We present a case report describing a rare cause of a common obstetric complication; pyloric web causing gross polyhydramnios. Polyhydramnios affects 1–2 % of pregnancies, and a proportion of these have an associated fetal anomaly that is not detectable antenatally. Pyloric webs are a rare cause of neonatal gastric outflow obstruction, however the exact incidence is unclear, and has been reported as less than 1 per million live births [ 1 2 ]. Treatment is by surgical excision.

Background The clitoris has long been ignored in medical literature and teaching, with the first paper describing its anatomy only published in 1993. It is essential that those working in women's health understand the anatomy of this important female sexual organ. Aims The aim of this study was to assess the level of knowledge of the anatomy of the clitoris across five cohorts in a busy teaching maternity hospital in Ireland.
