Corpus Luteum of Pregnancy (CLP)
Dr. Cosmina Brümmer Le Roux
Obstetrică - ginecologie Râmnicu Vâlcea, Apogeu

In the first trimester , the most common ovarian cyst associated with pregnancy is the CLP. The CLP secrets both estrogen and progesterone to support the pregnancy until the placenta can take over this hormonal function near the end of the first trimester . The CLP forms after ovulation and increases in size if a pregnancy occurs. Ultrasound/Doppler - CLPs exhibit a gamut of sonographic patterns ranging from a simple cyst pattern to more complex patterns including diffuse internal low-amplitude echoes , layered echoes , single or multiple thin septations . It is not possible to distinguish ...

Confirming Ovulation
Dr. Cosmina Brümmer Le Roux
Obstetrică - ginecologie Râmnicu Vâlcea, Apogeu

Sonography does appear to be very reliable in confirming ovulation once ovulation has occurred . Disappearance of the follicle is noted in 91 % of cases after ovulation and a decrease in follicle size occurs in another 9% . Other signs suggesting that ovulation has occurred are the appearance of cu;-de-sac fluid , particularly when it was not present in a previous scan , or the development of intrafollicular echoes suggesting the formation of a hemorrhagic corpus luteum .

Common Features of Infections Producing Infertility
Dr. Cosmina Brümmer Le Roux
Obstetrică - ginecologie Râmnicu Vâlcea, Apogeu

Infertility is presumably underestimated because diagnostic involves a specialist. A review of the literature reveals that 60 to 80 million couples experience infertility worldwide and by 2 million couples (15%) in the United States wherein infection is the major cause. Annual reports suggests an occurrence of 3 million lower genital tract infections yearly in the United Stated. 30% of these infections cause pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and that at least 20% result in infertility. Portals of entry for these infections that are usually STDs , include genitalia , urinary meatus , mouth...

Choroid Plexus Cysts
Dr. Cosmina Brümmer Le Roux
Obstetrică - ginecologie Râmnicu Vâlcea, Apogeu

Choroid Plexus Cysts are a well-known ultrasound aneuploidy marker and are easily detectable at second-trimester ultrasound examination , showing an incidence in euploid fetus close to 1 percent and a positive predictive value of 1 to 6 percent . The association with other fetal anomalities , their bilateralism , a diameter bigger than 10 mm and their persistence after 22 to 24 weeks have been classical indication for cytogenetic fetal study. A prospective study of advanced age women found that if fetal CPCs appear to be isolated , genetic amniocentesis is not mandatory and additional risk fac...
