Olgu sunumu: Doğum eylemi sırasında tanı konulan vaza previa

Nadir görülen bir durum olan vaza previa; fetal kan damarlarının, fetusun prezente olan kısmıyanında ve uterus alt segmenti boyunca, umbilikal kordon veya plasenta desteği olmaksızınseyretmesi olarak tanımlanır. Bu yazıda, doğum eylemi sırasında, amnion zarı palpe edilerek tanıkonulan bir vaza previa olgusu tanımlanmış; fetal kan damarlarının bütünlüğünü bozarak veyafetal damarları kompresyona uğratarak perinatal morbidite ve mortalite riskini belirgin ölçüdearttıran bu duruma dikkat çekilmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Case report: Vaza previa diagnosed during labor

Vasa previa is an uncommon condition which is defined when the fetal blood vessels traverse thelower uterine segment beneath the presenting part of the fetus with neither the support of theumbilical cord nor the placenta. The present manuscript describes a case of vasa previa which hasbeen diagnosed by the palpation of amniotic membrane during active labor. Therefore, this casereport aims to emphasize the clinical significance of vasa previa which increases perinatalmorbidity and mortality due to the compression or destruction of fetal blood vessels within theumbilical cord.
