At 25 weeks of current pregnancy, she had laparoscopic cholecystectomy during which the fundus of the uterus was injuried with the 10mm trocar and the laparoscope was introduced in the uterine cavity, there was leakage of amniotic fluid and fetal parts,umbilical cord and plancenta were visualized. The operating surgeon changed the site of tracar and cholecystectomy was cmpleeted. The puncture at the fundus was observed, little oozing which stopped spontanously after few minutes, but amniotic fluid lekage continued and eventually stopped. She is under my care now. US examination a week later, amniotic fluid is reaccumlating and fetus alive. Any suggestions for care and mode of delivery.Thanks. > >+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > >Robert Modugno MD MBA FACOG >Marietta, GA -- “ The greatest obstacle to knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.” Daniel J.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
