The authors describe a case of high venous thrombosis with floating clots at the 37th week of pregnancy. The problem of diagnosis was solved by urgent Doppler examination and by phlebograms of the legs. It is necessary to have a team of many disciplines that can be brought together at any time. These consist of: -an anaesthesist who can resuscitate with heparin and give obstetrical anaesthesia, -an obstetrician who can carry out caesarean sections, -a vascular surgeon who can carry out a partial block of the inferior vena cava. This would appear only to be possible in a special centre.

Background And Objectives: Research to identify fetal predictors of infant mortality among singletons born in the United States (US) concludes that poorly understood and unmeasured "confounders" produce a spurious association between fetal size and infant death. We argue that these confounders include Vanishing Twin Syndrome (VTS)-the clinical manifestation of selection against frail male twins . We test our argument in 276 monthly conception cohorts conceived in the US from January 1995 through December 2017.

This study examined the influence of epidural, spinal, and general anesthesia on DDI, surgical and postoperative complications, and neonatal outcomes. : This prospective cohort study at a tertiary perinatology center enrolled parturient women undergoing category 2 and 3 cesarean deliveries.

The continuous improvement in the quality of modern perinatology, sociodemographic changes and the increasing spread of reproductive medicine have resulted in an increasing number of premature infants to be treated. The treatment of preterm infants (< 37th week of pregnancy) and especially extremely premature infants (< 28th week of pregnancy) is challenging due to immature organ development, which differs considerably from that of other age groups. While the fate of premature infants and especially extremely premature infants was unfavorable 100 years ago, the survival of premature infants > 1000 g has now shifted to survival in over 80% of cases [30].
