  • Cesarea scar hysterotomy. Assessment by 3D Transvaginal-Echography
    The Ultrasound Review of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2004
    Co-Authors: J. M. Troyano, M. T. Clavijo, S Casas, I. Martínez-wallin, O. Y. Marco, A Zurita
    Abstract:

    Hysterotomy-made scars are a key factor for assessing further gestations in the same patient and so need to be monitored from the early puerperium through a whole year period following surgery. Other monitoring factors involve placenta previa, placenta acreta, ectopic cervical gestation, or uterus tearing both on parturition and at rest. Bidimensional (2D) Transvaginal Echography has proved a successful method in the detection of scar failures of the myometrium early in the puerperal period and afterwards, or in routine echographic exploration. Furthermore, tridimensional (3D) Echography facilitates the monitoring of hysterotomy-made scars whereby total areas and depths of healed versus failing myometrium tissue can be quantified. The combined study of 2D and 3D echographic records may be useful to diagnose wound dehiscence from hysterotomy and to forecast the welfare of future gestations. In that respect, irregular cicatrization patterns can be identified from the early puerperium over the whole postpart...

  • early diagnosis of embryo fetal malformations by Transvaginal Echography in a high risk population
    Minerva ginecologica, 1997
    Co-Authors: P Rosati, Lorenzo Guariglia
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND High resolution Transvaginal sonography permits, in respect of traditional transabdominal scan, an earlier diagnosis of some fetal anomalies and malformations. METHODS In our prospective study, between 11th to 16th weeks gestation, 820 pregnant patients at high risk for chromosomopathies and for fetal malformations were scanned in order to obtain a detailed survey of embryofetal structures and organs and an earlier diagnosis of fetal malformations. RESULTS Thirty-two fetal anomalies and malformations (3.9%) were detected, and in 4 cases (0.49%) the diagnosis was obtained later in pregnancy. Fetuses with structural malformations were scanned during pregnancy and, if possible, postnatally. We reconsidered the pitfalls in relation to the time of Transvaginal scan and the fetal pathology. CONCLUSIONS En early prenatal diagnosis of fetal anomalies by Transvaginal sonography is related to the knowledge of normal embryofetal development and the pathogenesis of malformations.

  • embryo fetal ultrasonographic diagnosis in the early pregnancy using Transvaginal Echography
    Minerva ginecologica, 1997
    Co-Authors: Lorenzo Guariglia, P Rosati
    Abstract:

    The diagnostic capability of high resolution Transvaginal sonography in early pregnancy is described. Transvaginal sonography allows for the visualisation of some fetal organs and structures one to four weeks earlier than transabdominal ultrasound thus permitting evaluation of several embryofetal parameters early in pregnancy. This technique permits formulation of fetal measurement charts and detection of embryo-fetal malformations during the initial stages of pregnancy. Knowledge of the Transvaginal sonographic appearance of embryonal and fetal biometric and structural anatomy enables us to determine the appearance of the normal fetus. Transvaginal scan may be employed as a screening tool for the identification of fetal anomalies in early stages of pregnancy. An increasing number of case reports and documented records of cases of malformations and anomalies diagnosed during the first trimester of pregnancy using this technique have been reported in the literature. The most frequent embryo-fetal malformations and anomalies detected at Transvaginal scan and the earliest gestational age of diagnosis are described. At present a limited number of anomalies can be diagnosed because only a part of the potentially recognizable anomalies have been described using this technique. The importance of this new imaging technique as well as the necessity of a through knowledge of embryology are evident. Transvaginal sonography allows for biometric evaluation, for a clearer visualization of embryo-fetal morphology and for detection of several malformations and anomalies during early pregnancy.

  • evaluation of endometrial carcinoma using hysteroscopy and Transvaginal Echography
    Tumori, 2003
    Co-Authors: Marco Guida, S Bramante, G Acunzo, G Lavitola, Stefania Sparice, G Cerrota, Carmine Nappi
    Abstract:

    Objective To compare Transvaginal ultrasound and hysteroscopy in the diagnosis of endometrial cancer in women with postmenopausal bleeding. Methods Sixty postmenopausal women with abnormal uterin bleeding underwent to Transvaginal ultrasound, hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy. Results USG and hysteroscopy demonstrate respectively a sensitivity of 96% and 90%, specificity of 88% and 94%, positive predictive value of 86% and 92% and negative predictive value of 92% and 96% and accuracy of 89% and 94%. Conclusions The accuracy of hysteroscopy is significantly higher than Transvaginal sonography for the detection of endometrial cancer.
