  El onfalocele se define como un defecto congénito de la pared abdominal por fallo en la fusión de los pliegues del disco embrionario y, como consecuencia, el contenido intraabdominal se encuentra herniado; esto debe estar cubierto por peritoneo, gelatina de Wharton, amnios, centrado en el orificio umbilical con el cordón, originándose del ápex del mismo; la incidencia es de 1 de cada 5000 recién nacidos vivos. Con la intención de describir un caso atípico, se presenta el de una paciente gestante de 35 años de edad, Gesta: IV, Cesáreas: II, Abortos: I y 13/08/2013 como fecha de última menstruación. La paciente fue atendida en la Unidad Ecográfica de Alto Riesgo del Hospital Central Pedro Emilio Carillo (Trujillo, Venezuela), por presentar onfalocele gigante; se sometió a cirugía con los diagnósticos preoperatorios siguientes: 1) embarazo simple de 35 semanas y 2 días por biometría fetal; 2) pródromo de trabajo de parto; 3) onfalocele gigante; y 4) útero cicatrizal. Se le practicó cesárea corporal, histerectomía total con conservación de anexos. El recién nacido vivo presentó onfalocele gigante. Se evidenció placenta previa oclusiva más acretismo placentario, por lo que en el presente trabajo se pretende explicar la importancia del diagnóstico temprano y manejo terapéutico, así como la posible relación entre el onfalocele y placenta acreta a propósito de este caso.   Palabras clave: Bolsa de Bogotá, cordón umbilical, acretismo placentario, pentalogía de Cantrell, síndrome de Beckwith-Wiedemann.   Abstract Omphalocele is defined as a congenital defect of the abdominal wall due to failure in the fusion of the folds of the embryonic disc and, as a consequence, the intra-abdominal content is herniated; this must be covered by peritoneum, Wharton's jelly, amnion, centered in the umbilical orifice with the cord, originating from the apex thereof; the incidence is 1 in 5 000 live newborns. With the intention of describing an atypical case, that of a 35-year-old pregnant woman, Gesta: IV, Caesarean section: II, Abortion: I, and 08/13/2013 as the date of the last menstruation, is presented. The patient was treated at the High Risk Ultrasound Unit of the Pedro Emilio Carillo Central Hospital (Trujillo, Venezuela), for presenting a giant omphalocele; she underwent surgery with the following preoperative diagnoses: 1) simple 35-week and 2-day pregnancy by fetal biometry; 2) labor prodrome; 3) giant omphalocele; and 4) scar uterus. Body caesarean section was performed, total hysterectomy with preservation of annexes. The live newborn had a giant omphalocele. The occlusive placenta prae plus placental accretion was evidenced, therefore, in this work we try to explain the importance of early diagnosis and therapeutic management, as well as the possible relationship between omphalocele and placenta accreta in this case.   Keywords: Bogota bag, umbilical cord, placental accreta, pentalogy of Cantrell, Beckwith Wiedemann syndrome.

A female infant born at 41+6 weeks via emergency caesarean section due to failure to progress and maternal sepsis was found to have a small fibrous band connecting the upper and lower eyelids of the right eye. This was diagnosed as ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum. The child was investigated for multisystemic malformations by the paediatric department, but none were found, and the partially fused right eyelid was dissected using microsurgical scissors to allow full opening of the eye. We summarise the management of a rare oculoplastic disorder.

Background: All over the world the rate of caesarean section is increasing dayby day due to multiple factors and Pakistan is no exception to it. According to World HealthOrganization (WHO) the rate of caesarean section varies from 5% to 15%. This rate of C-sectionis acceptable to WHO and is considered as justifiable which differs from country to country dueto diverse socio economic conditions, literacy rate, medico legal issues as well as availabilitiesof health care facilities to patients and especially antenatal facilities. Objectives: To analyzethe rate and indications of caesarean section in primigravida. Study Design: Descriptive study.Setting: Government Sardar Begum Hospital Sialkot. Period: 1st January 2017 to 31st December2017. Materials and Methods: Inclusion and exclusion criteria were made and all patients whichunderwent caesarean section were included in the study and all patients delivered vaginally wereexcluded from the study. A proforma was designed specially to record the different parameters/information of patients and indications of c-section. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 22.Results: Total caesarean section rate was 40 %, out of which 30.87% were Primigravida and69.13% were multigravida. Failure to progress was the most common indication and only in0.47% patients, obstructed labour was an indication of C-section. Conclusion: In primigravidawomen the prevalence of Caesarean Section is increased which also lead to enhance repeatcaesarean section chances and it is not free of risk. It is risk factor for placenta pervia, further,repeat caesarean section adherent morbidly placenta which increased the chances of hugePPH and acute maternal morbidity and mortality.

Caesarean section (CS) rates have been increasing worldwide and have caused concerns. For meaningful comparisons to be made World Health Organization recommends the use of the Ten-Group Robson classification as the global standard for assessing CS rates. 2625 women who birthed over a 12-month period were analysed using this classification. Women with previous CS (group 5) comprised 10.9% of the overall 23.5% CS rate. Women with one previous CS who did not attempt VBAC contributed 5.3% of the overall 23.5% CS rate. Second largest contributor was singleton nulliparous women with cephalic presentation at term (5.1% of the total 23.5%). Induction of labour was associated with higher CS rate (groups 1 and 3) (24.5% versus 11.9% and 6.2% versus 2.6%, resp.). For postdates IOL we recommend a gatekeeper booking system to minimise these being performed <41 weeks. We suggest setting up dedicated VBAC clinic to support for women with one previous CS. Furthermore review of definition of failure to progress in labour not only may lower CS rates in groups 1 and 2a but also would reduce the size of group 5 in the future.

Objective: To determine the frequency and types of vaginal delivery in womenwith previous one caesarean section and to observe the effect of women age on success ofvaginal birth. Method: A descriptive study was carried out in the department of obstetrics& gynecology, Ziauddin University Hospital Kemari campus Karachi from January 2011 toJanuary 2013. 200 patients with previous one caesarean section for a non recurrent cause wereincluded in the study after fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The women selectedwere evaluated and counseled for trial of labor. The frequency and mode of vaginal delivery wasrecorded in cases of successful trial of labor and caesarean section was performed in case offailed trial of labor. Results: Successful vaginal delivery was achieved in 67% of the patients andrepeat emergency caesarean section was carried out in 33% of the patients. Leading indicationfor repeat caesarean section was failure to progress, fetal distress and scar tenderness. Nomaternal and fetal complication occurred. We also observed that patients of less than 30 yearswere more likely to have a successful vaginal delivery (82%) as compared to patients older than30 years (18%). Conclusions: The trial of labor should be encouraged with vigilant monitoringin patients with previous one Caesarean section and is a safe and successful option if carefullyselected and monitored.
