AI Article Synopsis

  • Two cases of prenatal diagnosis of inguinal hernia are discussed, highlighting the fetal outcomes.
  • Initial considerations included other conditions like sacrococcygeal teratoma and testicular teratoma.
  • The final diagnosis was confirmed as scrotal-inguinal hernia through ultrasound, which showed bowel movement in the scrotal mass.

Article Abstract

We present two cases of a prenatal diagnosis of inguinal hernia and the fetal outcome. Initial differential diagnosis included sacrococcygeal teratoma and testicular termatoma, while the final diagnosis was scrotal-inguinal hernia based on sonographic visualization of bowel loop movement in the scrotal mass.

This research aimed to estimate the direct costs and analyze the epidemiological aspects of ambulatory care-sensitive conditions (ACSC) in children under one year of age, São Paulo municipality, 2011-2022. Total and average costs were calculated according to ACSC diagnosis groups by components (early neonatal, late neonatal, and post-neonatal). The trend in ACSC rates was analyzed using Prais-Winsten generalized linear regression.

Background: Whole exome sequencing (WES) technology has been increasingly used for the etiological diagnosis of fetuses with ultrasound anomalies. In this article, we report a novel deletion compound combined with a causative variant in gene leading to short-rib thoracic dysplasia 7 (SRTD7) with or without polydactyly using WES.

Methods: This study involved a Chinese fetus with clinical features of skeletal dysplasia on ultrasound imaging, in whom chromosome abnormalities and copy number variants (CNVs) were detected by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and sequence variants were detected by WES.

Background: Left-right (LR) asymmetry disorders present a complex etiology, with genetic factors emerging as a primary contributor. This study aims to explore the genetic underpinnings of chromosomal variants and individual genes in fetuses afflicted with prenatal LR asymmetry disorder.

Methods: Through a retrospective analysis conducted between 2020 and 2023 at Tongji Hospital, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, genetic outcomes of LR asymmetric disorder were scrutinized utilizing copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and whole exome sequencing (WES) methodologies.
