Preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) is associated with significant maternal morbidity and perinatal mortality. With an increasing era of infertility, the main interest of an assisted reproductive technology specialist is to increase the take-home baby rate. Here authors present report on the outcomes of prolonged preterm PROM cases facilitated with expectant management. Report is based on the medical records of six women with preterm PROM between 16-31 weeks of gestation who gave their consent to continue the pregnancy. These women were diagnosed with PROM by the litmus test and per speculum examination. Ultrasound scan and clinical investigation, which included complete blood count and C-reactive protein level, were performed in all cases. Prophylactic antibiotics were administered to prevent the infection and increase the latency period. All six babies (100%) were delivered successfully. There was no foetal mortality and maternal morbidity observed. Expectant management in preterm PROM cases can increase the survival rate and hence the take-home baby rate.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of serial amnioinfusion therapy (SAT) for pulmonary hypoplasia in lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) or congenital renal anomalies (CRAs), introduce patient selection criteria, and present a case of SAT in bilateral renal agenesis. We conducted a search of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Scopus databases for articles published from database inception to November 10, 2017. Eight studies with 17 patients (7 LUTO, 8 CRA, and 2 LUTO þ CRA) were included in the study. The median age of the mothers was 31 years (N¼9; interquartile range [IQR], 29-33.5 years), the number of amnioinfusions was 7 (N¼17; IQR, 4.5-21), gestational age at first amnioinfusion was 23 weeks and 4 days (N¼17; IQR, 21-24.07), gestational age at delivery was 32 weeks and 2 days (N¼17; IQR, 30 weeks to 35 weeks and 6.5 days), birthweight of newborns was 3.7 kg (N¼ 9; IQR, 2.7-3.7 kg), Apgar score at 1 minute was 2.5 (N¼8; IQR, 1-6.5), and Apgar score at 5 minutes was 5.5 (N¼8; IQR, 0-7.75). In conclusion, SAT may provide fetal pulmonary palliation by reducing the risk of newborn pulmonary compromise secondary to oligohydramnios. Multidisciplinary research efforts are required to further inform treatment and counseling guidelines. We propose a multidisciplinary approach to prenatal classification of fetuses with LUTO to inform patient selection.

“…We used warm lactated Ringer's solution because its pH and electrolytes were most similar to levels previously measured in ovine amniotic fluid [21,22]. Human studies using saline have shown favorable results with amnioinfusions in alleviating fetal growth restriction and in diminishing pulmonary hypoplasia, neurologic injuries, and umbilical cord compression [3,14,23,24].…”
