1. Some associations seen with single umbilical artery according to research articles are anomalies related to either of the organs like kidney, urinary system, stomach and intestines, heart, brain, or malformation of limbs. It's better to discuss with your baby's neonatologist and you can get a screening ultrasonography of abdomen and pelvis, neurosonogram plus an echocardiogram to rule out certain anomalies.
2. Bilirubin report and TSH report appear normal.
