    (Universidad Internacional de La Rioja, 2012) Airam Amoroso; Gustavo Frontado; Hilarión Araujo; Verónica Montilla
    Moyamoya disease is a progressive cerebral occlusive vasculopathy characterized by stenosis or occlusion of the\nsupraclinoid portion of the internal carotid artery, mainly the middle cerebral artery and anterior cerebral artery. The\nangiographic appearance resembles "cigarette's smoke" which means in Japanese "moyamoya". We report the case of a 28\nyears old female who presented headache and focal seizures since 5 years old and a high-risk twin pregnancy at 16 years\nold, that required cesarean section; panangiography reveals a similar picture of "cigarette's smoke" consistent with\nMoyamoya disease.

    Spontaneous Uterine Rupture in Second Trimester of Pregnancy: Case report and Literature review. Uterine rupture is a solution of continuity of the uterine wall. It is an uncommon and potentially lethal obstetric complication, for both mother and fetus, that mainly occurs during the second or third trimester of pregnancy, and that is mainly associated to previous uterine surgery, thus forming a medical challenge for its difficult differential diagnosis and controversial management. We report the case of a 26 years old patient with a spontaneous gravid uterine rupture, 18 weeks of gestation and cesarean scar background. Laparotomy is conducted finding both placenta and umbilical cord attached to no-living fetus in the abdominal cavity, which confirms intraoperative diagnosis.
