Fetal hematometrocolpos is a rare finding with an incidence of 1 in 16,000 female births. Timely diagnosis enables clinicians to formulate an appropriate management plan for the newborn. We present a case of fetal hematometrocolpos managed exclusively by prenatal and postnatal ultrasound scans allowing for effective immediate postnatal surgical treatment.

Prenatal Genetic Diagnosis

Abstract Background Prenatal diagnosis of congenital ichthyosis is still a challenge and very few cases of sonographic diagnosis have been described in the literature. Diagnosis by fetal ultrasound is made from the late second trimester and prenatal genetic diagnosis can be possible only if a proband is known. Case presentation We report the case of a prenatal diagnosis of severe non-syndromic ichthyosis in a primigravida woman with no personal or family history for this pathology. Conclusion Our case outlines prenatal sonographic signs suggestive of ichthyosis orienting genetic diagnosis.

The case of prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of Meckel’s diverticulum at 26 weeks of gestation is presented. A detailed fetal ultrasound examination identified anechoic, ovoid, fluid-containing structure in the right lower hemiabdomen, 39  14  15 mm in size. A healthy male was born by spontaneous vaginal delivery at 41 weeks of gestation. A successful postnatal laparotomy on the 11th postnatal day was performed and prenatal diagnosis was confirmed.

ABSTRACT The influence of early androgen treatment, light deprivation (by blinding), pinealectomy and superior cervical ganglionectomy on the reproductive system of female rats was tested. Early postnatal treatment of rats with testosterone propionate caused adult rats to exhibit the characteristic signs of androgen sterilization; these included polyfollicular ovaries, normal-sized uteri and persistent vaginal cornification. If early androgentreated rats also were blinded the ovaries were smaller in size and contained fewer follicles, the uteri were greatly reduced in size and the incidence of vaginal oestrus was decreased by approximately 50% If in addition to blinding, androgen-sterilized animals were subjected to either removal of the pineal gland or superior cervical ganglia, the reproductive organs and the vaginal smears were indistinguishable from those of testosterone-treated rats with eyes. These data indicate that the inhibitory influence of blinding on the pituitary-ovarian axis was mediated through the sympathetic nervous system and the pineal gland. The restraining influence of light deprivation on the growth of the reproductive organs was not permanent as illustrated by the fact that if these animals were kept to 120 days of age the ovaries and uteri grew to the same level as those of pinealectomized control rats.
