“…In our 5 patients and the 5 reported by Spirt et al [4] and Jeanty et al [5], the main placenta was located posteriorly, with an an terior succenturiate lobe. However, in the case of a posterior succenturiate lobe, the antenatal diagnosis was difficult as the ultra sound did not penetrate the fetal body.…”

“…The succenturiate placenta is defined as an accessory lobe connected to the main pla centa by membranes supplied by fetal vessels [4,5]. The incidence of this anomaly is only 0.16-0.28% of all pregnancies [7] and is un familiar to many obstetricians.…”

“…Ultrasonography provides information on fetal appendages [1,2] and an antenatal diagnosis of related abnormalities such as single umbilical artery [3], succenturiate pla centa [4,5], amniotic band syndrome [6] and so on can be made. The ultrasonic appear ance of the succenturiate placenta and the significance of the related antenatal diagno sis are discussed in this report.…”

The succenturiate placenta is a morphological abnormality, the antenatal recognition of which is important as vessels connecting the main placenta with the succenturiate placenta may rupture during labor and fetal death may ensue. In addition, retention of the placental material may lead to postpartum hemorrhage. We treated 5 patients with a succenturiate placenta and the antenatal ultrasonograms and related discussions are presented herein.

“…Prenatal sonographic diagnosis of succenturiate (and bilobate) placenta, both similarly potential predisposing factors for vasa previa, have been reported. [126][127][128][129][130] Sonographic findings of these similar entities are rather straightforward and consist of the notation of placental tissue without continuity (occupying areas at a distance from each other) yet connected by fetal vasculature.…”

The umbilical cord constitutes a continuation of the fetal cardiovascular system anatomically bridging between the placenta and the fetus. This structure, critical in human development, enables mobility of the developing fetus within the gestational sac in contrast to the placenta, which is anchored to the uterine wall. The umbilical cord is protected by unique, robust anatomical features, which include: length of the umbilical cord, Wharton's jelly, two umbilical arteries, coiling, and suspension in amniotic fluid. These features all contribute to protect and buffer this essential structure from potential detrimental twisting, shearing, torsion, and compression forces throughout gestation, and specifically during labor and delivery. The arterial components of the umbilical cord are further protected by the presence of Hyrtl's anastomosis between the two respective umbilical arteries. Abnormalities of the umbilical cord are uncommon yet include excessively long or short cords, hyper or hypocoiling, cysts, single umbilical artery, supernumerary vessels, rarely an absent umbilical cord, stricture, furcate and velamentous insertions (including vasa previa), umbilical vein and arterial thrombosis, umbilical artery aneurysm, hematomas, and tumors (including hemangioma angiomyxoma and teratoma). This commentary will address current perspectives of prenatal sonography of the umbilical cord, including structural anomalies and the potential impact of future imaging technologies.

Ultrasound assists in the diagnosis and management of obstetric hemorrhage. With improving technology and increasing availability, there has been a decreased morbidity and mortality from obstetric hemorrhage due to ectopic pregnancy, vasa previa and abnormal placentation. There is also theoretic benefit for the use of ultrasound in less common conditions such as uterine varix. The goal of this article is to review the common causes of obstetric hemorrhage; to review the ultrasound findings in these causes; and to discuss the intraoperative use of ultrasound in the treatment of obstetric hemorrhage. Objectives Review common causes of obstetric hemorrhage Review the ultrasound findings of these causes Discuss the role of ultrasound during procedures for obstetric hemorrhage
