Fetal third trimester growth was positively associated with increasing maternal BMI, height, and pre-existing diabetes mellitus, and was negatively associated with maternal smoking. No significant association between fetal growth and maternal parity or gestational diabetes mellitus was detected when adjustments were made for gestational age and the other maternal characteristics.

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the existence and magnitude of decrease in neurodevelopmental scores in SGA and FGR infants born at term from a systematic review of the existing literature. Methods: Studies of neurodevelopment in SGA/FGR babies were identified from a search of the internet scientific databases. Studies which included preterm births and those that did not define absolute indices of standardised cognitive outcome were excluded. SGA was defined as birthweight below the 10(th) centile fo...

The fact that the standard deviations were lower than other studies may be explained by using the average of two measurements, crown rump length dating or motivation of the locally trained sonographers.

The image obtained in Panel B summarizes the anatomical situation. It is easy to measure the smallest distance between the multiplanar central point, in the middle of the os, and the edge of the placenta, which appears as a line. The multiplanar view contains three images from which it is simple to observe the measurement mistakes that can be made with 2D. It is now possible to define quality criteria for this measurement. 3D measurement standardization should make it possible to define more relevant cut-offs for determining management.

Voluntary squeezing elongated the anal canal and increased the angle compared with the direction of the vagina.

Although these injuries were first described using Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 3D transperineal and endovaginal ultrasound has emerged as a more readily available and economic alternative to identify LAM morphology. Injury to the LAM is attributed to vaginal delivery resulting in reduced pelvic floor muscle strength, enlargement of the vaginal hiatus and pelvic organ prolapse. There is inconclusive evidence to support an association between LAM injuries and stress urinary incontinence and there seems to be a trend towards development of faecal incontinence.

Incremental first trimester CRL growth with time is rapid, but second trimester FL growth is much less so leaving this lateral measurement more prone to both observer and machine/probe errors. The only axial growth measurement commonly performed is BPD where the measurement differences were intermediate between those of CRL and FL. The differences that can be ascribed to different equipment combinations are in many cases greater than those expected in clinical practice and are of potential importance in determining how fetal biometry is used in dating pregnancies.

Growth retardation is an additional contributor to the reduced thymic size in these fetuses. Trisomy 21 fetuses seem to have additional triggers for a small thymus which could be a possible confirmation of reduced immune response observed in fetuses and neonates with Down syndrome.

Blake's pouch cyst and megacisterna magna are a risk factor for associated anomalies but when isolated have an excellent prognosis, with a high probability of intrauterine resolution and a normal intellectual development in almost all cases. Conversely, Dandy-Walker malformation and vermian hypoplasia even when they appear isolated antenatally have an abnormal outcome in half of the cases. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG.

Moreover, ultrasound-guidance is less costly than laparoscopic-guidance and adds no additional cost over hysteroscopy alone.

METHODS: We searched the MEDLINE database from Jan 1990 to May 2011 for randomized and the cohort studies reporting on the risk of pregnancy loss after first trimester CVS performed between 9-14 weeks and genetic amniocentesis between 14-22 weeks. Where appropriate, we have calculated pooled proportions and relative risks with 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS: No randomized studies were found. For CVS, nine studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The overall pregnancy loss rate was 3.84% (CI(95) 2.48% to 5.47%; n = 4). The rate of pregnancy loss before 20 weeks was...

Furthermore, we have found that BPC can undergo delayed fenestration at 24-26 weeks in more than 50% of the cases. Finally, we have demonstrated that BPC shows a significant risk of association with extra-cardiac anomalies (heart defects in particular) and, to a lesser extent, to trisomy 21.

While we may often be using different words for the same phenomenon (such as 'anismus'/ 'vaginismus'), or attribute different meanings to the same words (e.g. 'rectocele'), we look after patients presenting with problems that transcend the borders of our respective specialties.

