:Rupture uterus is a rare and often catastrophic condition. It is associated with a high incidence of fetal and maternal mortality and morbidity. Our objective in this study is to determine incidence, etiology, trend, management, maternal and fetal outcome of uterine rupture in Faridpur Medical College Hospital. This is a prospective cross-sectional study of patients with ruptured uterus from the period of January 2011 to December 2011 admitted at Faridpur Medical College Hospital. All the cases of ruptured uterus who were either admitted with uterine rupture or who developed it in hospital were included in the study. Patients having ruptured uterus due to congenital anomaly were excluded from the study. Patients were initially assessed in labour ward, relevant sociodemographic data, previous antenatal and surgical history recorded. Ways of management, maternal and fetal outcome were taken for analysis. There were 30 cases of ruptured uterus out of total 3606 deliveries (including 1809 caesarian sections) over a one year time period, with a prevalence of 0.83%. The most common age group was 21-30 years. A majority of patients 16(53.3%) were cases of unscarred uterus presenting with rupture; the common cause of rupture in scarred uterus was injudicious use of oxytocin (13,43.33%). Proper antenatal care, appropriate counseling of patients with history of previous caesarian section for hospital delivery, training of skilled birth attendant can reduce mortality and morbidity due to rupture uterus.
Fibroids are muscular tumours, the most common benign tumours in females and typically found during the middle and later reproductive years. It originate from the smooth muscle layer of the uterus. Another medical term is leiomyoma or just myoma. It can be as small as an apple seed or as big as a melon. In unusual cases they can become very large. With the advent of high frequency ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging it is now possible to diagnose such cases at an early stage1. Asymptomatic uterine fibroids often left untreated. Giant fibroids are the fibroids weighing 11.4kg2,3 or more. Such a fibroid may appear as a solitary tumor or as a conglomerate mass of uterine fibroids presenting as a single uterine tumor4. Giant uterine fibroid are very rare neoplasm and represents a great diagnosis and therapeutic challange. This article illustrates a case of 34 years old woman presented with a four year history of slowly increasing abdominal size with rapid increase in the last one year associated with shortness of breath and severe anaemia by a painless lump. Total abdominal hysterectomy was performed; histologically the specimen was 9.5 kg benign uterine leiomyoma. The patients postoperative evaluation was uneventful and she went back abroad in two months time following operation.Bangladesh J Obstet Gynaecol, 2012; Vol. 27(1) : 27-30
Objectives:The study was done with the objective to find the perinatal outcome in eclampsia patients and also to find out preventable causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity which are related to eclampsia. Materials
:Ectopic pregnancy is a condition where gestation sac is located outside the uterine cavity; it is a major life threatening situation in early pregnancy. A cornual pregnancy is an ectopic pregnancy that develops in the interstitial portion of the fallopian tube invading through the uterine wall. As myometrium is more distensible fallopian tube cornual pregnancies often rupture later than other tubal pregnancies. Cornual pregnancy is rare and carries grave consequences to both mother and fetus. Here a case report has been presented where the patient was admitted in Faridpur Medical College Hospital. The case was presented with intra-abdominal haemorrhage at second trimester. In this cases investigation missed the diagnosis, final diagnosis was only made after laparotomy. The need for clinical suspicion and role of ultrasonography, resuscitation and laparotomy is necessary to prevent catastrophe.
:After abdominal surgery some patient's needs relaparotomy for complications developed postoperatively. Aim of this study was to determine the risk factors causing re-laparotomy, the indications, management and outcomes of relaparotomy admitting in Obstetrics and Gynaecology department in Faridpur Medical College Hospital, a tertiary referral hospital where all complicated patients are referred for management from surrounding districts hospital. It was a cross sectional study done during the period of January 2011 to December 2011, All the cases among which relaparotomy were done after primary surgery were recorded using a protocol prepared for the study. Data was analyzed. Total 6304 patients were admitted in emergency way in Obstetrics and Gynaecology department of Faridpur Medical College Hospital. Among them 1864 patients undergone emergency operations, here 15 patients needed re-laparotomy. The incidence of re-laparotomy was 0.80%. Indications of relaparotomy included internal hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), retained foreign body, incorrect diagnosis at first laparotomy, intraabdominal collection of pus and urine, Rectus sheath haematoma and burst abdomen. Often more than one procedure was needed to manage the cases. Re-laparotomy causes much morbidity & mortality with increase in hospital stay and cost. Careful selection of cases for primary operation, expertise of the surgeon, good surgical technique and careful postoperative follow-up can reduce the need for re-laparotomy.
