hydrops fetalis/경색증

We report a case of a large chorioangioma diagnosed prenatally with concomitant meconium peritonitis and hydrops fetalis in the second trimester. Spontaneous regression of the tumor occurred, associated with some resolution of the fetal hydrops and delivery near term with good neonatal outcome.

A rare complication of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is described: myocardial infarction of the recipient fetus. Myocardial infarction and hydrops are considered to be consequences of hypertension in the recipient. No other organs were affected. Pathological signs of intrauterine

ABSTRACT Aorto-left ventricular tunnel (ALVT) is a rare congenital heart anomaly of unclear pathogenesis causing left ventricular volume overload. Most descriptions are from surgical corrections in the neonatal and infantile period, and little is known about ALVT in utero. Here we describe a case of

Objectives: With improved access to intrauterine transfusion (IUT), more fetuses with haemoglobin Bart's hydrops fetalis (HBHF; homozygous α⁰-thalassaemia) will survive. Design:

Fetal tachycardia and signs of hydrops fetalis were diagnosed at 29 weeks of gestation. The heart rate normalized by combined treatment with digoxin and flecainide and was followed by improvement of the hydrops. Premature labor led to delivery at 33 weeks of gestation. The newborn infant showed mild

Cardiovascular abnormalities are associated with hydrops fetalis in 26% of cases reported in the modern era. These include not only structural abnormalities, but also cardiac arrhythmias, failure, tumors, myopathy, infection, inflammation, infarction, and arterial calcification. Cardiac structural

Four pregnant women, aged 29, 32, 36 and 36 years, respectively, were diagnosed with Human parvovirus B19 (B19V) infection. Only the first woman had exanthema and fever. In the first three cases, the source of infection appeared to be another child; two of these children were infected during a

We report a case of prenatally diagnosed intracranial hemorrhage and hydrops in the fetus of a mother with a past history of surgical and medical treatment for gastric lymphoma and having high platelet counts thereafter. To the best of our knowledge, such a complication of maternal thrombocythemia

Two cases of nonimmune hydrops fetalis and fetal death associated with cardiac rhabdomyoma are reported. Case 1 presented with fetal supraventricular tachycardia, and cardiac rhabdomyoma was accurately diagnosed by fetal echocardiography. Autopsy revealed multiple rhabdomyomata involving the right

Idiopathic infantile arterial calcification (IIAC) is a rare disorder characterized by extensive calcification of medium and large arteries. We report the case of a 32-week-old infant with hydrops fetalis and heart failure who died at 4 days of age. At autopsy the infant was found to have
