Abstract

Hygroma colli is a congenital disorder in the form of cystic enlargement in the cervical region due to impaired development of the lymphatic system. This condition is often an indicator of chromosomal abnormalities, such as Turner syndrome and other aneuploidy. This case report aims to describe the process of identifying hygroma colli in a 17-week-old fetus through ultrasound examination and subsequent treatment. A 26-year-old primigravida woman was referred to the hospital for the discovery of a mass on the fetal neck through ultrasound. Follow-up examination showed the presence of symmetrical, thin, hypochic, unobstructed cystic masses in the lateral posterior region of the fetal neck with abnormalities of the pulmonary organs. Based on the findings, the pregnancy was decided to be terminated. These findings show the importance of prenatal ultrasound for early detection of hygroma colli and potential chromosomal abnormalities so that management can be planned more optimally.

Abstract

This case report aims to highlight the significance of ultrasound imaging in the prenatal diagnosis of hygroma colli, a condition often associated with chromosomal abnormalities, particularly Turner Syndrome (45,XO). A 26-year-old primigravid woman at 17 weeks of gestation was referred for further evaluation of a fetal neck mass detected during routine ultrasound. The sonographic findings revealed a symmetrical, non-septated, hypoechoic cystic mass in the posterolateral region of the fetal neck, along with agenesis of one lung lobe. Based on these findings, pregnancy termination was planned and performed using misoprostol and laminaria insertion. The fetus was delivered with a birth weight of 150 g, a length of 14 cm, and Apgar Score 0/0. Postnatal examination confirmed the presence of hygroma colli, consistent with the ultrasound findings. This case reinforces the importance of early ultrasound screening in identifying fetal anomalies and guiding clinical decisions.

Abstract

Syphilis is a systemic infectious disease caused by Troponema palidum. Syphilis is generally transmitted through sexual contact, but can also be transmitted vertically during pregnancy. Until now syphilis has become a world wide problem for pregnant women, WHO recommends syphilis tested by triple elimination (syphilis, hepatitis B, and HIV) during antenatal care for better pregnancy outcomes.21 year old female, diagnosed with primipara 32-33 weeks of gestational age active phase of labor, latent syphilis + intrauterine single live fetus with head presentation. The patient had never checked her pregnancy until the current gestational age, and only found out that she had syphilis accompanied by clinical symptoms. Birth of a baby with suspected congenital syphilis.Â
