Cystic hygromas are characterized by single or multiple cysts within soft tissue. They may occur in isolation or may be associated with other congenital malformations and can lead to obstructed labour or neonatal asphyxia. Ultrasonography in the prenatal period can be carried out to diagnose congenital cystic hygromas. Keywords: ultrasonography, cystic hygroma       doi:10.3126/njog.v2i1.1478 N. J. Obstet.

Lymphangiomas or cystic hygromas are relatively uncommon congenital malformations of the lymphatic system which usually present in the first years of childhood. Presentation in adult life is rare. We present a case of cervical adult cystic hygroma and discuss radiological and histopathological features as well as the management of these neck masses.

Oblique facial clefts (Tessier Clefts) are severe orofacial clefts beyond the lip and palate that count among the rare congenital malformations “with an incidence of 1.43 to 4.85 per 100,000 births.”1,2 The Tessier Classification System devised by Paul Tessier in 1976 assigned specific caudo-cranial numbers to clefts involving the “soft tissue and underlying bones of the mouth, maxilla, nose, eyes, and forehead” in relation to the sagittal midline of the face.1,3,4 The midline is designated 0 – 14, and adjacent clefts are numbered 1-13, 2-12 and so on, depending on the location and axis of the malformation. We present a patient with a bilateral Tessier 5 cleft.

The article presents the experience of treatment of newborn children and infants with congenital malformations of the lung and mediastinum, which required a surgery. Children (138 cases) were treated during recent 18 years. There was a prevalence of full-term infants (73%). Fetal malformations were diagnosed in prenatal period in majority of cases. Computed tomography was the main method of diagnostics after delivery. Children (110 cases) were operated out of 138. Children with extrapulmonary sequestration didn’t undergo surgery in case of absence of clinical manifestations. The authors made a conclusion that malformations of the lung and mediastinum should be included in number of differentiated diseases in case of respiratory distress syndrome in newborn children. The indications to early surgery should be the danger of contamination and malignant transformation, presence of intrathoracic tension syndrome in neonatal period.

Four dogs were presented with thoracic limb deformity. After clinical and radiographic examinations, a diagnosis of congenital malformations was performed for each of them. In one case, a deformity involving both the radial and ulnar side of the distal limb was observed. Based on clinical and radiological evaluations, a diagnosis of postaxial terminal longitudinal ulnar hemimelia was performed. The term ectrodactyly was used to refer different malformations characterized by skin and soft tissue separation of the distal forelimb observed in two dogs. Simple complete uncomplicated syndactyly of the right forelimb, and complex incomplete uncomplicated syndactyly of the left forelimb were diagnosed in the fourth case. To the authors’ knowledge, ectrodactyly and simple complete uncomplicated syndactyly are very uncommon anomalies in companion animals and have been rarely documented. Moreover, postaxial terminal longitudinal ulnar hemimelia has still not been reported in dogs.

Cystic renal disease is rare in dogs and although infected renal cysts have been reported in humans, no report could be found in dogs. A 58 kg, 5-year-old, castrated, male Boerboel presented with weight loss, pyrexia, lethargy and vomiting, 20 months after an incident of haematuria was reported. The initial ultrasonographic diagnosis was bilateral multiple renal cysts of unknown aetiology. The cysts had significantly increased in size over the 20-month period and some contained echogenic specks which could be related to infection, normal cellular debris or haemorrhage. In both kidneys the renal contours were distorted (the left more than the right). The abnormal shape of the left kidney was largely due to multiple cysts and a large crescent-shaped septate mass on the cranial pole of the kidney. Aspirates of the septate mass were performed (left kidney) and the cytology and culture were indicative of an abscess. It is suggested that the previous incident of haematuria provided a portal of entry for bacteria into the cysts resulting in renal cortical abscess formation.
