Introduction: Heterotopic pregnancy is a rare form of pregnancy, defined by the coexistence of an ectopic and an intrauterine pregnancy. The diagnosis of heterotopic pregnancy remains one of the greatest challenges of the gynecological-obstetrical emergencies.
Case Presentation: We report a rare case of spontaneous heterotopic pregnancy of a 28-year-old woman, diagnosed with a heterotopic pregnancy by ultrasound and treated by laparotomy in emergency obstetrical department of Ibn Rochd University Hospital of Casablanca.
Fetal biometry and amniotic fluid volume assessments are two essential yet repetitive tasks in fetal ultrasound screening scans, aiding in the detection of potentially life-threatening conditions. However, these assessment methods can occasionally yield unreliable results. Advances in deep learning have opened up new avenues for automated measurements in fetal ultrasound, demonstrating human-level performance in various fetal ultrasound tasks.

Introduction: Pregnancy is a physiological state whose association with any pathology gives it specific characteristics in the management of patients. Meningioma is the most frequent brain tumor but rarely develops during pregnancy. Treatment of the tumor generally follows the same principle as that proposed outside pregnancy, with priority given to the mother's life.

Presentation Of Case: We report a rare case of a young patient admitted with a Torsion of paratubal cyst mimicking ovarian torsion, the positive diagnosis was difficult.

Introduction: The transverse vaginal septum is a rare anomaly of the müllerian ducts whose pathophysiology is linked to a defect in the resorption of the embryological tissue located between the vaginal dome and the caudal terminal part of the fused müllerian ducts.
Case Presentation: We report a rare case of a permeable transverse vaginal septum in a 41-year-old patient, who consulted for cyclic pelvic pain.
Discussion: The vaginal septum is a rare anomaly of the Müllerian ducts whose approximate frequency is around 1/70,000 women.
Introduction: Pubic joint enlargement of more than 10 mm is diagnosed and defined as diastasis of the pubic symphysis and is considered a complication of vaginal delivery or pregnancy. As it is a rare pathology.
Case Presentation: We report a patient with severe pelvic pain with impotence of the left IM at day 1 of a dystocic delivery.
Introduction And Importance: Twin pregnancy combining a complete mole and a normal fetal pregnancy with its own healthy trophoblast is a rare entity. A partial molar pregnancy almost always ends in miscarriage due to a triploid fetus.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 43-year-old female patient admitted for bleeding during the 20th week of pregnancy.
Introduction And Importance: Atypical pre-eclampsia cases are those that develop before 20 weeks of gestation and after 48 h after delivery and or have some of the signs and symptoms of preeclampsia without the usual hypertension or proteinuria which make them difficult to diagnose.
Case Presentation: Our aim is to report a case of atypical preeclampsia (before week 20 of gestation) associated with a HELLP syndrome and analyze the clinical features of atypical forms, assess differential diagnosis and highlight the progress in biochemical and biophysical markers that may help with diagnosis.
Clinical Discussion: Severe early pre-eclampsia (before 32 weeks of pregnancy) is associated with a risk of maternal mortality 20 times higher than after 37 weeks, and a higher risk of perinatal complications.
• Adnexal torsion during pregnancy is a rare surgical emergency. • The diagnosis of certainty of adnexal torsion can only be made intraoperatively. • In the absence of any contraindication, laparoscopy should be the preferred approach.

We report a case of this syndrome diagnosed antenatally in a 37-year-old primiparous woman, by a first obstetrical ultrasound performed at 22 weeks of amenorrhea and one day. After termination of pregnancy, macroscopic examination revealed a male newborn with all the diagnostic criteria of LBWC.

Cases Presentation: The authors report 2 cases of uterine AVM post suction-curettage procedure on molar pregnancy incidentally discovered in ultrasound screening in the usual follow-up of this disease, diagnosed in the Department of Maternity of Mother and Child University Hospital Abderrahim Harouchi of Casablanca.
Amniotic band syndrome is a rare disorder, which consists of a combination of malformations in which the main feature is the existence of an amniotic band that can envelop the limbs, the body wall, and/or the viscera. We report a case of an antenatal diagnosis of amniotic band syndrome in a 21-year-old female patient at 20 SA + 1 day, who had a medical abortion.

The diagnosis and management of ovarian cancer in pregnancy remain poorly codified because of the rarity of cases and the limited data available on this pathology. We report here the case of a 45-year-old woman with a large ovarian mucinous adenocarcinoma diagnosed during pregnancy, identified by ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging.

Introduction: Primary non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma (NHML) of the uterine body is an extremely rare localization since only eleven cases have been reported in the literature.
Case Presentation: We report a case of primary NHML of the uterine body discovered during a hysterectomy performed for a uterine mass. The primary character of NHML of the uterine body was retained in view of the absence of extra-genital localization in the clinical, biological and radiological workup (Ann Arbor stage IE) and there were no signs of recurrence during follow-up.
