Doppler parameters of the maternal hepatic artery blood flow in normal pregnancy: maternal hepatic artery blood flow in normal pregnancy.

Objective: Objective of our study was to evaluate changes in Doppler resistance indices in the common hepatic artery during normal pregnancy.

Study Design: Cross-sectional study included 210 healthy pregnant women gestational age 6-40 weeks, 40 healthy non-pregnant women and 30 women after delivery. We divided all pregnant women by pregnancy trimester.

Pre-operative differentiation of pediatric ovarian tumors: morphological scoring system and tumor markers.

Objective: To investigate the importance of morphological scoring systems in differentiation of ovarian tumors in childhood.

Methods: Morphological assessment using DePriest's index was performed for all patients with histopathological confirmation of ovarian tumor, with evaluation of tumor markers, from January 1997.

Results: Fifty-three girls (age range 13 months to 19 years) were surgically treated for 59 ovarian tumors, including six bilateral.

Rapidly growing bilateral ovarian cystadenoma in a 6-year-old girl: case report and literature review.

Case: We report a case of a 6-year-old, premenarchal girl, previously healthy, with frequent micturition lasting 3 days prior to the first examination, without discomfort or pain.
