RESUMO
Background: With the advancement of prenatal diagnosis technology, the detection rate of fetal abnormalities continues to increase, imposing a significant burden on both society and families. A retrospective analysis of essential information about pregnant women, such as their pregnancy history and delivery details, is crucial for understanding the primary factors that influence pregnancy outcomes in women with fetal abnormalities. This analysis is of great significance for improving the level of pregnancy management and outcomes in pregnant women with fetal abnormalities. Objective: To retrospectively analyze the pregnancy outcomes of women with fetal abnormalities and explore the factors that influence these outcomes. Methods: Pregnant women's pregnancy outcomes were collected from the medical information system and through telephone follow-ups. The chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze the factors influencing pregnancy outcomes. Results: Among 265 pregnant women diagnosed with fetal abnormalities, 190 chose to continue the pregnancy, while 75 chose to terminate it. Pregnant women with multiple fetal abnormalities (OR = 3.774, 95% CI [1.640-8.683]) were more likely to choose termination of pregnancy (TOP), and pregnant women who were advised to terminate their pregnancy or make a careful choice were more likely to terminate the pregnancy (OR = 41.113, 95% CI [11.028-153.267]). Conclusion: The number of organs involved in fetal abnormalities and treatment recommendations were identified as the primary factors influencing pregnancy outcomes. Improving awareness of maternal health care during pregnancy, early pregnancy screening technology, and a multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment approach are of great significance in assisting pregnant women in making informed decisions and improving fetal prognosis.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of minimally invasive surgical repair of pectus excavatum (NUSS) on the degree of chest flatness, cardiopulmonary function, and bone metabolism indexes in children of various age groups. METHODS: In this retrospective study, 62 children with pectus excavatum admitted to our hospital were divided into two groups: group A (3-12 years old) and group B (>12 years old), with 31 cases in each group. All of them were treated with NUSS. The treatment effectiveness, perioperative indexes (operation time, blood loss, ground time, and hospitalization time), degree of chest flatness, cardiopulmonary function, bone metabolism indicators, and complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: There was no significant difference between patients in the two groups in terms of operation time, blood loss, ground time, and hospitalization time (all P>0.05). The overall response rate to treatment in group A (93.55%) was higher than that of group B (70.97%; P<0.05). Three months after the operation, the chest flatness as well as serum alkaline phosphatase and its bone isoform levels in both groups were decreased, while left ventricular ejection fraction, cardiac index, stroke volume, FEV1, and peak expiratory flow levels were increased compared to before the operation, and the improvement in the above indicators of group A was better than Group B (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups (16.13% vs. 9.68%; P>0.05). CONCLUSION: NUSS surgery can achieve satisfactory results in treating children with pectus excavatum at different ages. However, in a certain age range, a younger age indicates a better effect. NUSS procedure effectively improves postoperative flat chest, cardiopulmonary function, and bone metabolism indexes.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the experience drawn from treatment of fetus with congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM). METHODS: This retrospective report has reviewed a clinical history of 115 patients with CCAM from September 2012 to June 2014. All cases were divided into two groups according to symptomatology: group A (n = 96, asymptomatic group) and group B (n = 19, symptomatic group). Major factors were compared between two groups. Numerical data were presented as the median (range). The difference between median was performed with ANOVA. RESULTS: The mean gestational age of prenatal diagnosis was 24.3 weeks (range, 17-36). 49 cases with CCAM volume ratio (CVR) were retrospectively analyzed, with a median max CVR of 0.95 (range, 0.19-3.2), In the 115 cases, mean operation age was (3.7 ± 0.32) months old. Symptom is significantly associated with lesion size and chest radiographs (CXR) (p < 0.05). Compared with symptomatic CCAM patients, asymptomatic patients were associated with better clinical outcome. CONCLUSIONS: The value of CVR to evaluate prognosis showed no statistical significance. Although CXR are not reliable indicators to assess the lesion, it can predict the emergency situation. Due to potential trend of symptomatic and poor postoperative symptoms group, early postnatal CT scan and early surgical treatment are suggested.

