Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is an infrequent cause of morbidity in pregnancy. We presented a case of stage three uterovaginal prolapse that was first noticed in the third trimester. Management of POP is individualized and its determined by the severity of the symptoms, stage of the prolapse, gestational age, patient’s desire and expertise of the gynaecologist. Different options of management have been proposed ranging from conservative to laparoscopy, hysterectomy in women with no desire for further child bearing. Vaginal delivery is an option; however, most obstetricians opt for elective caesarean section at term.

The diagnosis of neurocysticercosis in pregnancy is challenging, even in endemic areas, as other neurological conditions with similar manifestations are common. Obstetricians and physicians may be reluctant to do neuroimaging in pregnancy and often the availability is limited in endemic areas. Management of neurocysticercosis depends on the symptomatology. In those presenting with features of increased intracranial pressure early treatment is necessary, taking into consideration the gestational age and the maternal condition at presentation. Presence of intraventricular cysts causing obstructive hydrocephalus necessitates their removal due to the risk of intracranial hypertension which could be life-threatening, particularly peripartum. We report a case of a woman with intraventricular neurocysticercosis, who presented in the third trimester, and described the management dilemmas that were encountered. The differential diagnoses and other aspects of the medical and surgical management of neurocysticercosis in pregnancy are also discussed.

Hemorrhoids in pregnancy rarely require surgical treatment. Hemorrhoidectomy when done in pregnancy may result in complications for the mother or fetus. With multiple gestations (twin gestation in this case), the risk of these complications could be higher, more so, when done in the third rather than second trimester. We report the management of a 29yr old woman with twin gestation and in situ cervical cerclage who developed strangulated hemorrhoids at 30 weeks gestation. She had successful hemorrhoidectomy, continued her pregnancy until vaginal delivery of a healthy set of male twin neonates at 37 weeks gestation without recurrence.

In Pregnancy

Retroperitoneal schwannomas are though more common among females, are very much rare tumors arising from sheath of nerves. Also, extremely rare during pregnancy. Very few articles till date are there regarding retroperitoneal schwannomas that’s too in pregnant female. Usually these are symptomatic unless causing some compression to other intra-abdominal structures like vessels or bowel and usually malignant. As its retroperitoneal very difficult to diagnose it. So, with proper investigations and radiological imaging, first have to find out the differential diagnosis prior to planning for surgery.

Leflunomide is a prodrug for teruflunomide and used for rheumatic diseases. Teriflunomide is considered to be teratogenic and should be avoided in pregnancy. We describe a case of teriflunomide exposure up to the third trimester of pregnancy. A healthy baby was delivered, despite substantial drug exposure. Multiple washout procedures were required to reduce teriflunomide concentrations below the safe target concentration 0.02 mg/L.
