Prenatal diagnosis

要旨

Objective:

This study aimed to evaluate the perinatal outcome of fetal abdominal cysts based on the timing of prenatal diagnosis and identify prenatal characteristics associated with postnatal surgical intervention.

Methods:

Fetuses with prenatally detected isolated abdominal cysts referred between January 2007 and December 2022 were included. Fetuses with multiple congenital anomalies or cysts suspected of renal or spinal origin were excluded.

Results:

Among the 253 included cases, 67.6% (171/253) of the abdominal cysts regressed spontaneously either prenatally or postnatally. Persistent cysts were observed during postnatal follow-up in 28.9% (73/253) and in 3.6% (9/253) the suspected abdominal cyst was reclassified as another anomaly during postnatal follow-up. Two cases of a transient cyst diagnosed in the first trimester required surgical intervention postpartum. Surgical intervention was performed in 16.2%. Multivariate analysis showed that prenatal cysts > 40 mm were strongly associated with surgical intervention (OR 10.25, 95% CI 4.08-25.74). Diagnosis before 16 weeks (OR 5.03, 95% CI 1.04-24.42) and between 16 and 24 weeks (OR 6.42, 95% CI 2.49-16.51) was also linked to higher odds of surgery compared with diagnosis after 24 weeks, whereas gender showed no significant association.

Conclusion:

Isolated fetal abdominal cysts have a good prognosis with a high rate of spontaneous regression (67.6%) and a low rate of surgical intervention (16.2%). However, especially first trimester cysts carry a significant risk of persistent lesions necessitating surgical intervention for which follow-up is recommended, even when prenatal regression is suspected.

Parental Care

Parental Care

Many animals exhibit parental care behavior, including feeding, grooming, and protecting young offspring. Parental care is universal in mammals and birds, which often have young that are born relatively helpless. Several species of insects and fish, as well as some amphibians, also care for their young.

Parenting Styles

Parenting Styles

Diana Baumrind's four parenting styles — authoritarian, authoritative, neglectful, and permissive — each influence children's socio-emotional development differently.
Authoritarian Parenting
This style is strict and controlling, with little room for open dialogue. Authoritarian parents demand obedience and often enforce rules with minimal warmth. Children raised this way may lack social skills and initiative, usually comparing themselves to others unfavorably.

Relationship with Parents: Attachment

Relationship with Parents: Attachment

Parent-child interactions lay the foundation for how we understand relationships throughout life. These interactions are not uniform across families; instead, they are shaped by a range of environmental, emotional, and behavioral factors unique to each caregiver-child dynamic. Social psychologists study these early relationships to understand how patterns formed in infancy influence social functioning and interpersonal behavior in adulthood.Attachment Theory and Early Relational ModelsJohn...

Abdominal Aorta

Abdominal Aorta

Once the aorta traverses the diaphragmatic plane at the aortic hiatus, it is known as the abdominal aorta. This anatomical structure is positioned leftward of the spinal column, encased within a cocoon of adipose tissue behind the peritoneal cavity. It terminates at the L4 vertebra, where it splits into the common iliac arteries. Prior to this bifurcation, the abdominal aorta gives rise to several vital branches.
The celiac trunk, a singular artery, divides into the left gastric artery, which...

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.
Parental Influence on Identity Development
Parents serve as primary guides and managers in an adolescent's life, offering support instrumental in decision-making and personal growth....

Fetal Circulation

Fetal Circulation

Fetal circulation is a unique system that facilitates the exchange of gases, nutrients, and waste products between the developing fetus and the mother. This intricate process takes place through a special organ called the placenta.
Two umbilical arteries transport blood from the fetus to the placenta. At the placenta, the blood absorbs oxygen and nutrients while simultaneously eliminating waste products. This oxygen-enriched and nutrient-rich blood then returns to the fetus through one...
