To evaluate the precision of both two- and three-dimensional ultrasonography in determining vertebral lesion level (the first open vertebra) in patients with spina bifida.
This was a prospective longitudinal study comprising of fetuses with open spina bifida who were treated in the fetal medicine division of the department of obstetrics of Hospital das Clínicas of the Universidade de São Paulo between 2004 and 2013. Vertebral lesion level was established by using both two- and three-dimensional ultrasonography in 50 fetuses (two examiners in each method). The lesion level in the neonatal period was established by radiological assessment of the spine. All pregnancies were followed in our hospital prenatally, and delivery was scheduled to allow immediate postnatal surgical correction.
Two-dimensional sonography precisely estimated the spina bifida level in 53% of the cases. The estimate error was within one vertebra in 80% of the cases, in up to two vertebrae in 89%, and in up to three vertebrae in 100%, showing a good interobserver agreement. Three-dimensional ultrasonography precisely estimated the lesion level in 50% of the cases. The estimate error was within one vertebra in 82% of the cases, in up to two vertebrae in 90%, and in up to three vertebrae in 100%, also showing good interobserver agreement. Whenever an estimate error was observed, both two- and three-dimensional ultrasonography scans tended to underestimate the true lesion level (55.3% and 62% of the cases, respectively).
No relevant difference in diagnostic performance was observed between the two- and three-dimensional ultrasonography. The use of three-dimensional ultrasonography showed no additional benefit in diagnosing the lesion level in the fetuses with spina bifida. Errors in both methods showed a tendency to underestimate lesion level.

PURPOSE: to evaluate fetal structural and/or functional abnormalities by ultrasound examination and fetal echocardiography, in pregnant women positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). METHODS: we analyzed prospectively 109 HIV positive pregnant women under antiretroviral therapy (Study Group) and 200 low risk pregnant patients (Control Group). All of them were submitted to ultrasound scan and fetal and neonatal echocardiography once a month. The amniotic fluid volume, fetal growth, fetal structural and functional alteration and the perinatal outcome were evaluated. RESULTS: there were eight (7.3%) cases of fetal structural abnormality in the Study Group and two (1%) in the Control Group (p=0.616). There were four cases of congenital heart disease and four cases of hydronephrosis in the Study Group, with statistic significance (p=0.015) for the cardiac abnormalities. There were eight cases (7.3%) of oligohydramnios and 11 cases (10%) of polyhydramnios in the Study Group against two cases (1%) of oligohydramnios and none of polyhydramnios in the Control Group (p=0.004 and p<0.001). Eleven (10%) newborn babies were too small for their gestation age in the Study Group, against three (2.7%) in the Control Group (p=0,002). The incidence of preterm delivery was 8.7 and 2.5% in the Study and Control Groups respectively (p=0.041). It was observed six cases (5.5%) of fetal death in the Study Group and none in the Control Group (p=0.002). CONCLUSIONS: in the present study, we have observed higher prevalence of amniotic fluid volume and congenital heart abnormalities in the Study Group as compared to the Control Group. Statistical significance was found in both situations. The high fetal death rate found in the Study Group was probably due to fetal malformation, whereas the high prematurity rate and the prevalence of small size for the gestational age of the newborn babies were probably related to antiretroviral therapy, smoking and drug abuse.
