Pilot study establishing a nomogram of yolk sac growth during the first trimester of pregnancy.

Aim: The yolk sac (YS) has been reported as a reliable predictor of adverse pregnancy outcomes, however, it has always been evaluated cross-sectionally with a single ultrasound per patient. We sought to validate the use of YS dimensions in serial ultrasounds throughout the first 10 weeks of singleton and multiple gestations.

Simple vs complex urethral diverticulum: presentation and outcomes.

Objective: To determine whether complex anatomic configurations of urethral diverticula (UD), namely circumferential UD (cUD), present differently or confer a worse prognosis as compared with simple UD (sUD).
