Methodology: It was a six-months’ case-control study involving 117 parturients whose babies presented with a nuchal cord at delivery. The study was carried out at the Yaoundé Gyneco-Obstetric and Pediatric Hospital, Cameroon, from January 1st to June 30th 2013. Results: The risk factors of clinical birth asphyxia identified were: first delivery, absence of obstetrical ultrasound during pregnancy, nuchal cord with more than one loop, duration of second stage of labor more than 30 minutes during vaginal delivery. The risk factors for newborn death from clinical birth asphyxia in the presence of nuchal cord were: maternal age Conclusion: We recommend a systematic obstetrical ultrasound before labor, so as to detect the presence of a nuchal cord, its tightness and the number of loops. Also, cesarean section should be considered when a nuchal cord is associated with first delivery, tightness or multiple looping.展开更多

Methods: A retrospective population-based study of all deliveries during the years 2011-2020 in Philippe Maguilen SENGHOR Center was conducted. Perinatal outcome of patients with and without nuchal cord was compared. Results: Among 44,958 deliveries during the study period, 1.8% had a nuchal cord, documented at birth (n = 807). Higher rates of labor induction (9.1% vs. 3.2%;p 0.001) and non-reassuring fetal heart rate patterns (RR = 2.366;CI: 1.631 - 3.432) were noted among pregnancies with nuchal cord as compared with the control group. The cesarean delivery rate was significantly higher among pregnancies with a nuchal cord (39.5% vs. 21.8%;RR = 2333;CI: 2.023 - 2.692). Although 5 min Apgar scores lower than 7 were more common in pregnancies with a nuchal cord (7.8% vs. 3.8%;RR = 2.117;CI: 1.629 - 3.363). There was no statistical significance between the two groups for the perinatal mortality. Conclusion: Nuchal cord is associated with prolonged labor and adverse perinatal outcome.展开更多
文摘目的 分析46,XX睾丸型性发育异常胎儿的基因型与表型,并进行文献复习。方法 1例超声提示胎儿颈后透明层增厚的孕妇来我院产前诊断中心咨询。因其符合产前诊断指征,遂行胎儿染色体核型检测、胎儿染色体基因芯片检测。以“46,XX男性综合征”、“产前诊断”、“46,XX睾丸型性发育异常”、“prenatal diagnosis”、“46,XX male syndrome”、“46,XX testicular disorder of sex development”为检索词,检索中国知网、万方数据库、PubMed数据库(建库至2023年2月底),选取产前诊断为46,XX睾丸型性发育异常胎儿且临床资料完整的文献进行复习并总结胎儿表型。结果 胎儿染色体核型正常(46,XX),基因芯片提示Yp11.31-p11.2区域拷贝数为1,大小为3299 kb,存在SRY基因,胎儿被诊断为46,XX睾丸型性发育异常。文献检索发现仅报道9例产前诊断为46,XX睾丸型发育异常(SRY基因阳性)胎儿,大部分(70%, 7/10)胎儿孕期无明显异常,其中3/10的胎儿存在结构异常或超声提示NT增厚,其中5/10孕妇存在高龄风险。结论 在产前诊断中,发现46,XX睾丸型性发育异常胎儿是极为罕见的。孕期46,XX睾丸型性发育异常胎儿无明显异常;由于CMA检测的局限性,部分46,XX睾丸型DSD胎儿(SRY基因阴性)会被漏诊,这些因素给产前诊断和遗传咨询带来极大的挑战。