The findings are limited by the small number of studies and patients, the age of the studies, inclusion of symptomatic and asymptomatic women and variable reference standards for diagnosis of early pregnancy demise.

The sonographic findings were bilateral pleural effusion, ascites and skin edema. A large right sided diaphragmatic tumor was identified. Due to ultrasound findings and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) a solid malignant tumor was suspected. The pleural effusions were drained and malignant cells were identified. Due to rapid tumor progression a female hydropic newborn was delivered by caesarean section at 34 + 0 weeks of gestation. There was no sign of metastatic disease. Postnatally a tumor biopsy revealed an alveolar rhabdomyosarcom (RMS). The therapy included chemotherapy and secondary surgical intervention.

In CDH fetuses with effusions and severe pulmonary hypoplasia treated by FETO, neonatal survival is similar as in isolated cases undergoing the intervention. Whether pleural effusions should be addressed by thoracic drainage procedures remains unproven. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

These concepts raise the possibility that early ultrasound markers predictive of adverse pregnancy outcome could be identified. In this review we assess the role of ultrasound in predicting the likelihood of different pregnancy outcomes and highlight potential novel markers that could be tested. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG.

In these cases, ultrasonography demonstrated only a hyperechoic mass on the left lower lung and the diaphragm seemed intact. PS may serve as a 'protector', preventing herniation of abdominal contents into the thoracic cavity. Thus, both lungs were well preserved throughout the pregnancy. The co-occurrence of CDH may be obscured by a lung mass, especially on the left lower lung, therefore it is necessary to deliver these infants at tertiary center and parents should be counseled about the possibility of postnatal CDH.

The methodology of gynecological cancer staging, including assessment of local tumor extent, lymph nodes and distant metastases, is described. With increased technical quality, sonography has become an accurate staging method for early and advanced gynecological tumors. Other complementary imaging techniques, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, can be used as an adjunct to ultrasound in specific cases, but are not essential to tumor staging if sonography is performed by a specialist in gynecological oncology. Ultrasound is established as the method of choice for evaluating local extent...

No safe cutoff exists for MSD growth below which a viable pregnancy could be safely excluded. A cutoff value for CRL growth of 0.2 mm/day was always associated with miscarriage. These data suggest that criteria to diagnose miscarriage based on growth in MSD and CRL are potentially unsafe. Moreover, finding an empty gestation sac on two scans more than 7 days apart is highly likely to be a miscarriage, irrespective of growth. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

These can include scar pregnancy, a morbidly adherent placenta, scar dehiscence or rupture. To date there is uncertainty relating to the factors that lead to poor scar healing and how to recognize it.

A short time later, at the 21th week, other signs of overload with worsening heart failure as the typical triphasic waves in the Inferior Vena cava disappeared, and showed a biphasic profile appeared. The second twin at that time had relative oligohydrramnions. A few days later relative polyhydramnios and edema of the same fetal placental side were also noted at the recipient twin. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report describing this hepatic sonographic pattern as early sonographic sign of TTTS. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG.

None of the unification defects reduces fertility but some are associated with miscarriage and preterm delivery. Arcuate uteri are specifically associated with second trimester miscarriage. All uterine anomalies increase the chance of fetal malpresentation at delivery. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Although risk of IUFD is higher in MC than DC after 24 weeks' gestation, women's chance of having two live infants one month after delivery levels out between MC and DC, if both fetuses are alive at 24 weeks.

When measured in the exact median plane and care is taken in excluding the frontal bone, 3D measurements of the NBL are systematically smaller than in previous 2D ultrasound based publications.

Prenatal (T1, T2, T2* and diffusion weighted sequences) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to rule out a hematoma. Follow-up examination by ultrasound and MRI revealed a significant increase in the volume of the mass, suggesting a diagnosis of malignant tumor. A healthy neonate was delivered by Cesarean section at 38 weeks of gestation. Full surgical excision of the tumor was performed at 20 days after delivery and histological analysis revealed a papilloma. Copyright © 2011 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
