    (Springer Int Publ Ag, 2023) Dogru, Sukran; Akkus, Fatih; Atci, Asli Altinordu; Erdogan, Kubra Memnune; Acar, Ali
    ObjectiveThe purpose of this study is to assess the scar area and niche formation after cesarean section in women who had preterm or term deliveries and underwent cesarean section at various stages of labor. MethodThis prospective cohort study consists of cases who underwent the first cesarean section for different obstetric reasons. The patients were divided into four groups regarding gestational age and cervical dilatation. After a cesarean section, all patients were called for vaginal ultrasonography control at 12 weeks. The location of the scar and the presence of a niche were evaluated. The residual (RMT), proximal, and distal myometrial thicknesses were evaluated where the scar and niche were located. ResultsA total of 87 cases were included in the study. There was no difference in the prevalence of niche between the groups (p > 0.05). RMT and proximal and distal myometrial thickness were not different between the 37 >= week and 37 < week groups, while RMT and proximal and distal myometrial thickness were significantly lower in women with active labor (p =0.001, p= 0.006, p =0.016). The location of the scar was the isthmus at 37 weeks and above (p= 0.002), it was in the cervical canal in the group below 37 weeks (p= 0.017). ConclusionThe gestational week and cervical changes did not affect the prevalence of the niche. In cases of active labor and preterm deliveries, the CS scar defect was located in the cervical canal; however, in cases of term deliveries, it was located in the isthmic area.

    Fetal epicardial fat thickness in non-severe idiopathic polyhydramnios: Its impact on fetal cardiac function and perinatal outcomes
    (Wiley, 2023) Dogru, Sukran; Akkus, Fatih
    Objective: This study aimed to evaluate fetal epicardial fat thickness (EFT) along with fetal myocardial performance index (MPI) and its effects on perinatal outcomes in non-severe idiopathic polyhydramnios (IP).Materials and Methods: This prospective study included 92 participants, 32 diagnosed with non-severe IP, and 60 healthy pregnant women. Amniotic fluid indices (AFI), umbilical and middle cerebral artery Doppler, EFT, and MPI measurements were performed for all patients.Results: The fetal EFT and MPI values were statistically higher in the non-severe IP group than in the control group (p = 0.0001, p = 0.014, respectively). The optimal fetal EFT cutoff value for predicting non-severe IP disease was found as 1.3 mm with a specificity of 81.7% and sensitivity of 59.4%. The EFT cutoff for predicting cesarean section in non-severe IP cases was 1.25 mm (p = 0.038). Apgar scores, neonatal intensive care unit, respiratory distress syndrome, and stillbirth rates were not different between groups.Conclusion: In this study, EFT and MPI were found to be higher in non-severe IP cases compared to controls. It was observed that the increase in MPI and EFT was associated with the increase in cesarean rates, but not with adverse fetal outcomes.

    Fetoscopic surgery for amniotic band syndrome: Case series
    (Wiley, 2023) Dogru, Sukran; Acar, Ali
    We aimed to evaluate the fetoscopic procedure indications, procedure-related complications, and neonatal outcomes in cases diagnosed with amniotic band syndrome (ABS). Stage II and III cases according to Husler classification were included for fetoscopic surgery. Scissors were used to release the amniotic band in six cases, and a diode laser was used in one case. A single entry was made in all cases. The majority of the children acquired a functional limb (71.4%). Fetal morbidity was mainly linked to the consequences of preterm premature rupture of the membranes (57.1%) and preterm birth (28.5%). Excluding complicated cases, fetoscopic band release is encouraging in cases of ABS in the limbs.

    The initial number of fetuses in multiple pregnancy before reduction affects perinatal outcomes
    (Wiley, 2023) Akkus, Fatih; Dogru, Sukran; Atci, Asli Altinordu; Dal, Yusuf; Arici, Elifsena Canan Alp; Acar, Ali
    Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the perinatal outcomes of dichorionic diamniotic (DCDA) twin pregnancies reduced by the fetal reduction (FR) procedure and cases with continuing DCDA twin pregnancies without FR. Materials and Methods: FR performed in a university hospital in the last 10 years was evaluated. Pregnancies reduced to DCDA twin pregnancies by reduction from three or more pregnancies and pregnancies that started with DCDA twins and continued with DCDA twins were compared in terms of perinatal outcomes. In the subgroup analysis, those who were reduced from three-chorionic three-amniotic (TCTA) triplets to DCDA twins and those who were reduced to DCDA twin pregnancies from four or more were compared in terms of perinatal outcomes. Results: A total of 119 pregnant women were included in the study, 36 patients underwent FR, while 83 patients were DCDA twins who did not undergo FR. The groups were similar in terms of preterm delivery (p = 0.370). There was a higher rate of miscarriage (21.4% vs. 0.0%, p = 0.019) in the group that was reduced to DCDA twins from quadruplet and above pregnancies compared to the group that was reduced from TCTA triplets to DCDA twins. The gestational week at birth was lower in the group reduced to DCDA twins from quadruplets and above pregnancies (31.00 +/- 4.31 vs. 34.64 +/- 2.88, p = 0.019). Conclusion: The study's results show that the perinatal outcomes of multiple pregnancies with and without FR are the same As the number of reduced fetuses increases, the rates of preterm birth and miscarriage also increase.

