4.Working environment and fetal malformations
Journal of Medical Research 2005;38(5):90-96
During gestation, a fetus may be affected by factors that cause it to develop in anomalous ways. Yet it is not easy to determine what exactly are the causes of a given fetal malformation. Objectives: We investigated pregnant women's perceptions of what could be the causes of the fetal malformations they experienced. Methods: Qualitative interviews with 30 pregnant women and their families after an ultrasound scanning had detected a defect in the fetus. Results: Even though in many cases the working environment of either mother or father might have played a role in causing the malformation, the research showed that the parents themselves hardly ever blamed their working environment for the defect. The research also showed that most couples kept the malformation secret from their family, community and colleagues. This secrecy in combination with parental reluctance to consider the health impact of their working environment may make it difficult to combat possibly toxic working environments in Vietnam. Conclusions: In some cases, fetal malformations may be related to a toxic working environment. Yet in this study, a few pregnant women know that exposure to toxic chemicals at the workplace can play a role in causing a malformation in their fetus.

6.Contribution to the study on the fetal biparietal diameter curve in the fetus with gestation age above 30 weeks by ultrasound.
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1999;233(2):25-30
Fetal biparietal diameter measured with linear- array, real-time ultrasound scanner in 114 uncomplicated gravid patients from 30 to 42 weeks gestation. The date were analyzed by means of the of least-squares linear regression. The results of this analysis generated the following equation: y= 1.59x+ 30.54 (r= 0.08), (y= biparietal diameter, x= gestational age). The growth rate of the biparietal diameter has also been calculated (1.59mm/wk). With the use of this date, the error in estimation of gestational age given biparietal diameter in the interval 30 to 42 weeks gestation is +/- 14 days. Biparietal measurements provide the first reproductive determination of length of the fetus to be mesured by ultrasound throughout pregnancy.

7.Study on fetal femur length and biparietal diameter from 31 to 41 weeks of gestation
Journal of Medical Research 1999;9(1):43-46
Fetal femur length and biparietal diameter measured with a linear array, realtime ultrasound scanner in 114 normal gravid patients of 31 to 41 weeks gestation. The growth rate of the femur length has also been calculated (1.63 mm/wk), and that of the biparietal diameter was 1.59 mm/wk. With the use of these data, the error in estimation of gestational age given by femur length is 11 days, and by biparietal diameter one is 14 days. Fetal femur length should be measured rather than biparietal diameter in ultrasound diagnosis of gestation age.

8.Fetus in fetus
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1999;233(2):105-108
Fetus in fetus is a rare pathology, as a calcification tumor. The fetal form is usually located in the host intraabdomen: newborn or fetus. The images of X-ray, ultrasound and CT scanner showed that a tumor with its components suggested to a fetus or organoid tumor. The non-ossification spine without opacity was identified in the anatomy. This indicated that the finding of spine by X-ray or CT scanner is not a compulsory mark in the diagnosis of fetus in fetus

10.Diagnosis of the fetal congenital malformations by screening sonography and clinical treatment for these fetal congenital malformations at Ob-Gyn Department of Bachmai Hospital
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;503(2):10-13
From 1/1999 to 9/2004, 12720 pregnancies were examined and underwent ultrasound in Ob-Gyn Deparment of Bachmai Hospital and 64 fetuses were found with congenital malformations. The fetal malformations rate was 0.5%. Fetal malformations were detected mainly at primipa. Youngest fetal age was 12 weeks. Mean fetal age when detecting malformations was 22.8 weeks. Single malformation was 68.8%. The most common defects were anecephaly (23.4%), hydrocephaly (20.3%), holoprosencephaly (12.5%). 73.4% of pregnancies with malformation fetuses were terminated successfully by putting Cytotec to cause labour. One case was operated and one was aborted after putting cytotec failed. Failure rate of causing labour by Cytotec was 4%
