🚨 New FIGO guidance on preventing post-caesarean sepsis Post-caesarean sepsis is a leading cause of maternal mortality, with infection rates as high as 20% globally. The new review in the @IJGOLive, provides evidence-based strategies to prevent these infections – including antibiotics 30–60 mins before surgery, vaginal & skin antiseptic prep, safe surgical practices, like glove changes after placental delivery and early recognition and rapid treatment to save lives. 🌍 With 75,000 maternal deaths annually linked to sepsis, implementing these practices is critical. 📖 Read the full review and help improve maternal outcomes worldwide: ow.ly/LZzw50WUKgx @Edbuggie #MaternalHealth #Caesarean #SepsisPrevention

@Nzeyinno The reasons for this are unknown. This leads to two aortic arches, one on either side of trachea and esophagus of the baby forming a circle of vessels. If this circle is too tight, it can cause symptoms in the baby due to the compression of trachea or esophagus.

@GHertier What is the anatomy after the arch? Do they unite to form a single aorta?

Double Aortic arch . Most of the time it is the only anomaly in the baby and rarely it can be associated with other cardiac abnormalities.Rarely it can be associated with a genetic cause such as a deletion on one chromosome, called “22q11 deletion”.

@Nzeyinno Double aortic arch is an anatomic variation of the aorta, a large blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body that has an arch-like configuration at its top, it is a congenital variation which means it is present since before birth.

In fetal megacystis with longitudinal blad- der diameter of 7–15 mm there is a risk of about 25% that the fetus will have a chromosomal defect but in the chromosomally normal group there is spontaneous res- olution of the megacystis in about 90% of cases.
