Re: Question about IUGR and polihydramniosFrom: Martin Necas and Tania Keep (exiled@clear.net.nz)Sat Mar 6 14:14:40 1999
Dear Miguel, IUGR is typically associated with oligohydramnios, while LGA (or macrosomia) may be associated with polyhydramnios. The combination of IUGR and polyhydramnios is unusual. Chromosomal abnormality as etiology of this combination should be considered especially if there is a combination of severe early-onset IUGR and sonographic signs of aneuploidy. Have you considered other fetal causes such as gastrointestinal obstruction? How about possible fetal infection (TORCH)? I will be interested to hear about your follow-up. Martin Necas, Sonographer.

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.
