Our data suggested that despite in utero MMC surgery, patients are at risk for bladder abnormal function and renal deterioration and should be aggressively treated, not differently from those operated in the post-natal term. This study has the merit of being a prospectively set evaluation performed by one investigator, including the urodynamic study. We acknowledge the need of long-term follow up.
We present normal intracranial translucency values in the first trimester of single gestations with live fetuses in a Latin American population. These values are similar to those described in other populations. The intracranial translucency value was linearly correlated with crown-rump length in fetuses between gestational ages of 11 weeks and 13 weeks 6 days, which is consistent with previous publications, although these data cannot be interpreted independently.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
