Intrauterine Growth

Two case histories of severe, early onset intrauterine growth retardation are presented. Intravenous prostacyclin was administered in an attempt to promote fetal growth and thus prolong the pregnancy, but was unsuccessful and resulted in intrauterine death in each case. The possible reasons for the failure of this treatment and alternative therapeutic options are discussed.

Tract Infections

‘Leptotrichia amnionii’ is an underestimated fastidious inhabitant of the vaginal flora that can cause upper genital tract infections when predisposing factors are present. We describe here what is believed to be the first reported case of early onset meningitis due to ‘L. amnionii’ in a neonate with intrauterine growth retardation. The outcome was favourable after cefotaxime treatment.

Nitric Oxide Deficiency

The data of domestic and foreign literature on etiology, pathogenesis and intrauterine growth retardation diagnosis are presented in the paper. It highlights pathogenetic role of nitric oxide deficiency in case of obstetric complications and intrauterine growth retardation. Key words: intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), system L-arginin–NO, obstetric complications.
