Increased efforts have focused on reducing maternal morbidity and mortality in the United States (US). Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, chronic hypertension, diabetes mellitus, very advanced age, grand multiparity are known contributors to various morbidities, as well mortality. We aimed evaluate trends these risk factors/complications among US pregnancies during last three decades (1989-2018).

Transabdominal gray-scale power Doppler acquired by one three experienced sonographers (an average seven per fetus). Acquisition was first attempted sagittal coronal planes. When position did not...

This finding was thought to represent an abnormal fourth ventricle-cisterna magna complex. Subsequently, diagnoses a Dandy-Walker malformation with partial vermian agenesis 1 case inferior hypoplasia other established confirmed by either postmortem autopsy or postnatal magnetic resonance imaging.
