Although the incidence of Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis is grossly reduced in Indian subcontinent, it occupies a greater segment among heart diseases complicating pregnancy. A 25 years old lady, who was not known as a case of valvular heart disease, was admitted in a secondary level hospital for emergency lower segment caesarean section. The patient developed severe pulmonary oedema during operation which was managed successfully.

 Endometriosis is defined by the presence and growth of ectopic functional endometrial tissue outside the uterus. The symptoms are nonspecific, typically involving abdominal wall pain at the time of menstruation. It commonly follows obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. The diagnosis is frequently made only after excision of scar the diseased tissue. A case report of 34 year old female patient presenting with scar endometriosis 7 years after her last LSCS (lower segment caesarean section). The patient came with the complaint of supra pubic swelling since 6 months, which was growing slowly. Her menstrual history was regular, but she had lower abdominal pain during menstruation. On clinical history, examination and USG finding the swelling was diagnosed as scar endometriosis.

Scar endometriosis is an infrequent type of extrapelvic endometriosis that is rather close together with obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. It is mostly confused with other dermatological or surgical conditions and delays the diagnosis. We report a case of a 50-year-old woman presenting with scar endometriosis 23 years after her last lower segment caesarean section. The epidemiology, diagnosis, pathogenesis, and treatment of the situation are discussed.

Abstract Achondroplasia is a common form of dwarfism occurring in one out of 25,000 of live births. These patients present many problems during pregnancy and at the time of the delivery. The anaesthetist may also face several difficulties for both general and regional anaesthesia. The aim of this case report is to discuss various obstetric and anaesthetic considerations in such patients and ways to manage the difficulties. A 29-year-old woman expecting her first child, with achondroplasia —height of just 3’2’’ (98 centimetres) — at 31 weeks of gestation, presented to our OPD for antenatal visit on May 15, 2018. Her successful elective lower segment caesarean section was performed on June 25, 2018 at 37 weeks in view of contracted pelvis under general anaesthesia. Continuous...

Uterovesical fistula is an abnormal communication between uterine cavity and the bladder. It is a rare type of fistula accounting for four percent of all cases of urogenital fistula. However the incidence of uterovesical fistula has been rising due to increasing incidence of lower segment caesarean section. Uterovesical fistula is seen more after repeated caesarean section rather than primary section. This is a case report of a primipara with uterovesical fistula following primary emergency Caesarean section on her 12th postoperative day for foetal distress. She was managed conservatively using IV antibiotics and catheterization for six weeks.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jkmc.v2i4.11799Journal of Kathmandu Medical CollegeVol. 2, No. 4, Issue 6, Oct.-Dec., 2013Page: 211-213

Objective: To determine the causes of high foetal head and their relative frequencies in primigravidae presenting at term and to determine the proportion of these patients undergoing lower segment caesarean section or vaginal delivery. Design: A descriptive study.Place and duration of study: The study was carried out at Mugda Medical College Hospital from March 2017 to June 2017.Materials and Methods: A total of 50 primigravidae patients presenting at term and having a single pregnancy were randomly selected. On the basis of history, Physical examination and abdominal ultrasonography, patients having a high foetal head were recognized and their causes documented.Results: Out of 50 primigravidae, with high foetal head there was foetal malpresentation 17(34%), Cephalopelvic disproportion 13(26%) , Foetal distress 12(24%). Lower segment caesarian section was the management of choice in more than half of the patients with high foetal head.Conclusions: Foetal malpresentation & Cephalopelvic disproportion were the major cause of high foetal head in this study and lower segment Caesarean section was the mode of delivery in more than half of the patients with high foetal head.J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 26, No.2, October, 2017, Page 122-125
