[Ovarian ectopic pregnancy with little common clinical presentation. A case report and bibliographical review]. / Embarazo ectópico ovárico con presentación clínica poco común. Reporte de caso y revisión de la bibliografía.

UNLABELLED: Ovarian ectopic pregnancy is only 3% of all ectopic, with an incidence of 1:7,000-40,000. In the last 10 years, it has been a rise in incidence. Most patients have vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain and shock data. Less than 300-400 cases are reported in the literature. CASE: We present the case of a woman with ovarian ectopic pregnancy of 12 weeks of gestation, who have not suggestive clinical signs and whose diagnosis was incidental despite having a regular prenatal ultrasound. CONCLUSION: Ovarian pregnancy is a rare presentation; diagnosis is difficult and often suggested by clinical data, when clinical data fail, more studies are needed to integrate the diagnosis.

[Atipical uremic hemolityc syndrome in pregnancy]. / Síndrome urémico hemolítico atípico en el embarazo.

Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome is one of the main variants of thrombotic microangiopathy, and is characterized by excessive complement activation in the microvasculature. It is also characterised by the clinical triad; non-immune haemolytic anaemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure. In addition, 60% of patients have mutations in the genes encoding complement regulators (factor H, factor I, membrane cofactor proteins, and thrombomodulin), activators (factor B and C3), as well as autoantibodies against factor H. Multiple factors are required for the disease to manifest itself, including a trigger and gene mutations with adequate penetration. Being one of the differential diagnoses of preeclampsia- eclampsia and HELLP syndrome means that the clinician must be familiar with the disease due to its high mortality, which can be modified with early diagnosis and comprehensive treatment.

Insuficiencia cardiaca aguda secundaria a estenosis mitral reumática durante el puerperio / Puerperal acute heart failure secondary to mitral stenosis. Case report / Insuficiência cardíaca aguda secundária à estenose mitral reumática durante puerpério

Resumen: Las cardiopatías complican 4% de los embarazos y 60% son por valvulopatías reumáticas; la más común es la estenosis mitral. Por esta razón, reportamos el caso de una puérpera en apariencia sana con embarazo normoevolutivo que debutó con falla cardiaca derecha. Se integró el diagnóstico de estenosis mitral grave por enfermedad reumática, la cual se estabilizó de manera precoz para realizar de forma externa corrección quirúrgica. Aunque en la actualidad la prevalencia de enfermedades reumáticas ha disminuido, la estenosis mitral sigue siendo la valvulopatía más común en las embarazadas y es una entidad potencialmente mortal si no se lleva el control adecuado.

Abstract: Heart disease complicates 4% of pregnancies, and rheumatic valve diseases make up 60% of these cases. The most common one is mitral stenosis. We present the case of a healthy puerperal woman with a non-complicated pregnancy who begin with pulmonary edema and acute heart failure. She was diagnosed with severe mitral stenosis with rheumatoid etiology, which was stabilized for external surgical correction. Although the prevalence of rheumatoid diseases has decreased, mitral stenosis remains the most common valve disease in pregnant women and is life-threatening without proper control.

Resumo: As cardiopatias complicam 4% das gestações e 60% são decorrentes de valvopatias reumáticas, sendo a mais comum a estenose mitral. Por esse motivo, relatamos o caso de uma puérpera aparentemente saudável com gestação normoevolutiva, que debutou com insuficiência cardíaca direita, integrando o diagnóstico de estenose mitral grave por doença reumática, que se estabilizou precocemente para realizar correção cirúrgica externa. Embora atualmente a prevalência de doenças reumáticas tenha diminuído, a estenose mitral ainda é a doença valvular mais comum em mulheres grávidas e é uma entidade potencialmente fatal se não for adequadamente controlada.
