Visual disturbances are common among women with pre-eclampsia. The obstetricians should have an understanding of the various conditions associated with visual impairments. We report a case of Purtscher-like retinopathy developed after pre-eclampsia combined with acute pancreatitis. A 33-year-old primigravida with twin pregnancy was admitted to the department of obstetrics and gynecology for preterm labor and pre-eclampsia at 36+4 weeks gestation. After a cesarean section, she complained of abdominal pain and visual acuity loss. She was diagnosed with Purtscher-like retinopathy combined with acute pancreatitis after ophthalmologic examination and an abdominal computed tomography scan. Purtscher-like retinopathy, most often observed after trauma, is very rare in pre-eclampsia. In addition, while visual disturbances from other conditions are transient, it can result in persistent visual impairments. Thus, when a patient with pre-eclampsia complains of visual problems for a long period of time, obstetricians should consider an ophthalmologic evaluation and treatments during the earliest stage of the disease.

In the past decades, numerous markers and strategies for Down syndrome screening have been developed. With the recent acceptance of first trimester and integrated screening as a part of routine clinical practice, there are now a variety of accepted screening protocols for Down syndrome. These choices can be confusing both to patients and clinicians. First trimester screening is at least as accurate as traditional second trimester screening and provides results earlier. Combining first and second trimester results increases the sensitivity and specificity of screening and reduces the number of women requiring invasive testing. However, the decision to screen and to perform invasive confirmative testing is a personal one that may be influenced by the presence or absence of a family history of aneuploidy or genetic disorders and by the woman's obstetrical and medical history, attitudes and beliefs about termination of pregnancy, education, religious beliefs, and economic concerns. The purpose of this article is to outline the various options in prenatal screening, and their individual advantages and disadvantages.

Enteric duplication cysts are rare congenital malformation, of these, only 4% are gastric origin. It is diagnosed in 80 % of the patients before 2 years of age. Recently, prenatal diagnostic ratio gets higher through sonography and several diagnostic methods. In this paper, we describe a case of a cystic gastric duplication diagnosed prenatally with brief reviews of literature.

... 8 3D power Doppler ultrasonography may be a more appropriate method for quantification of blood supply to an organ than 2D power Doppler ultrasonography. 9 For example, it has been used in the assessment of the cervix in pregnancy [10][11][12] , assessment of the quantifications of vascularity in the placenta, 13 in precancerous lesions and in cervical cancer. 14,15 The interobserver and intraobserver reproducibility of cervical volume calculations and quantification of power Doppler signals in cervical volumes obtained by 3D scanning of the cervix in pregnant women have been determined. ...

... Besides the classic Purtscher's retinopathy, a similar clinical retinopathy having non-traumatic etiology has also been described. This pathology, designated in the Literature as Purtscher's-like retinopathy [4], is usually associated with acute pancreatitis [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], whose detection could be an indicator of multi-organ failure with a poor prognosis [14]. The possible pathophysiology lies in the pancreatic injury or inflammation that causes the release of activated proteases such as trypsin, which in turn activate the complement system. ...
