Fetal hydronephrosis and EIF

2024-07-24 09:51:00
I had my level 1 scan and the dual marker test. Both were normal. I had my level 2 scan yesterday and it showed fetal hydronephrosis of 4.6 mm along with small echogenic focus in left lateral ventricle of heart. Is my baby okay ? Should I worry ? What could be the possible reasons ?

I would have ignored both these findings for the time being. Most of the echogenic focuses disappear in the subsequent scans. All that you have to do is to remember that it has been found in one of the scans and tell your Paediatrician about this when the baby is born. The same is the case with hydronephrosis. If it is seen in all the scans till delivery then the scan of baby's abdomen will be done when the baby is about 15 days old. No action indicated at present.

Ideally you should seek advice of Pediatric Nephrologist. A fetal 2D ECHO can also be performed

You need fetal echo at 22 weeks pregnancy and follow up USG after 3 weeks.
