dilated fetal kidney's From: sarah (anonymous@obgyn.net) Thu, 11 Nov 1999 05:49:02 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Cindy: "Re: dilated fetal kidney's" Previous message: Erin: "Re: Am I pregnant?" Next in thread: Cindy: "Re: dilated fetal kidney's" Maybe reply: Cindy: "Re: dilated fetal kidney's" I had a 2nd trimester anomaly scan yesterday. The fetus, a boy, was 21 weeks and one day. All measurements taken fell within the normal parameters except the Kidney's, both left and right, which have too much fluid in their cortex. The radiographer said it wasn't alarming but couldn't be ignored. They have requested that I come back for a scan at 32 weeks. Could you please explain to me why this would be the case and what action they would take if the problem still persists at 32 weeks. Does this problem indicate any other possible problems such as Down's Syndrome? If they take no action till the birth, what care will my child need? I also had the same scan at 18 weeks which indicated the same problem. The radiographer however did not report it as an abnormality at this stage as she said it was probably due to the fetus having a full bladder. Thank you for your time.
