Introduction. Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is a clonal myeloproliferative neoplasm that occurs most commonly in the decade six of life and it is very rare in the young persons. Case report. We reported a 28-year-old female patient with primary myelofibrosis who had a normal pregnancy and delivery in the week 40 of pregnancy without any complications. Two years before the diagnosis of PMF she had normal pregnancy. The patient was treated with interferon-alpha and low dose aspirin during the whole pregnancy and with low-molecular-weight heparin a week before delivery and 6 weeks after. The patient had no complications during pregnancy. She delivered in term with healthy, normal baby weight. Conclusion. Decision about treatment strategy of pregnancy associated hematologic malignancies should be made for each patient individually.

The use of ulipristal acetate (UPA) has been recently introduced in the treatment of uterine leiomyomas. This drug has proven useful to control menometrorrhagia and to reduce myoma size. In the case presented here, we show the benefits of UPA treatment in facilitating surgical removal of giant myomas in an infertile patient. In addition to myoma reduction and a better control of preoperative bleeding, the treatment with UPA reduced the duration and complexity of the surgery, as well as the area of uterine wall involved and the resulting scar. No side effects were observed and the patient became pregnant 6 months after the surgery and had a normal pregnancy and delivery. This case report shows the beneficial effects of UPA in the preoperative treatment of myomas which affect uterus function.

Hemorrhage is one of the major causes of maternal death. Main causes of APH are placenta previa, placenta abruption and uterine rupture. Rare causes of placenta abruption include marginal and velamentous umbilical cord insertions. We hereby present a case of placenta abruption due to marginal umbilical cord insertions occurring on a bipartite placenta. A 40-year-old nulliparous African woman, 35 weeks pregnant consulted for dark red pervaginal bleeding, which occurred recently. Past history was unremarkable. Her pregnancy was well followed up. A recent ultrasound scan revealed a fundal inserted placenta. Physical examination revealed a fundal height of 37 cm, no uterine activity, normal fetal heart tones and a blood-stained vulva. Our diagnosis was a mild placenta abruption. An obstetrical ultrasound carried out revealed a normal pregnancy and a retroplacental blood clot of 11mm. A safe baby was born through an emergency cesarean section which revealed a normally inserted bipartite placenta with a 10% placenta detachment located on one placenta half and two cords inserted marginally. The postoperative period was uneventful and she was discharged five days after cesarean section. This case report shows that marginal cord insertion, which can lead to placenta abruption, can be also observed on a bipartite placenta.

Childhood obesity has become an important management problem for the practicing pediatrician. Carbohydrate restrictive diets are being utilized in treatment with increasing frequency in recent years.1,2 Hyperuricemia during carbohydrate deprivation is a well-documented entity in adults,3,4 but has not been reported in children. In the following report we describe a child who developed severe hyperunicemia following a low-carbohydrate ketogenic regimen during the initial period of treatment of obesity. CASE REPORT R. F., a 10-year-old white girl, was admitted to North Shore University Hospital for management of severe exogenous obesity.

We report a rare case of gastric cancer in pregnancy. A 26-year-old woman presented at the 20th week of pregnancy complaining of nausea and vomiting. Although the patient considered the condition to be related with pregnancy and underestimated its importance, her complaints persisted over the following weeks and she was hospitalized for investigation. The diagnostic workup revealed a metastatic gastric cancer. Gastric cancer is very rare in pregnancy, and therefore it may be left out of differential diagnosis by physicians. Diagnosis may be further delayed because of overlapping symptoms occurring during normal pregnancy (nausea, vomiting, and fatigue). All these factors may contribute to a very high mortality of this malignancy during pregnancy.

ABSTRACT Gestational trophoblastic disease encompasses a diverse group of lesions. If molar changes in the placenta are known along with an alive fetus, then situation is difficult for both obstetrician and parents. On one hand, there may be a normal pregnancy whereas on the other hand the mother may be threatened by numerous complications caused by the hydatid mole, if the pregnancy is continued. We present successfully managed case of partial molar pregnancy with an alive fetus at 1st stage of preterm labor with premature rupture of membranes with anemia with a live diploid female fetus with good neonatal out come. Follow-up till 1 year showed no progression to malignant gestational trophoblastic diseases. How to cite this article Rathod AD, Pajai SP, Gaddikeri A. Partial Mole with a Coexistent Viable Fetus—A Clinical Dilemma: A Case Report with Review of Literature. J South Asian Feder Obst Gynae 2014;6(1):51-55.
