AI Article Synopsis
- Preeclampsia is a serious pregnancy-related condition characterized by high blood pressure, which can negatively impact fetal development.
- It can lead to short-term issues for the fetus and long-term complications for newborns due to impaired blood flow during critical developmental stages.
- The case presented involves a preterm baby who is small for their age, experiencing severe growth issues and gastrointestinal problems, born to a mother suffering from severe preeclampsia.
Article Abstract
Preeclampsia is a human-specific hypertensive disorder of gestation. It is associated with short-term adverse effects in the fetus and long-term complications in the neonate, mainly due to disrupted blood flow during critical periods of intrauterine development. An ischemic event in the uterus can affect many systems of the fetus, including a small bowel involvement. We present a case of a preterm, small for gestational age neonate with severe intrauterine growth restriction, small bowel stenosis, and volvulus without malrotation, born to a mother with severe preeclampsia.
