<p><strong>Objective: </strong>Related factors and treatment strategies of premature rupture of membranes (PROM) were discussed. <strong>Method: </strong>Retrospective analysis of 182 cases of preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) from Yanshan County Hospital from January 2010 to October 2015. <strong>Results</strong><strong>: </strong>From the 182 cases [123 vaginal delivery and 59 cesarean section (C-section)], there were 79.12% PROM cases were detected in the presence of risk factors. Neonatal mortality and complications were significantly higher at 28−33 + 6 weeks of pregnancy than those at 34−36 + 6 weeks, 28−33 + 6 weeks, and 34−36 + 6 weeks. <strong>Conclusion: </strong>In order to improve the survival rate of newborns, the related factors leading to PPROM should be treated.</p>

Objective. This study aimed to clarify the effects of cesarean delivery on neonatal respiratory morbidity when women had preterm premature rupture of membranes. Methods. This retrospective study included women with preterm premature rupture of membranes who delivered from 23 weeks to 33 weeks of gestation between January 2009 and December 2014. Neonatal outcomes were compared between infants delivered by cesarean section and those delivered vaginally. The primary outcome was respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Neonatal intubation and mechanical ventilation periods were secondary outcomes. Propensity score matching was used to compare outcomes between cesarean and vaginal delivery cases. Results. There were 101 cesarean deliveries and 89 vaginal deliveries. A comparison of the presence or absence of neonatal complications based on the delivery type indicated a higher occurrence of RDS with cesarean deliveries (P=0.025). The intubation and mechanical ventilation periods were not significantly longer in neonates delivered via cesarean section. Conclusions. Cesarean delivery is a risk factor for neonatal RDS in women with preterm premature rupture of membranes. Trials identifying long-term neonatal prognoses are needed to further develop optimal management strategies in such cases.

AbstractFetal head entrapment by a uterine scar or adhesion is a rare obstetric complication. We present a case of a uterine constriction diagnosed in pregnancy that resulted in confinement of the fetal head to the lower uterine segment. The developing fetus ultimately suffered growth restriction of the head and was delivered after the mother experienced preterm premature rupture of membranes (PROM). Severe adhesions of the lower uterine segment were confirmed during the patient’s classical cesarean section.
