Partial midgut agenesis in a premature neonate: A case report and literature review of small bowel agenesis.

Introduction And Importance: Small bowel agenesis (SBA) is a rare congenital abnormality characterized by the absence of part or all of the small intestine, leading to significant disruptions in nutrient absorption. While hereditary factors are suspected to contribute, the precise etiology of SBA remains largely unknown. Prenatal ultrasonography is typically used for diagnosis, but postnatal diagnosis can be based on clinical signs such as vomiting, abdominal distension, and poor growth.

Intrauterine Limb Ischemia in Patient Heterozygous for the 677C>T) RS1801133 (Polymorphism of Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase MTHR Gene.

Background: Intrauterine arterial thrombosis is extremely rare. Multiple inherited coagulopathies were found to be associated with thrombophilia and an increased risk of intrauterine arterial thrombosis. Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase MTHFR (C667T) polymorphism was found to be associated with mild hyper-homocysteinemia, which, in turn, can promote thrombotic complications.
