fetal echogenic bowelFrom: Yiannis Nickolidakis (nickolidakis@geneticsunit.gr)Wed Aug 4 09:26:37 2004
An ultrasound scan during 18th week of a 29 years old healthy primigravida revealed certain fetal echogenic bowel. No other abnormalities were seen. She had no vaginal bleeding since now. Nuchal translucency on 12th week was <2mm. Triplo test shows 1:10.000 risk for Down syndrome. Serologic tests for congenital infections are negative. The pregnant is not carrier of a known mutation of cystic fibrosis gene. She is not positive to do an amniocentesis for fetal karyotyping. If this embryo has no Down syndrome, not cystic fibrosis, not congenital infection, what else could it has? Dr. Yiannis Nickolidakis Greece http://www.medpages.obgyn.net/geneticsunit.gr

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.
