It is characterized by the proliferation of abnormal smooth muscle-like cells, leading to cystic lung destruction, accumulation of chylous fluid, and development of abdominal tumors.

Article Synopsis
  • Mesenteric cystic lymphangiomas are rare, benign growths in the lymphatic system of the abdomen, mainly affecting about 1 in 250,000 people.
  • Symptoms can range from not having any symptoms to severe abdominal pain, and diagnosis often involves imaging techniques like ultrasound or CT scans.
  • In a case study of an 11-year-old girl, she underwent surgery to remove a confirmed cystic lymphangioma, highlighting the need to consider this condition in younger patients with abdominal masses.

Article Synopsis
  • 4q35 deletion is a rare chromosomal syndrome that presents a variety of fetal phenotypes and can be hard to detect via prenatal ultrasound.
  • A study followed four fetuses with this deletion, observing conditions like fetal growth restriction, cystic hygroma, and others, noting one termination and three live births showing no major issues at one year.
  • The findings suggest that while the phenotypes are diverse, fetal growth restriction is a potentially significant characteristic of 4q35 deletion cases.

Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of chromosomal anomalies in fetuses affected by increased nuchal translucency(iNT >99Th centile), cystic hygroma (CH) and cases progressing to fetal hydrops (NIHF) in order to correlate this result to prognosis and perinatal fetal outcomes, improving patient's counseling.

Methods: From January 2020 to December 2023, first trimester screening according to FMF criteria were performed in "Maternal fetal medicine Unit" of Foggia's hospital. We studied and collected clinical data of fetuses affected by nuchal translucency >99th centile (iNT), CH and cases progressing to Fetal Hydrops (non-immune fetal hydrop, NIFH).
