Teratogenicity01:07

Teratogenicity

The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Interventional Radiology

Background:

  • Uterine fibroids (leiomyomas) are common benign tumors in the female reproductive system.
  • Pregnancy can be complicated by uterine fibroids, necessitating careful management strategies.

Observation:

  • A high-risk pregnancy was managed with a 18 cm uterine fibroid diagnosed during gestation.
  • Delivery was performed via cesarean section at 34 weeks gestation.

Findings:

  • Interventional radiology was crucial, employing bilateral internal iliac artery balloons.
  • This intervention significantly minimized blood loss and surgical complications.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates the critical role of interventional radiology in managing complex fibroid pregnancies.
  • It informs decisions on maternal-fetal risks, delivery timing, and fibroid management during pregnancy.