    Predictability of Hematological Parameters in the Diagnosis of Cesarean Scar Pregnancy
    (Thieme Medical Publ Inc, 2023) Dogru, Sukran; Atci, Asli Altinordu; Akkus, Fatih; Erdogan, Arif Caner; Acar, Ali
    Introduction Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is an increasing clinical condition that causes serious maternal morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate if inflammation markers measured by hemogram can aid in the diagnosis of CSP.Materials and Methods A total of 86 patients were included in the study. The cases were divided as CSP ( n : 42) and normal pregnancy (NP) ( n : 44). At the time of admission, peripheral blood neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, thrombocytes, systemic inflammatory index (SII) (neutrophil x platelet/lymphocyte), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, monocyte-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-lymphocyte ratio were all measured. CSP and NP diagnoses were made by transabdominal or vaginal ultrasonography.Results In the CSP group, mean age ( p < 0.001), gravida ( p < 0.001), parity ( p < 0.001), number of surviving children ( p < 0.001), number of abortions ( p < 0.001), cesarean number ( p < .001), dilatation and curettage count ( p = 0.013), monocyte (M) value ( p = 0.039) and monocyte/lymphocyte value (MLR) ( p = 0.035) were significantly higher than the control group. The optimal M value cut-off value was found to be > 0.40, the sensitivity value was 78.57, and the specificity value was 50.00. AUC = 0.632 (SE = 0.061) for the MLR value. The optimal MLR cut-off value was found to be > 0.232, the sensitivity value was 61.90, and the specificity value was 63.64.Conclusion Hemogram parameters, which are simple, inexpensive, and easily accessible, M and MLR are significantly higher in the diagnosis of CSP and can be used as an auxiliary parameter for ultrasonography.

    Superior mesenteric artery Doppler parameters in the evaluation of fetal hyperechogenic bowel
    (Wiley, 2023) Akkus, Fatih; Dogru, Sukran
    Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and clinical effects of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) Doppler indices such as the systole diastole ratio (S/D), Pulsatility (PI), and resistance index (RI) in the diagnosis of hyperechogenic bowel. Methods: A total of 133 pregnant women, including 66 with hyperechogenic bowel and 67 controls, were enrolled in the study. All participants were evaluated in the second trimester by an experienced obstetrician. Doppler measurements were performed, including superior mesenteric artery peak systolic velocity, S/D ratio, PI, and RI. Statistical analysis was conducted to compare the Doppler parameters between the hyperechogenic bowel and control groups. Results: No significant differences were found between the hyperechogenic bowel and control groups in terms of age, body mass index, gestational week, and fetal measurements. While SMA peak systolic velocity (PSV) showed no significant difference between the groups (p = 0.074), the S/D ratio (4.01 +/- 0.59 vs. 3.27 +/- 0.57, p = 0.0001), PI (1.51 +/- 0.15 vs. 1.29 +/- 0.06, p = 0.0001), RI (0.76 +/- 0.05 vs. 0.67 +/- 0.04, p = 0.0001) were significantly higher in the hyperechogenic bowel group compared to the control group. Screening tests based on Doppler parameters also demonstrated significant differences. The S/D ratio, PI, and RI exhibited good to excellent diagnostic accuracy, as indicated by the area under the curve values. Pregnant women with a high RI value of 0.72 were 101 times more likely to be diagnosed with HB. The odds ratio (OR) for diagnosing HB is 101.66 (CI 95%, 31.04-332.97). Conclusion: Doppler indices, specifically the S/D ratio, PI, and RI, showed strong predictive ability and diagnostic accuracy in identifying cases of hyperechogenic bowel. These findings suggest that Doppler ultrasound can serve as a valuable tool for evaluating hyperechogenic bowel and may provide important clinical implications. Further diagnostic tests are warranted to determine the underlying cause of hyperechogenic bowel in individual cases.
