Objective null To develop a standardized sonographic evaluation and reporting system for a cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) in the first trimester for both general gynecology and expert clinic. null Methods null A modified Delphi procedure. Twenty-eight experts in obstetrics and gynecology ultrasonography were invited to participate. Extensive experience in the use of ultrasound to evaluate cesarean section scars in early pregnancy and/or publications concerning CSP or niche evaluation was required...
Objectives null Automatic selection and segmentation of the slice of minimal hiatal dimensions (SMHD) in transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) volumes. null Methods null The SMHD was manually selected and the urogenital hiatus (UH) segmented in TPUS volumes of 116 women with symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse (POP). These data were used to train two deep learning algorithms: the first one provides an estimation of the position of the SMHD. Based on this estimation a slice is selected and fed into the s...
Objectives null Improvements in the antenatal diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) would allow preparations for delivery in centers of excellence, leading to decreased maternal mortality and severe morbidity. Our objectives were to assess the performance of classic ultrasound signs and to determine the value of novel signs in the detection of PAS. null Methods null Cases of second trimester placenta previa who also had third trimester vaginal ultrasound, and all cases of PAS, at seven me...

OBJECTIVES Preeclampsia causes substantial maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. In addition to a personal impact on women, children and their families, preeclampsia has a significant economic impact on our society. Recent research suggests that a first trimester multivariate model is highly predictive of preterm (<37 weeks' gestation) preeclampsia and can be successfully combined with targeted prophylaxis (low dose aspirin) with 80% reduction in prevalence of disease. We examined the p...

Objective Selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR) complicating twin to twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is associated with 3 to 6 fold increased risk of fetal demise after fetoscopic laser surgery (FLS). Identifying these patients is challenging due to varying definitions used in the literature. Our objective was to determine the association of three currently used definitions for sFGR with demise of the smaller twin, typically the donor, following FLS METHODS: Retrospective cohort of monochor...

OBJECTIVE Monochorionic pregnancies complicated by twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) and treated with fetoscopic laser photocoagulation (FLP) can be associated with neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI). This meta-analysis aimed to identify the prevalence and risk factors of NDI among TTTS survivors after FLP. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus and Web of Science, from the inception of the database until 13th February 2021. Data regarding the severity of TTTS at the time of diagnosis (...
