    Abstract Aim: The correspondence letter aims to correct the historical perspective on common bile duct perforations (CBD) during pregnancy and complete the number of published cases.
    Findings: Instead of declared article by Piotrowski et al., from 1990, and according to available English language literature, the first two descriptions of maternal spontaneous CBD perforation in pregnancy were by JT Hogan Jr in 1957 and then Maurice Abitbol in 1958. Additional six cases of this condition were found, which is an increase of 50% of published cases.
    Purpose: The purpose of this correspondence letter is to correct the historical perspective on CBD perforation during pregnancy. Also, only all published cases in English language literature can shed new light on incidence, diagnosis, treatment, and maternal and fetal prognosis from maternal CBD perforation in pregnancy.

    Abstract Background: Small bowel obstruction can occur during pregnancy, which, if missed, can lead to dire consequences for both the mother and foetus. Management of this condition usually requires surgical intervention. However, only a small number of patients are treated conservatively.
    Objective: The objective was to review the literature to determine the feasibility of conservative management for small bowel obstruction.
    Methods: A systematic search of the PubMed and Embase databases was performed using the keywords [small bowel obstruction AND pregnancy]. All original articles were then reviewed and included in this review if deemed suitable.
    Conclusion: Conservative management of small bowel obstruction in pregnant women is feasible if the patient is clinically stable and after ruling out bowel ischaemia and closed-loop obstruction.

    Abstract Background: Choledochal cysts (CC) are cystic dilatations of the biliary tract, usually diagnosed during childhood, with an estimated incidence in the general population of 1:100000. Complications related to CC include rupture, biliary obstruction, and cholangitis. Maternal CC in pregnancy are rarely reported, and there are no guidelines on optimal management.
    Aim: To systematically review maternal CC diagnosed during pregnancy or postpartum with regard to the clinical presentation of CC, the mode of treatment and delivery, and maternal outcomes.
    Methods: A literature search of cases and case series of maternal CC in pregnancy and postpartum was conducted using MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Embase. There were no restrictions on language or publication year. Databases were lastly accessed on September 1, 2022.
    Results: Overall, 71 publications met the inclusion criteria, reporting 97 cases. Eighty-eight cases were diagnosed during pregnancy and nine in the puerperium. The most common symptoms were abdominal pain (81.2%) and jaundice (60.4%). Interventions for CC complications were required in 52.5% of the cases, and 34% of pregnancies were induced. Urgent cesarean section (CS) was done in 24.7%. The maternal mortality was 7.2%, while fetal mortality was inconsistently reported. Cholangitis, CC > 15 cm, and bilirubin levels > 80 mmol/L were associated with a higher likelihood of urgent CS and surgical intervention for CC. Bilirubin levels positively correlated with CC size. There was no correlation between age and cyst dimension, gestational age at cyst discovery, and CC size.
    Conclusion: Although rare, maternal CC in pregnancy should be included in the evaluation of jaundice with upper abdominal pain. Symptomatology and clinical course are variable, and treatment may range from an expectative approach to emergent surgical CC treatment and urgent CS. While most cases were managed by conservative measures or drainage procedures, CC > 15 cm and progressive cholangitis carry the risk of CC rupture and septic complications, which may increase the rates of unfavorable maternal and fetal outcomes. Therefore, such cases require specific surgical and obstetric interventions.

    Abstract Introduction: It is not known whether appendectomy for acute appendicitis (AA) increases the Cesarean section (CS) rate and whether CS increases the likelihood of AA and appendectomy in the early puerperium. In this study, delivery type and delivery outcomes and appendectomy during pregnancy and puerperium were analyzed.
    Methods: This cross-sectional retrospective study was performed on 11,513 women, delivered during 2015-2020. Inclusion criteria were patients undergoing appendectomy for AA during pregnancy and the first 6 weeks after delivery. Evaluating parameters were age, parity, gestational week at birth, delivery type, and babies' birth weight.
    Results: Thirty-two patients underwent appendectomy: 12 during pregnancy (2 in the first trimester, 6 in the second trimester, 4 in the third trimester) and 20 women during puerperium. 58.2% of pregnant women and 65% of puerperal women were submitted to CS.
    Discussion: Half of the women who underwent appendectomy for AA during pregnancy may require urgent CS. The cause of acute abdomen in the postpartum period, especially in the first week, could be AA, especially in women delivered by CS.

    Abstract Background: Spontaneous liver rupture in pregnancy is often unrecognized, highly lethal, and not completely understood. The goal was to summarize and define the etiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, appropriate diagnostic methods, and therapeutic options for spontaneous hepatic rupture during pregnancy/puerperium (SHRP) complicated by the hypertensive disorder.
    Methods: Literature search of all full-text articles included PubMed (1946-2021), PubMed Central (1900-2021), and Google Scholar. Case reports of a spontaneous hepatic rupture or liver hematoma during pregnancy or puerperium as a complication of hypertensive disorders (preeclampsia, eclampsia, HELLP syndrome) were searched. There was no restriction of language to collect the cases. Additional cases were identified by reviewing references of retrieved studies. PRISMA guidelines for the data extraction and quality assessment were applied.
    Results: Three hundred and ninety-one cases were collected. The median maternal age was 31 (range 17-48) years; 36.6% were nulliparous. Most (83.4%) occurred in the third trimester. Maternal and fetal mortality was 22.1% and 37.2%, respectively. Maternal and fetal mortality was significantly higher 1) before the year 1990, 2) with maternal hemodynamic instability, and 3) eclampsia. The most important risk factors for SHRP were preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome. Most women had right lobe affected (70.9%), followed by both lobes in 22.1% and left lobe in 6.9%. The most common surgical procedure was liver packing. Liver transplantation was performed in 4.7% with 100% survival. Maternal mortality with liver embolization was 3.0%. Higher gestational age increases fetal survival.
    Conclusion: The diagnosis and treatment of SHRP are often delayed, leading to high maternal and fetal mortality. SHRP should be excluded in hemodynamically unstable patients with preeclampsia/eclampsia or HELLP syndrome and right upper abdominal pain. Liver embolization and liver transplantation contribute to maternal survival. Maternal and fetal mortality was significantly higher before the year 1990. Hemodynamic instability, preeclampsia, and eclampsia have a significant negative influence on maternal survival.
