Peritoneal inclusion cysts in an adolescent female: A case report and review of the literature.

Several studies have shown that most peritoneal inclusion cysts (PIC) cases occur almost exclusively in women of childbearing age and patients who have had abdominal or pelvic surgery. We report a case of PIC diagnosed in a 19 years old single adolescent female with chronic pelvic pain and secondary amenorrhea with no prior history of abdominal surgery. A multilocular abnormality in the pelvis and a septated pelvic fluid encompassing the ovaries and extending to the right iliac fossa was revealed by ultrasound images and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), respectively.

Gestational diabetes mellitus: maternal and perinatal outcomes in 220 saudi women.

Methods: The outcome of pregnancy in 220 Saudi patients with GDM identified from the delivery register/hospital database and matched for age, parity and body mass index with 220 non-diabetic controls were studied retrospectively from their case files. Patients with multiple pregnancies and abnormal presentation of the fetus were excluded from the study.

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura in pregnancy: a reappraisal of obstetric management and outcome.

Study Design: A retrospective analysis of 38 singleton pregnancies, their course, obstetric management and perinatal outcome of 32 patients with known ITP was undertaken.

Results: No major antenatal complications were noted among the patients.

Ovarian tumors in children and adolescents--a clinical study of 52 patients in a university hospital.

Ovarian tumors associated with pregnancy: a 20-year experience in a teaching hospital.

Objective: Pregnancy associated with ovarian tumors was reviewed over a 20-year period to determine the maternal and fetal outcome in patients undergoing surgery during pregnancy.

Method: A retrospective study of 94 cases of ovarian tumors treated surgically during pregnancy was investigated for incidence, clinico-pathological features and outcome in a teaching hospital between June 1987 and May 2007.

Results: The overall incidence of ovarian tumor in pregnant women was 1 in 505 (0.

Preterm singleton breech delivery in a teaching hospital of saudi arabia: vaginal versus cesarean delivery.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of singleton preterm breech babies born in a teaching hospital, and to study the influence of the mode of delivery on perinatal outcome in preterm births with breech presentation.

Methods: A retrospective analysis from the medical records of patients who had preterm singleton breech delivery (24 - 36 weeks gestation) was undertaken in a tertiary care hospital in the Eastern province of Saudi Arabia between January 1992 and December 2001. All the patients with intrauterine fetal death, multiple pregnancies and lethal congenital fetal malformations were excluded from the study.
