Objective:To evaluate prenatal and postnatal management strategies for ovarian cysts in fetuses and infants under three months of age.Methods:This retrospective analysis included 94 cases managed at Wuhan Children's Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology (December 2013 to December 2023) with prenatal/postnatal imaging, management, and outcomes data. Cysts were stratified by diameter: <3 cm ( n=44), 3-4 cm ( n=19), and ≥4 cm ( n=31). Proportions of complex cysts and ovarian necrosis rates were compared using Chi-square tests. Results:Among 94 cases , 62 were simple ovarian cysts and 32 complex (including two initially simple cysts that converted to complex in utero). Prenatal diagnosis occurred in 67 cases (52 simple, 15 complex) without intrauterine intervention and 27 were postnatally detected (10 simple, 17 complex). Ovarian necrosis affected 93.8% (30/32) of complex cysts. Both 3-4 cm and ≥4 cm groups demonstrated significantly higher complex cyst rates [12/19 and 48.3% (15/31) vs. 11.4% (5/44), χ2=15.53 and 10.92, both P<0.001] and ovarian necrosis frequencies [12/19 and 45.2% (14/31) vs. 9.1% (4/44), χ2=17.72 and 11.07, both P<0.001] compared to the <3 cm group, whereas no significant differences existed between 3-4 cm and ≥4 cm groups (both P>0.05). Conclusions:For postnatal management, surgical intervention is recommended for complex ovarian cysts in fetuses and infants within three months of age. For simple cysts ≥4 cm, surgery is advised, while those measuring 3-4 cm warrant close monitoring due to elevated necrosis risk.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the estrogen interference property of fenvalerate in neurodevelopmental toxicity.
METHODSThirty 4-week-old healthy female ICR mice were randomly divided into 6 groups: sham operation group, ovariectomized control group, ovariectomized with estrogen (10 µg/g) group, ovariectomized with fenvalerate (5 µg/g) group, sham operation with fenvalerate group, and ovariectomized with estrogen and fenvalerate group, with 5 mice in each group. Fenvalerate was injected intraperitoneally once a day for 7 consecutive days. Mice were sacrificed at 24 h after the last exposure to separate the hippocampus. Immunofluorescence was used to detect neuron marker (NeuN) and astrocyte marker (GFAP) in hippocampal CA1, CA3, and DG regions.
RESULTSCompared with the sham operation group (numbers of NeuN-positive cells: CA1 (54.00±1.73), CA3 (59.00 ± 1.73), DG (100.00 ± 4.58)), the sham operation with fenvalerate group (CA1 (37.67 ± 2.08), CA3 (41.33 ± 1.15), DG (80.67±0.58)) and ovariectomized control group (CA1 (44.00 ± 3.00), CA3 (51.00 ± 3.00), DG (83.00 ± 1.72)) showed significant decreases in number of neurons (NeuN-positive cells) in the hippocampus (P < 0.05). Compared with the ovariectomized control group, the ovariectomized with fenvalerate group (CA1 (47.67 ± 3.21), CA3 (49.00 ± 1.73), DG (87.33 ± 4.04)) showed no significant change in number of hippocampal NeuN-positive cells. Compared with the ovariectomized with fenvalerate group (CA1 (47.67 ± 3.21), DG (87.33 ± 4.04)), the sham operation with fenvalerate group and ovariectomized with estrogen and fenvalerate group (CA1 (40.00 ± 1.00), DG (78.67 ± 2.31)) experienced significant decreases in NeuN-positive cells (P < 0.05). Compared with the sham operation group (CA3 (11.00 ± 1.12), DG (10.67 ± 1.15)), the sham operation with fenvalerate group (CA3 (18.67 ± 2.07), DG (16.33 ± 1.53)) showed significant increase in number of astrocytes (GFAP-positive) cells (P < 0.05). Compared with the sham operation with fenvalerate group, the ovariectomized with fenvalerate group (CA3 (12.00 ± 1.00), DG (11.68 ± 1.16)) showed significant decrease in GFAP-positive cells (P < 0.05). Compared with the ovariectomized with fenvalerate group, the sham operation with fenvalerate group and ovariectomized with estrogen and fenvalerate group (CA3 (16.67 ± 2.13), DG (15.38 ± 1.42)) showed significant increases in GFAP-positive cells (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe interference with circulating estrogen is an important mechanism underlying the neurodevelopmental toxicity of fenvalerate.
