Blake’s pouch cyst: Prenatal diagnosis and management

Öz:
Objective: This study aimed to present the characteristic features of 19 patients who were diagnosed as having Blake’s pouch cyst (BPC) at our center.Materials and Methods: Nineteen patients diagnosed as BPC between 2015 and 2019 were included in this retrospective study. Follow-up examinationswere performed using ultrasonography (US) every three weeks up to 35 weeks of gestation. Prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed atthe time of diagnosis or during follow-up in 13 patients. MRI or transfontanellar US was performed to confirm the diagnosis of BPC after delivery. Karyotyperesults of eight patients were recorded.Results: Isolated BPC was observed in 9 (47%) patients, and associated anomalies were detected in 10 (53%) patients, including seven (36%) with thecentral nervous system and four (21%) with cardiac anomalies. Two fetuses had abnormal karyotype analysis as trisomy 21 and 13. The MRI report ofeight patients was “differential diagnosis required for Dandy-Walker complex” and only in five (26%) patients, it was reported to be compatible with BPC.Spontaneous resolution was seen in four patients. Postnatal MRI was performed in five patients, and transfontanellar US in two patients, and all MRI and USresults were consistent with BPC. During the neonatal period, abnormal neurologic development was observed in four (21%) patients, and one (5%) died.Conclusion: Although the prognosis of isolated BPC is very good with healthy neurologic development until advanced ages, death in the early neonatalperiod and abnormal neurologic development may be observed depending on the condition of the associated anomalies

Blake’s poş kisti: Prenatal tanı ve yönetim

Öz:
Amaç: Bu çalışmada merkezimizde Blake’s poch kisti (BPK) tanısı alan 19 hastanın karakteristik özellikleri sunuldu. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu retrospektif çalışmaya 2015-2019 yılları arasında BPK tanısı alan 19 olgu dahil edildi. Takip muayeneleri 35. gebelik haftasına kadar her üç haftada bir ultrasonografi (US) kullanılarak yapıldı. On üç olguya prenatal manyetik rezonans görüntüleme (MRG) tanı anında veya takip sırasında yapıldı. Doğumdan sonra BPK tanısını doğrulamak için MRG veya transfontanellar US yapıldı. Sekiz hastanın karyotip sonuçları kaydedildi. Bulgular: Dokuz olguda (%47) BPK izole olarak gözlenirken merkezi sinir sistemi anomalisi olan 7 olgu (%36) ve kalp anomalisi olan 4 olgu (%21) dahil olmak üzere 10 olguda (%53) ilişkili anomaliler saptandı. İki fetüste trizomi 21 ve 13 olmak üzere anormal karyotip bulgusu saptandı. Sekiz olgunun MRG raporuna göre Dandy-walker kompleksi için ayırıcı gerekli oldu ve sadece 5 olguda (%26) BPK ile uyumlu olduğu bildirildi. Dört olguda spontan rezolüsyon izlendi. Postnatal dönemde 5 olguya MRG, 2 olguya transfontanellar US yapıldı ve bunların sonuçları BPK ile uyumlu idi. Yenidoğan döneminde 4 olguda (%21) anormal nörolojik gelişim gözlendi ve bunlardan biri (%5) öldü. Sonuç: İzole BPK’nin prognozu ileri yaşlara kadar sağlıklı nörolojik gelişim ile çok iyi olmakla birlikte, ilişkili anomalilerin durumuna bağlı olarak erken neonatal dönemde ölüm ve anormal nörolojik gelişim gözlenebilir.
