Giant ovarian mucinous cystadenoma complicating term pregnancy: a rare case report.
Ann Med Surg (Lond)
November 2024
Introduction: Adnexal masses in pregnancy are identified at a rate of 2 to 20 in 1000, which mostly are benign simple cysts. Although the majority of adnexal masses will resolve spontaneously by the beginning of the second trimester, some cases are persistent forms which can result in complications for both mother and fetus.
Presentation Of Case: A 31-year-old pregnant woman was diagnosed with a left ovarian mucinous cystadenoma.
Article Synopsis
- - Hypertension during pregnancy complicates 5%-10% of pregnancies and significantly contributes to maternal and perinatal health issues, especially in low- and middle-income countries, but few studies focus on these outcomes.
- - A cohort study conducted in Vietnam with 255 women diagnosed with hypertensive disorders revealed high rates of adverse outcomes, including preterm delivery in over 60% of cases, with common complications being HELLP syndrome and placental abruption.
- - Factors such as highest diastolic blood pressure, symptom severity, and birth weight were identified as independent predictors of adverse outcomes, emphasizing the need for monitoring and intervention in women with hypertension during pregnancy.
The O/W emulsions were prepared using perilla seed oil (PSO) dispersed in soy sauce (PSE) and in distilled water (PWE), respectively. Octenyl succinic anhydride-modified starch (OSA starch, 3 wt%) showed the most efficient emulsifying ability and its stabilities of emulsion and oxidation in PSE and PWE were studied at different storage periods (0, 4, and 8 weeks) and temperatures (4, 25, and 40 °C). Negligible change in droplet diameter of PSE was observed without coalescence or flocculation during storing for 8 weeks at 4 °C.
