Subchorionic Hemorrhage in First Trimester and in Second Trimester
Abstract: Subchorionic hemorrhage (subchorionic hematoma) is the most common sonographic abnormality in the presence of a live embryo. Subchorionic hemorrhage is bleeding beneath the chorion membranes that enclose the embryo in the uterus and appears to occur because of partial detachment of the chorion membranes from the wall of the uterus. Results: The present study reported 50 cases 76% (38 patients) with first trimester bleeding and 24% (12 patients) in 2nd trimester bleeding. This shows that subchorionic haemorrhage is more common in first trimester. The study showed most of the patients with subchorionic haemorrhage were in early reproductive age rather than the late one. 40% cases were from the age group 20-24 years. Maximum number of SCH patients were primi gravida. Distribution of SCH patients according parity was not found to be significant with maximum patients (52%) had a POG OF 8-12 weeks at the time of admission. There were total of 3 cases (6%) of anaemia for which blood was transfused. Out of 3 patients, 2 cases were diagnosed with SCH in first trimester and 1 in second trimester. Conclusion: Subchorionic hemorrhage is more in cases of 1st trimester as compared to 2nd trimester. The most important factor which effects the outcome is gestational age at which SCH was diagnosed and volume of hematoma.
