Premature Ductus Arteriosus Constriction and Pulmonary Trunk Dilation in a Case of Non‐Immune Hydrops Fetalis With Trisomy 21

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Premature constriction of the ductus arteriosus accompanied by the dilation of the pulmonary trunk constitutes a rare congenital heart anomaly that may be underestimated and can result in fetal hydrops and ultimately death if not treated; therefore, it necessitates fetal post‐mortem evaluation in all cases of legal abortion or fetal death.

Norethisterone‐Associated Decidual Cast Expulsion Mimicking an Acute Gynecologic Emergency: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Decidual cast is a rare benign condition that may mimic acute gynecologic emergencies. It should be suspected in patients with severe colicky pain followed by sudden relief after tissue expulsion, especially with progestin use such as norethisterone. Accurate diagnosis and histopathology prevent unnecessary surgery.
