The incidence of dystocia in goats has been reported about 7% (Abdul-Rahman et al., 2000) to 8.23 % (Mehta et al., 2002). Fetal causes of dystocia are more common than maternal causes in goat (Abdul-Rahman et al., 2000) and sheep (Taha et al., 2005). Among dropsical conditions, the hydrallantois is more common compared to hydramnios (Hafez, 1993) and is frequently reported in bovines (having twins), rarely in mares (Milton et al., 1989) and less frequently in small ruminants. Hydrallantois is excessive accumulation of fluid in the allantoic sac in uterus, usually occurs within 5 to 20 days in advance pregnancy. Goats suffering from hydrallantois are usually presented in their second stage of labor with a history of sudden enlargement of the abdomen after mid gestation (Purohit, 2006). The present report documents a case of hydrallantois associated with fetal anasarca and its successful management in a non-descript doe.

A woman with a history of laparotomy and corrective abdominal surgery for acute puerperal uterine inversion reverted by division of the inversion ring anteriorly "Dobbins's operation" subsequently was successful to undergo assisted vaginal breech delivery arriving at second stage of labor warranting, manual removal of placenta which was complied with the management of PPH. This case is reported because of the rarity of uterine inversion itself in the first place. Next because of the conception taking place spontaneously after morbid puerperal period and then the pregnancy advancing to term: all the management beginning from correction of uterine inversion to retained placenta being handled in the same facility a rare event too in our set up. Key words: Uterine inversion and subsequent birth, manual removal of the placenta.      doi:10.3126/njog.v2i2.1462 N. J. Obstet. Gynaecol 2007 Nov-Dec; 2 (2): 78 - 80

Physical Care

Child birth is a very significant event in a married woman’s life. She is filled with fear and anxiety mixed with a feeling of joy and expectation of the coming child. Apart from physical care psychological care and assurance are equally important. Present study deals with the women of poor workers of the factories who have to undergo deliveries either at home or ill equipped hospitals causing much suffering and even mortality. Detailed history of such 250 women was taken in a questionnaire proforma prepared for the study. A history of age, caste, education, para, occupation, husband’s income and knowledge about pre and post-natal care was recorded. Thus 21 tables were made of each case and analyzed in detail. It is a practice to marry girls at an early age as they feel it ensures their safety. Husband’s income was quite low and 50% of them were uneducated. 30.8% could only read and only 8.8% were graduate. Illiteracy was a major problem in safe delivery of the child. Old traditional customs were followed some which were not hygienic. Only 19% were employed. Rest were only house wives. Ground delivery was preferred in 74% cases, squatting position in 71.2% and 56% preferred sand in place of mattress. All these are not preferred methods currently. In the second stage of labor birth canal was lubricated in only 8.8% cases. In 76% cases massage of abdomen was done to hasten the delivery. The cord was cut mainly by knife after delivery. Placentas were mainly buried after delivery (74.8%). 56% of women remained lying in for about a week after delivery. 78% mothers took their first bath 3 to 6 days after delivery.

This article provides a summary of a landmark study on labor, in a large, multicenter modern cohort of women with singleton, vertex gestations. Emanuel Friedman published his original labor curve showing the expected progression of normal labor in 1955, and that for multiparous patients in 1956.2,3 He plotted the individual labor progression of 500 nulliparous laboring women from a single center to calculate the average progression of labor. In his cohort, 70% of whom were between 20 and 30 years old, many were Caucasian, and 55% of women were delivered via forceps. Dr. Friedman classically identified the second stage of labor starting at 4cm dilatation. Since the mid-20th century, many practice patterns have changed, and today’s population of women delivering in the United States is diverse and, on average, older and heavier than in 1955; therefore, use of the traditional labor curve has been questioned. The investigators in this study performed a secondary analysis of data from a multicenter cohort of 26,838 patients with singleton gestation, spontaneous labor, and normal outcomes. Using a sophisticated statistical approach Zhang et al. produced a modern labor curve.

Cell Line Generation

B-lymphocytes normally synthesize small amounts of immunoglobulin, some of which is incorporated into the cell membrane where it serves as receptor of antigen. These cells, on contact with specific antigen, proliferate and differentiate to plasma cells which synthesize and secrete large quantities of immunoglobulin. The two stages of differentiation of this cell line (generation of B-lymphocytes and antigen-driven maturation to plasma cells) are clearly separable during ontogeny and in some immune deficiency diseases. The present report describes morphologic aberrations of B-lymphocytes in two diseases in which second stage differentiation is defective.

Abstract Background Locked twins is a rare and hazardous obstetric complication, which occurs in approximately 1:100 twin pregnancies. One of the known etiologic factors for locked twins is size of the twins. We report a case of chin-to-chin locked twins that occurred at gestational age of 30 weeks pus 6 days. Case summary A 27 years-old primigravida Oromo mother presented with a history of pushing down pain and passage of liquor of 6 hours duration at gestational age of 30 weeks plus 6 days. With a diagnosis of twin pregnancy (first twin non-vertex), abdominal delivery was decided in latent first stage of labor but mother refused caesarian delivery and she was allowed to labor with the hope of achieving a vaginal delivery. In second stage, interlocking twin was encountered and a low vertical cesarean section was done to effect delivery of twins without the need to decapitate the first twin. Conclusion Locked twin is a rare obstetric complication. Whenever it is encountered, successful delivery can be achieved without the need to have decapitation of the first twin during caesarian section.
