Patient recieved an ultrasound at gestational age of 20 weeks. All findings were unremarkable except for a small sonolucent area at the superior border of the placenta. Patient has not had any symptoms of a partial abruption or complained of any contractions, pain, or bleeding. The only finding was the sonolucent area. Question being, could this be a healing clot from an earler time of gestation or beginning of abruption. What would you think would be the outcome of this gestation.
