Abstract

Various levels of fetal bowel enlargement can rarely be seen during antenatal follow-up of pregnant women. The appearance of fetal bowel enlargement can be stimulating for various conditions such as fetal bowel obstruction, chromosome and infectious disorders, cystic fibrosis. In these cases, a possible postpartum surgical intervention may be required. Ultrasonography has a limited effect on fetal gut evaluation. Therefore, accidental detection of fetal bowel dilatation in antenatal follow-up is very difficult for the clinician to identify and explain definitive lesions and clinically significant correlations. Therefore, fetal bowel dilation may be associated with different postnatal outcomes.

Özet

Gebelerin antenatal takiplerinde nadir olarak çeşitli seviyelerde fetal bağırsak genişlemeleri görülebilir. Ultrasonografik olarak fetal bağırsak genişlemesi görünümü fetal bağırsak tıkanıkları, kromozom ve enfeksiyöz bozuklukları ve kistik fibrozis gibi çeşitli durumlar için uyarıcı olabilir. Bu durumlarda doğum sonrası olası bir cerrahi müdahale gerekebilir. Ultrasonografi fetal bağırsak değerlendirilmesinde sınırlı bir etkiye sahiptir. Bu nedenle, antenatal takiplerde fetal barsak dilatasyonunun kazara saptanması, klinisyen için kesin lezyonları ve klinik anlamlı korelasyonlarını tanımlamak ve açıklamak açısından oldukça zordur. Bu nedenle fetal barsak dilatasyonu, farklı doğum sonrası sonuçlarla ilişkili olabilir.
