    The ability of various cerebroplacental ratio thresholds to predict adverse neonatal outcomes in term fetuses exhibiting late-onset fetal growth restriction
    (Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2021) Melekoglu, Rauf; Yilmaz, Ercan; Yasar, Seyma; Hatipoglu, Irem; Kahveci, Bekir; Sucu, Mete
    Objectives: Our primary aim was to evaluate the ability of various cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) reference values suggested by the Fetal Medicine Foundation to predict adverse neonatal outcomes in term fetuses exhibiting lateonset fetal growth restriction (LOFGR). Our secondary aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of other obstetric Doppler parameters used to assess fetal well-being in terms of predicting adverse neonatal outcomes. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of 317 pregnant women diagnosed with LOFGR at 37-40 weeks of gestation between January 1, 2016, and September 1, 2019. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to determine the predictive performance of CPR <1, CPR <5th or <10th percentile, and umbilical artery pulsatility (PI) >95th percentile in terms of predicting adverse neonatal outcomes. Results: Pregnant women exhibiting LOFGR who gave birth in our clinic during the study period at a mean of 38 gestational weeks (minimum 37+0; maximum 40+6 weeks); the median CPR was 1.51 [interquartile range (IQR) 1.12-1.95] and median birthweight 2,350 g (IQR 2,125-2,575 g). The CPR <5th percentile best predicted adverse neonatal outcomes [area under the curve (AUC) 0.762, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.672-0.853, p<0.0001] and CPR <1 was the worst predictor (AUC 0.630, 95% CI 0.515-0.745, p=0.021). Of other Doppler parameters, neither the umbilical artery systole/diastole ratio nor the mid-cerebral artery to peak systolic velocity ratio (MCA-PSV) predicted adverse neonatal outcomes (AUC 0.598, 95% CI 0 .480 - 0.598, p=0.104; AUC 0.521, 95% CI 0.396-0.521, p=0.744 respectively). Conclusions: The CPR values below the 5th percentile better predicted adverse neonatal outcomes in pregnancies complicated by LOFGR than the UA PI and CPR <1 by using Fetal Medicine Foundation reference ranges.

    The effect of advanced maternal age on perinatal outcomes in nulliparous singleton pregnancies
    (Bmc, 2018) Kahveci, Bekir; Melekoglu, Rauf; Evruke, Ismail Cuneyt; Cetin, Cihan
    Background: Pregnancy at advanced maternal age has become more common in both developed and developing countries over the last decades. The association between adverse perinatal outcomes and advanced maternal age has been a matter of controversy in several studies. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of advanced maternal age on perinatal and neonatal outcomes of nulliparous singleton pregnancies. Methods: Records of patients admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Cukurova School of Medicine, between January 2011 and July 2015 for routine mid-trimester fetal ultrasonography were retrospectively reviewed. The control (age: 18-34 years), advanced maternal age (35-39 years), and very advanced maternal age (>40 years) groups included 471, 399, and 87 women, respectively. Results: Gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension, and cesarean delivery rates were more common in the very advanced maternal age group, with compared with the advanced maternal age and the younger age group. There were no significant differences in regarding rates of spontaneous preterm delivery before 34 weeks of gestation, prolonged rupture of membranes, large for gestational age infants, and operative vaginal delivery rates between the groups. Also, there were no significant differences regarding in APGAR scores, the rate of low birth weight infants, and neonatal morbidity rates between the groups. However, admission to the neonatal intensive care unit requirement was more common in the two advanced maternal age groups compared with the control group. Conclusion: Advanced maternal age is a risk factor for gestational diabetes mellitus, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, small for gestational age infants, spontaneous late preterm delivery, and cesarean section, with significant potential clinical implications.

    Prenatal diagnosis of a rare isolated thoracic-type ectopia cordis with complete form: a case report
    (Springer Int Publ Ag, 2022) Kahveci, Bekir; Melekoglu, Rauf; Deger, Ugur; Demir, Suleyman Cansun
    Ectopia cordis (EC) is a rare malformation that occurs as an isolated lesion or as part of the pentalogy of Cantrell which is characterized by midline closure defects. This was first described by Haller et al. in 1706. EC is seen with a frequency of 5.5-7.9 per 1 million births. It has five types that are: cervical, cervico-thoracic, thoracic, thoraco-abdominal, and abdominal. Its differentiation from the pentalogy of Cantrell, first described by Cantrell in 1958, must be done well. Thoracic type has the worst prognosis and due to this poor prognosis in the postnatal period, termination may be offered to these patients as an option. In this paper, a case of an isolated thoracic-type complete EC detected in the prenatal ultrasonography of a pregnant woman referred to our clinic at the 18 weeks and 3 days of gestation is presented.
