Background: Structural changes during lactation make breast physical examination difficult. When breast problems occur, patients are often referred for an ultrasound (US) scan. Most breast lesions diagnosed in these patients are benign, but the diagnosis of breast cancer is a challenge.

Fetuses with suspected cardiac aneurysms on ultrasound (US) screening should undergo targeted fetal echocardiography, postnatal imaging, and follow-ups. Herein, we describe the second trimester US scan and postnatal cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of a baby girl with concurrent septal and right ventricular cardiac aneurysms.

Subjects And Methods: The study included 36 patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent anorectal MR imaging in our department between September 2011-May 2016. Two radiologists experienced in abdominal radiology viewed the MR images in consensus.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated risk factors, pregnancy outcomes, and follow-up challenges associated with isolated single umbilical artery cases in a Turkish population, highlighting potential ethnic influences.
- Findings revealed a significantly higher incidence of small for gestational age (SGA) fetuses and hypertensive disorders in pregnancies with a single umbilical artery, with maternal smoking identified as an independent risk factor.
- Preterm birth rates and cesarean delivery rates due to non-reassuring fetal heart patterns were not significantly different between the study and control groups, suggesting early diagnosis and monitoring are crucial.
Objective: To assess the possible changes in first trimester screening test parameters in pregnancies complicated with placenta previa and to determine whether there is an association between hyperemesis gravidarum and placenta previa.
Material And Methods: A total of 131 singleton spontaneously conceived pregnancies that were complicated by placenta previa and delivered between May 2006 and May 2013 were evaluated from birth charts. Ninety patients without placenta previa were selected amongst patients who delivered within the same period of time as the control group.
