Abstract Purpose To describe the postnatal outcome of fetal meconium peritonitis and identify prenatal predictors of neonatal surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all fetuses with ultrasound findings suspicious for meconium peritonitis at a single center over a 10-year period. A systematic review and meta-analysis were then performed pooling our results with previous studies assessing prenatally diagnosed meconium peritonitis and postnatal outcome. Prenatal sonographic findings were analyzed to identify predictors for postnatal surgery. Results 34 cases suggestive of meconium peritonitis were diagnosed at our center. These were pooled with cases from 14 other studies yielding a total of 244 cases. Postnatal abdominal surgery was required in two thirds of case (66.5 %). The strongest predictor of neonatal surgery was meconium pseudocyst (OR [95 % CI] 6.75 [2.53–18.01]), followed by bowel dilation (OR [95 % CI] 4.17 [1.93–9.05]) and ascites (OR [95 % CI] 2.57 [1.07–5.24]). The most common cause of intestinal perforation and meconium peritonitis, found in 52.2 % of the cases, was small bowel atresia. Cystic fibrosis was diagnosed in 9.8 % of cases. Short-term neonatal outcomes were favorable, with a post-operative mortality rate of 8.1 % and a survival rate of 100 % in neonates not requiring surgery. Conclusion Meconium pseudocysts, bowel dilation, and ascites are prenatal predictors of neonatal surgery in cases of meconium peritonitis. Fetuses with these findings should be delivered in centers with pediatric surgery services. Though the prognosis is favorable, cystic fibrosis complicates postnatal outcomes.

Objective. To evaluate the pre- and postnatal outcomes of euploid fetuses with aplasia/hypoplasia of the nasal bones (NB). Methods. We have made the catamnestic monitoring of children with a normal karyotype, who had been prenatally detected NB aplasia or hypoplasia (less than 5 perentile) at 11–24 weeks of gestation at ultrasound screening in the period between 2006–2015 years. Our study included a selection of 242 fetuses with NB aplasia or hypoplasia, in 128 (52.8 %) of them the NB was not visualized or appeared as an echogenic dot only. Results. Among all 63 fetuses with NB aplasia (absence or looks as an echogenic dot) in the 1st trimester in 24 (38 %) cases chromosomal abnormalities (CA) were found (including T21 — 15 (62.5 %) cases). Other 39 (61.9 %) fetuses had a normal karyotype. Among 65 fetuses with NB aplasia, examined in the 2nd trimester of gestation 12 (18.4 %) cases of CA were detected (one fetus with T21 had the only one ultrasound marker – isolated NB aplasia), 53 (81.5 %) fetuses had a normal karyotype. 62 mothers of the euploid fetuses with NB aplasia had been surveyed. We have received and analyzed 31 (50 %) responses. In 16 cases of euploid fetuses with NB, aplasia pregnancy outcome was adverse or relatively unfavorable, only 5 (31.2 %) fetuses of them had isolated NB aplasia. In other cases healthy full-term infants were born, who showed normal height and weight indexes, physical and psychomotor development observed in age from 0 to 10. Conclusion. In 51.6 % fetuses and children prenatally had aplasia of the nasal bone was marked by unfavorable pre- or postnatal outcome, according to the survey of their mothers.
