Uterine fibroids are common among women of reproductive age. During the pregnancy, the potential complications of fibroids, although rare, are of frequent clinical concern. Available studies describing management and obstetrical outcomes in pregnant women with giant fibroids are limited. We present the case of a 39-year-old pregnant woman with multiple and large uterine fibroids. During the pregnancy, there was adequate fetal development, without major maternal complications. Given the characteristics of the fibroids and breech position of the fetus, an elective caesarean section was decided, and postpartum hysterectomy planned. This challenging obstetrical case required a multidisciplinary approach.We considered crucial discussing five main issues: preconceptional counselling, tailored pregnancy surveillance, decision of time and route of delivery, decision to perform a peripartum hysterectomy and management of decreasing blood loss perioperatively. Given the limitation of the published reports, we believe that sharing our experience, along with a literature review, is beneficial for other clinicians.

This study aimed to compare the histological changes in the neonatal kidney after their mothers exposed to different doses of silver nanoparticles colloidal solution (AgNPs) during the three stages of pregnancy. Pregnant Swiss albino mice (n=60) were randomly divided into three treated groups. They were intraperitoneally injected with AgNPs for 7 days during each stage of the gestational period. The newborn mice were sacrificed immediately after the birth, and the kidneys were being collected for histopathological analysis. The results showed that the AgNPs caused histological changes in the neonatal kidneys; vacuolation of some renal vesicles and cortical tubules, cystic tubular dilation, glomerular tuft shrinkage, and focal tubular necrosis in the first week-dose exposed pregnant. Disintegrating of immature glomeruli, distention of Bowman’s space of mature glomeruli, tubular necrosis, loss of renal parenchyma, medullar tubules containing hyaline casts, and subcapsular haemorrhage in the second week-dose exposed pregnant. Massive hypercellularity in the deeper part of the renal cortex, cortical and medullary tubules dilation, atrophy of subcapsular immature tubules, cortical cyst formation, glomerular tuft necrosis, dilation of Bowman’s space with evidence of crescent formation, and medullar portion replaced by scant loose connective tissue containing few numbers of tubules the third week-dose exposed pregnant. The results showed that the AgNPs has more negative effects on the kidney development at the third week-high dose and comparing the histological changes in the neonatal kidney were appeared in a time-depended manner and in a dosedepended manner. More researches must be carried out to obtain better understanding of AgNPs toxicity on fetal development and its ability as a teratogenic agent to induce external and internal abnormalities in the fetus.
