Abdominal calcifications

I am 27 weeks pregnant and a routine ultrasound scan at 19 weeks, found a 5mm calcification in the large lobe of my babys liver. Now another scan shows that the calcification has grown with the baby. The info on this subject is limited and the perinatologist at BC Womens hospital is unsure what the outcome will be when the calcium deposit is limited to the liver. Can anyone shed some light on this subject for a worried mother?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
