Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal management to prevent postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in hemophilia carriers. We aimed to evaluate peripartum management strategies in relation to maternal and neonatal bleeding outcomes by performing an extensive database search up to August 2020. Seventeen case-reports/series and 11 cohort studies were identified of overall 'poor' quality describing 502 deliveries. The PPH incidence in the individual patient data was 63%; 44% for those women receiving prophylaxis to correct coagulation and 77% for those without (OR 0.23, CI 0.09-0.58) and in cohort data 20.3% (26.8% (11/41) vs. 19.4% (55/284) (OR: 1.53, 95% CI: 0.72-3.24), respectively. Peripartum management strategies mostly consisted of clotting factor concentrates, rarely of desmopressin or plasma. Tranexamic acid appears promising in preventing secondary PPH, but was not used consistently. Neonatal bleeding was described in 6 affected male neonates, mostly after instrumental delivery or emergency CS, but insufficient information was provided to reliably investigate neonatal outcome in relation to management. The high PPH risk seems apparent, at most mildly attenuated by prophylactic treatment. Prospective cohort studies are needed to determine the optimal perinatal management in hemophilia.

Background: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in neonates (MIS-N) is a rare condition thought to be associated with prenatal exposure to maternal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. This immune-mediated hyperinflammation has been described in neonates with multiorgan dysfunction, including cardiopulmonary, encephalopathy, coagulopathy, and vascular complications. However, renovascular complications in MIS-N are rare.

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, New York; Division of Health Services Policy and Practice, Department of Epidemiology and Environmental Health, School of Public Health and Health Professions, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, New York.

Background: Earlier evidence indicated that metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) may adversely affect neonatal outcomes among patients conceiving soon after MBS, but recent studies demonstrated conflicting results, especially for new surgical techniques.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of MBS types and surgery to birth interval on maternal, birth, and nonbirth outcomes in women with severe obesity.

Setting: New York State's all-payer hospital discharge database (2008-2019).

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA. Electronic address:

Pulmonary hypertensive changes are commonly seen by the surgical pathologist, but the majority represents secondary changes due to some process extrinsic to the lung. Some primary, or idiopathic, vascular diseases result in unique pathologic changes including the plexiform lesion and venous hypertensive changes. Thromboembolic disease also shows unique pathologic features.
