[Dicephalic conjoined twins-a case report].

Presentation of a case of dicephalic conjoined twins, rare malformation with an incidence of 1:50000. Before dissection, the specimen was investigated by CT, x-ray and ultrasound. Dissection was performed under Zeiss surgical microscope and the images were taken with a Sony video line. Specimens for histologic examination were collected. The parents refused genetic examination. The complex study of the specimen allowed us to make the following diagnosis: dicephalus dibrahii dipus conjoined twins. In the past 20 years no such case was reported in Romania. An etiological diagnosis is impossible. Embryologically, we support the fusion theory (Winslow) promoted by O'Rahily (1998): gemellarity disturbance during the first week of pregnancy.

[Pelvic-perineal prolapse of 3rd grade after subtotal hysterectomy].

The pelvi-perineal prolapse (PPP), which is a relatively well defined anatomo-clinical and surgical entity, involves a complex etiology and pathogeny. The relatively rapid appearance of PPP after subtotal hysterectomy without the suspension of the vaginal stump and perineal reconstruction has already been substantiated. This study refers to a similar case, where it was necessary to apply some non-typical surgical technics (cervical stump extirpation, colpoligamentopexy with 4 non-resorbable threads at the Cooper ligaments and perineal reconstruction), with the aim of vaginal suspension, at a menopausal patient with PPP of 3rd degree, stress urinary incontinence, ulcerating remaining cervix and cystorectocele, installed at 2 years after the inter-annexal subtotal hysterectomy.

[Cerebro-umbilical ratio--high fidelity indicator in ante-partum fetal disorder].

In this study, we have aimed to point out the reliability and importance of the cerebro-umbilical ratio obtained by Doppler exploration, in comparison with classical investigations, as well as to verify the diagnosis of ante-partum foetal disorder through the amount of the Apgar score at the fetuses having been monitored.

[Connective tissue modifications in the pelvi-perineal prolapse at menopause].

AIM: The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the histological structure of the Levator Ani (LA) muscle at female patients with pelvi-perineal prolapse (PPP). MATERIAL AND METHODS: After having taken biopsies of LA from 50 patients with PPP, a microscopic qualitative and quantitative study has been performed. This study was done by comparison with a control lot. RESULTS: The connective, muscular and vascular modifications in the structure of the LA are presented, in connection with the hormonal status of patients with PPP and also the influence of these modifications on the anatomic and functional integrity of the pelvic floor. CONCLUSIONS: Applying the hormonal maintenance treatment for menopause patients has become strictly necessary, both in the PPP prophylaxis and after restoring surgeries.
