Fetal cardiac abnormalities identified prior to 14 weeks' gestation.
OBJECTIVE An increasing number of patients are presenting at early gestational age as being at high risk for congenital heart disease, as a result of ultrasound screening by nuchal translucency. The feasibility and accuracy of fetal echocardiography was assessed in a series of pregnancies studied before 14 weeks' gestation. METHODS Echocardiography was attempted in 478 fetuses of crown-rump l...
متن کاملGestation-specific reference intervals for fetal cardiac Doppler indices from 12 to 40 weeks of gestation
We aimed to establish gestation age specific reference intervals for Doppler indices of fetal cardiac function from 12 to 40 weeks of pregnancy. In a cross-sectional observational study of singleton pregnancies, examinations were performed in 221 women evenly distributed across each week of pregnancy. Blood flow through the four cardiac valves was examined with Doppler. For the atrioventricular...
متن کاملApproach to the sonographic evaluation of fetal ventriculomegaly at 11 to 14 weeks gestation
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to report the prevalence and associated findings of fetal ventriculomegaly between 11 + 0 and 13 + 6 gestational weeks and to evaluate a sonographic approach to classify first trimester ventriculomegaly in the standard axial plane used for biparietal diameter (BPD) measurement. METHODS The ratio between choroid plexus and lateral ventricle diameter (PDVDR),...
متن کاملNormal fetal nasal bone length at 14 to 28 weeks of gestation.
The fetal nasal bone length (FNBL) is a recent sonographic marker included in second trimester genetic sonography which varies with race and ethnicity. The importance of measuring FNBL is in the prenatal diagnosis of Down's syndrome (DS), the most common chromosomal abnormality. Nasal bone hypoplasia or absence is one of the frequent features of DS. Different studies conducted in different part...
متن کاملThe sonographic identification of fetal gender from 11 to 14 weeks of gestation.
OBJECTIVE To determine the feasibility of correctly identifying fetal gender from 11 to 14 weeks' gestation. METHODS A prospective cross-sectional study in a university Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, London. A total of 524 women from an unselected population underwent a detailed assessment of fetal anatomy at 11-14 weeks of gestation (confirmed by crown-rump length) by means of tra...
