Abstract

Objective To investigate pregnancy outcome for fetuses with nuchal translucency (NT) ≥3.5 mm but normal karyotype in the Stockholm (Sweden) area. Methods A retrospective population-based cohort study. From 2006 to 2012, fetal NT was measured in 55123 singleton pregnancies. There were 341 pregnancies with NT thickness ≥3.5 mm; 139 had a normal karyotype, 164 had an abnormal karyotype and 38 were removed from the study. Pregnancy outcome was defined as adverse (termination of pregnancy [TOP], miscarriage [MC], intrauterine fetal death [IUFD], or delivery of a child with structural defects or genetic disorders), or favourable (delivery of a child without any structural defects or genetic disorders diagnosed before discharge). Results Of the 139 high NT pregnancies with normal karyotype, 110 (79.2%) resulted in live births, one (0.7%) IUFD, 23 (16.5%) TOP and five (3.6%) MC. The risk of an adverse pregnancy outcome increased with increasing NT. Structural fetal defects were found in 28 (19.5%) of pregnancies undergoing second trimester ultrasound screening, of which seven resulted in live births and 21 were terminated. The most common structural defect was cardiac defects. Conclusions Adverse pregnancy outcome increased with increasing NT, even with normal karyotype, however, the prognosis is good if the second trimester ultrasound screening is normal.

23. Cytokines in Fetal Blood and Amniotic Fluid in RhImmunized Pregnancies

Author

WESTGREN, MAGNUS, EK, SVERKER, REMBERGER, MATS, RINGDEN, OLLE, and STANGENBERG, MANGUS

Abstract

To determine fetal serum and amniotic fluid (AF) levels of interleukin (IL)-3, IL-6, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, stem cell factor, and erythropoietin, and to explore the relationship between cytokines and hemoglobin concentration, white blood cell count (WBC), and platelet count in fetuses affected by Rh immunization.

Abstract

Invasive fetal therapy  Invasive fetal therapy in Sweden consists of fetoscopic interventions to treat twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTS) or twin anemia polycytemia sequence (TAPS) in monochorionic twin or triplet pregnancies and for selective reduction in monochorionic twins complicated by discordant anomalies or severe growth retardation in one fetus. Alternative methods, such as intrafetal laser ablation and radio frequency ablation, are also used for selective reduction and rarely to treat fetal tumors. Ultrasound guided intrauterine blood transfusions to treat fetal anemia have been performed for a long time with excellent results. Placement of thoraco-amniotic shunts and vesico-amniotic shunts is indicated in a few cases per year in Sweden. Since these rare interventions were centralized to one national center in 2013, the outcome of the fetal interventions has improved consistently.