RATIONALE: The occurrence of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) and vascular ring (VR) is extremely rare. PATIENT CONCERNS: We present a case of left CCAM with VR consisting of a left aortic arch and right descending aorta with left tracheal compression causing atelectasis. DIAGNOSES: A high-risk male neonate with the diagnosis of left CCAM was diagnosed at 20 weeks gestational age by antenatal ultrasound. Chest CT revealed multiple cysts in the left inferior lung. Cardiac CT showed VR consisting of a left aortic arch and right descending aorta with left tracheal compression causing atelectasis. INTERVENTIONS: left inferior lobectomy was performed. Cardiac CT showed VR consisting of a left aortic arch and right descending aorta with left tracheal compression causing atelectasis. Descending aorta transposition was performed. OUTCOMES: The patient recovered smoothly and remained asymptomatic during the 12-months of postoperative follow-up period. LESSONS: We report this rare case of CCAM with VR consisting of left aortic arch and right descending aorta with left tracheal compression causing atelectasis. From the findings of this report, early surgical treatment is recommended. Although the prognosis after surgery remained good, second surgery can be avoided if VR was detected early.

RATIONALE: Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) associated congenital anomalies are present in about 25%. Congenital short esophagus (CSE) is a relatively rare condition. Both CDH and congenital intrathoracic stomach caused by CSE can be diagnosed in utero. However, CSE can be easily misdiagnosed in utero. PATIENT CONCERNS: We present a case of left CDH with CSE in a female neonate who was diagnosed at 24 weeks gestational age by antenatal ultrasound. DIAGNOSES: The neonate with CDH and congenital intrathoracic stomach due to CSE was confirmed by operation. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GRED) occurred after operation. INTERVENTIONS: The left diaphragm was repaired, and gastric fixation by gastropexy, gastric folding anti-reflux procedure and operation of longitudinal incision and transverse suture for pyloroplasty procedure was underwent. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GRED) occurred after operation and jejunal tube feeding was placed. OUTCOMES: This patient is currently alive 12 months post-operation with GRED. LESSONS: To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of this rare type of CDH combined with congenital intrathoracic stomach caused by CSE. This condition could not be surgically repaired due to the extremely short esophagus. Early recognition of intrathoracic stomach associated with CSE is important as it is associated with difficult management and significant postnatal complications. The prognosis is cautiously guarded, and the parents should be appropriately counseled.

A congenital peribronchial myofibroblastic tumor (CPMT) is a rare benign tumor arising from the lungs. Although CPMT is a benign tumor, it is characterized by rapid growth, and is easily misdiagnosed during the prenatal period when the symptoms are nonspecific. The authors present a rare case of CPMT in a premature infant, which was detected at 28 weeks on ultrasonography (US) but resolved at a later stage of pregnancy. The knowledge concerning the diagnosis and management of CPMT is reviewed. Herein, the authors report of a 30-minute-old premature newborn infant in whom a pulmonary mass was discovered 1 month before delivery. Maternal prenatal US demonstrated a 0.8 × 1 cm well-defined oval-shaped mass in the left hemithorax in the 28th week of gestational age. The pulmonary mass, however, was not apparent on repeat US examination at 32 weeks. The child was delivered by cesarean section at 34 weeks estimated gestational age. Chest radiography and computed tomography revealed a mass-like lesion in the left lower pulmonary lobe. The chest computed tomography characteristics of the tumor included large size (4 cm), an irregular margin, and surrounding ground-glass opacity, which led to misdiagnosis as a malignant tumor. The patient underwent a left inferior lung lobectomy and was pathologically diagnosed with CPMT. He is currently alive 12-month postresection with no evidence of disease recurrence.The authors report this rare case of CPMT, which was detected at 28 weeks and resolved at a later stage of pregnancy. Congenital peribronchial myofibroblastic tumor is an uncommon benign tumor. Lobectomy or pneumonectomy is often required. The prognosis after surgery is good.
