Background: When the benefits to the mother or the foetus outweigh the risks of continuing the pregnancy, such as post-dated pregnancy, preeclampsia, or foetal growth restriction, induction of labour is indicated. Induction of labour is performed in approximately 20% of all pregnancies, and successful induction has been linked to cervical characteristics, or 'ripeness.' However, the Bishop score's assessment of the cervix's "favorability" prior to initiation is very subjective, and numerous investigations have indicated that it has a poor prognostic value, particularly for women with low Bishop Scores. The aim of this study: was to assess the accuracy of transvaginal and …

Role Of Ultrasonography In Diagnosis Of Contralateral Patent Processus Vaginalis In Clinically Diagnosed Unilateral Inguinal Hernia In Pediatrics, Mohammed Ayman Elsayed Elmekdam, Mohammad Mohammad Mohammad Ellithy, Mohammad Fathy Labib Mohammad, Mohamed Elsayed Hussien Ibrahim, Mohammad Abol Wafa Ahmad Amin

Al-Azhar International Medical Journal

Background: In children with unilateral inguinal hernia, there is a debate about exploration of the contralateral side. Herniogrhaphy, diagnostic pneumoperitoneum, and intra-operative laparoscopy are the procedures that have been proposed to reduce the number of negative contralateral side explorations in children presenting with a unilateral congenital inguinal hernia. However, most of them are invasive methods. In our study we suggest using the ultrasonography in detection of the inguinal hernia with confirmation by laparoscope. Aim of the work: we aimed to assess the Sensitivity and specificity of US in the diagnosis of occult hernia after confirmation by laparoscopy. Patient and methods: …
