetal life, detected prenatally at 30 weeks' gestation by ultrasound. Routine ultrasound examination at 30 weeks' gestation by primary obstetrician showed a cyst on the fetal abdomen. Initially, the suspected diagnosis was a mesenteric cyst. Subsequent ultrasound examination at weeks 32, 36 showed a fetal retroperitoneal cyst. A 3....

OBJECTIVE To describe a successful pregnancy after a change in configuration of the endometrial cavity after magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) for leiomyomas. DESIGN Case report. SETTING University hospital. PATIENT A 40-year-old woman with known leiomyomas and a history of secondary infertility. INTERVENTION Magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ...

BACKGROUND Purpose of this study was to identify predictors of vaginal ulcer after CT based three-dimensional image-guided high-dose-rate interstitial brachytherapy (HDR-ISBT) for gynecologic malignancies. METHODS Records were reviewed for 44 female (14 with primary disease and 30 with recurrence) with gynecological malignancies treated with HDR-ISBT with or without external beam radiation th...

A 31-year-old lady presented with abnormal vaginal bleeding during her first trimester of pregnancy. Based on the ultrasound findings and decreasing hCG trend (from 1040 mIU/mL to 759 mIU/mL), a diagnosis missed miscarriage was made. week later, patient heavy bleeding. Ultrasound showed classic snowstorm appearance suggestive complete hydatidiform mole. The serum level however, 357 mIU/mL. In c...

An 89 year old woman had a two-month history of vaginal bleeding. Vaginal ultrasound examination showed an expanded endometrium. An outpatient endometrial biopsy was performed, which showed a moderately differentiated grade 2 endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested that the tumour was minimally invasive and confined to the uterus (Fig. 1). The woman had lim...

BACKGROUND Pregnant women commonly present to the Emergency Department (ED) for evaluation during their first trimester. These women have many concerns, one of which is the viability of their pregnancy and the probability of miscarriage. STUDY OBJECTIVES We sought to determine fetal outcomes of women with an indeterminate ultrasound who present to the ED during the first trimester of pregnanc...

Creation of a scale analogous to the Bishop's (BS) based on transvaginal ultrasound. Assessment reproducibility and repeatability individual parameters correlation with corresponding axes BS. 116 patients in third trimester pregnancy had ultrasound examination assessment five selected BS (vaginal-cervical angle [VCA], dilatation assessed by 3D [DL], progression [AoP], strain elastography softwa...
